See above. It may happen, it has been requested but no demo during a preorder period is not unique to this product nor unique to IK. I'll do what I can but there's always the option to wait and not save the $ (which is also neither unique to this collection nor IK). Edit - I appreciate your business suggestion, and as stated earlier in the thread it has been relayed (I've been doing so since the first day we announced it). If it doesn't happen, though, this will be no different than other preorders and nobody is putting a gun to anybody's head to preorder and it will be available afterward... just at a higher price.

...and now we are releasing AmpliTube MESA/Boogie tomorrow but the preorder pricing remains until September 1st. So you can demo it starting tomorrow and decide within the week.

I've done this all too many times if there's a sale price or introductory price that seems irresistible. Worst case ever: Izotope Iris, but there have been plenty of others. I am learning and mostly resist these days. However, I'll be buying the FF Pro-C2 upgrade without bothering to test it. I'd probably buy anything from FF without further ado.

Outstanding!! I started looking into buying new tubes for my Mesa Boogie DC-3 and I was looking at about $165 US to replace them all, so this is more in line with what I can afford at this point. (Yes, there's nothing like the real thing, but my current tubes aren't all that terrible). Thanks for staying with this. I'll be checking it out and if it's as good as the other Amplitube stuff and sounds like Boogie, I'll be getting it!
