I did it.... I lost my mind.
I ordered one of these today.  It should ship in the 21st. I hope I like it... I think I will. Recording is my hobby guitar playing is my passion. I hope this is a lifetime investment. Julien

Thanks, it already has!!! I figure, I already have tinnitus, if it makes me sterile.. I don't want anymore kids. IF the police come, I will have new friends!! Yes, I am more excited than I have been in a LONG time. I cannot tell you how many times in life I have settled for something less than I wanted... not this time, and I just found a pickup I forgot I bought. A Pearly Gates... I was so surprised! I also have a PAF PRO and a JB. I had them in a LP Studio and the JB sounded GREAT but the PAF PRO was dark and muddy. Now I have a LP Classic and have been wanting to change the ceramic stock pickups. I'm thinking that the PG in the neck and the JB in the bridge might just SHINE. I have a Suhr 2001 LE with P-90s that I can't wait to hear with this amp. It makes a good amp REALLY sound good... I have no regret. I am excited. You only live once roight? Now I think I can sell a few amps and pedals.

That's great! Congrats!
I played many gigs with that amp years ago ('80;s)...it had a lot less knobs LOL. Great amp. It was beautiful too.
A friend had one that had the magic marker number..that's how the very first ones were marked..he tracked down and talked with the original owner...Carlos Santana.

Thanks everyone. I was really nervous leading up to placing the order but once I ordered it I became happy. I downloaded the manual and am reading it and going to re-read it. From what I have gotten between the lines... some of the controls do more than what they are labeled that they do. I need to learn where to start with it so I can tweak the right things in the right order so I can make it sound good. I'll figure it out though and have fun doing it.
I'll post some pics when it gets here and some clips when I figure it out.
Thanks again!

Congrats! I wish I could lose my mind like that! But I'd have to find it first - I think it's buried somewhere here in one of these piles of (far less impressive) gear. 
 In order, then, to discover the limit of deepest tones, it is necessary not only to produce very violent agitations in the air but to give these the form of simple pendular vibrations. - Hermann von Helmholtz, predicting the role of the electric bassist in 1877.
