Well...... true to form the new GK MB2 500 has been pushed back to
July 7 from June 22. Hopefully, they will get this amp to market before the snows set in.

Frankly, I'd rather they take their time. I still hope to see it before the snows come.

Actually we don't get all that much snow in St. Louis anymore. We get the occasional buster storm. I was alluding to the fact that we might not see the MB2 50O for awhile. The "new" revised date for the release is late August. See Bob's post above.

My order w/ 123 is extended, so maybe we'll actually see these in sept?

Thanks for the update. As soon as Guitar Center gets one I give it
a road test. It would be great if this amp had a similar voicing to the
older 200MB's or even the MBS. With the additional power it could
be the affordable alternative to the other amps available for Double Bass, with perhaps, a warmer sound.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Nov 2007 Location: Charleston SC | | | I think they are probably shipping from GK direct since its a unit for testing. My guess would be that other units are on the way to the dealers now, and orders will start to be fulfilled in the next few days. I keep looking on Music123 site daily, but nothing showing yet...
