Played through the Helios yesterday. It's a massive sounding amp… and they are in production. I saw lots of them on the benches in the shop.
 
I still wish he would have released
That solo jet 70 that amp killed in the
2012 la amp fest
 
As soon as this thing hits the stores my Friedman Modded Marshall will be up for sale. No doubt about it.
 
Still no one with a Helios? This is complete shit.

And I'm a Bogner owner.

For a handwired amp at $1000 less than the BE100, and with the Bogner trademark tonal stamp of tone? It's all win.

In a Nutshell...

I hope that tone is in there. Arguably the best AIC song ever.
 
That's the reaction from every dealer that took a sucker's money for a pre-order.

I find it humorous that some are doubting the release of the Helios and questioning the long wait time, as if it might not make it into market. It's an amp coupled with celebrating the 25th Anniversary of Bogner's business. It's the Ron Burgundy of amps - it's kind of a big deal.

Some prototypes are specifically designed for trade shows like NAMM to gather possible interest, and some don't make it into production (like the Jet City Earhart I own); but the Helios was demoed months ago and by some fairly famous guitar players so I doubt it's just a flash in the pan.

Plus amp like this are in a very niche market, the opposite of Line 6 if you will.


Will you folks have some patience? Geez :cheers: In my opinion, Bogner could pull all the advertising of the Helios for 4 years, then suddenly drop it on the market and it would STILL sell. :D
 
Dibs on the first Helios that a forum member buys and then decides to flip

:D

Anyone???? :confused:
The Helios are currently being built on the benches at Bogner. My friend visited the Bogner Shop this week. They are busy gearing up for NAMM. Expect the Helios to be officially realeased at NAMM. I'll post a few shop photos of the Helios later today.

As long as it's not Steve_K. Because then you'd have to wait for shipping from the land of sand, and...

I will be curious to see what else Bogner has in store ,Since Helios was announced in Oct , I am sure he has 1 or 2 more products.
