BACKORDER!!!

[Roadman]

I just received a notice from M.F. that my Squier VM Jazz is backordered, with a due date of July 7.

I feel like Charlton Heston at the end of Planet of the Apes when he saw the Statue of Liberty.

DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!!!!

It is the end of the world as we know it.

I've had a bass on order since 11/06. Might get it by 11/08, if I'm lucky.

 

[pasta4lnch]

be sure to follow up - i've had things on back order a while there. after a certain time the order gets cancelled in their system. . . bloody apes!!

 

[thycrusader]

and I feel fine.

I see what you did there.

 

[Roadman]

Thanks for the heads up, Pasta. I'll keep an eye on it.

I just checked the site, and it is still listed as "In Stock & Ready to Ship"

Those dang M.F.ers! (Musicians Friend I mean of course)

Where was the story on here where a dude waited a decade for a bass. He ordered it out of high school and got it for his 30th birthday or something silly.

It's a good read.

That's not very encouraging.


The question is, did they end up charging him more for a "vintage" or did he get a great deal when you factor in inflation?

Damn Brother..........


Be glad you didn't order a Ric......

 

[fourstringdrums]

It's only a few weeks. That's not too bad. It could be worse.

 

[ClassicJazz]

Don't feel bad.....I have to wait 6-8 months for the Sadowsky I just ordered!!

That's what I did. Their estimated arrival is January '09.

Ah......quit yer whinin!

I ordered one from a source and I have 27 more days to wait. I ordered from them due to a fantastic price and since I have a bass or two around here to goof around with, I can wait.

Okay, I got that out of my system...as has been said before, be sure to contact them (on the 7th) to make sure they don't cancel on you etc....stay on top of it, don't wait for them. I know M.F. has a pretty good rep, but still....with the internet, things happen.

Good luck and you'll be enjoying your bass long before I enjoy mine!
