Sounds good. I was surprised to receive a notification last night that it had shipped. I should have it later today.

I hope you get it Jim!

Yes, that sounds like a sweet deal, and a great location!

A basement guitar studio is in your future.

Well that went about as poorly as it could. We passed on house #1 and we went after house #2 with the kind of offer that fell solidly into the "an offer you can't refuse" category fully expecting to have a deal by the end of the afteroon. Unfortunately the sellers basically decided they were no long sure they really wanted to sell their home after all. In the mean time house #1 sold that morning. So we're basically financially secure homeless people.
Oh well. I guess there are worse things to be. At least we complete quarentine tonight and neither of us have shown any symptoms and for that I am grateful. I still don't own a device with a speaker bigger than 2" but that has to wait until I have an address to which they can be delivered.

Oh, man! Sorry to hear that, Jim!

Good luck with the spark, Copablitz. I’ve watched endless YouTube clips and that one doesn’t convince me. Only distorted sounds is a red flag to me. The reason I picked the THR is the stereo which allows satisfactory playing at low volumes. But I hope I’m wrong and the spark gives good clean tones and spatial sound.

i can't really speak to the authenticity of each amp (curiously, some guitars or pickups prefer certain amps) but i'm very pleased with the feel and the tones i'm getting. and for what i paid, i'm set for life and have no reason to complain. there is a lot of crap to wade through (if you choose to), some of the sims are just ancient at this point, and i prefer my softube plugins for marshall sounds, but amplitube is still a winner after all these years.
