I ordered a VFB-2 two months ago. As soon as I ordered I emailed Barge for an ETA and they emailed back saying there is a 3 week build time, and I now see that it says 4-5 weeks on their website.
I have emailed a few times in the past two weeks to see if theres any progress but they aren't replying.
Just curious if anyone has heard from Barge recently? |

I've heard nothing but good things about them though, I'm not too worried, the anticipation on the other hand is killing me. |

On a serious note, I haven't called yet because it costs, but I know it might come to this eventually. |

Previous attempts to contact him were quite the opposite which is why I'm worried. I'll try them via phone and let you all know how that works.

Really well built, I've only had a quick play but it seems really cool. |

|  | Seer of all that is done there Accessories Sales Associate, Guitar Center Rancho Cucamonga, CA | | Join Date: Apr 2007 Location: Upland, California | | Yeah. Sometimes the Barge team gets extremely backed up with orders. When I got my custom VFB-2, it took quite a while. Geoff was able to send me an email every few weeks to let me know how everything was progressing though. I'm pretty interested in their envelope filter, wonder if it's gonna be anything like a Meatball...  | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
