It got here today! No pics or clips yet. I only had a few minutes to fiddle around with it, then I had to go study.

Initial impressions:

Fit and finish are great. The "carbon fiber" covering covers, the knobs all turn smoothly.

Incredibly versatile. Each model sounds different, and each version of the model sounds great, and they are all useable.

Effects are good.

Controls are very easy to use, and are intuitive. Just twist and go.

The amph came triple boxed from AMS. It survived the trip well, methinks.

I can't wait to restring my Strat and plug into the FUSE software. This little sucker is very tweakable as it stands. I can't imagine what "deep editing" is gonna be like.

One complaint.

One of the Bassman models comes with a tremelo effect, and I can't seem to turn it off. The underlying tone is way cool, and I want the effect gone. Maybe I can "deep edit" this preset?

No report as yet on the tones I was getting... My strings were completely shot, and need to be replaced first.
