Probably depends on where the various distribution hubs are and your location in relation.

Nah. My Messenger went Toronto > Chicago > Pittsburgh > Memphis > Atlanta.

Interstate 65 goes from Chicago straight to Nashville, Interstate 75 goes from Nashville straight to Atlanta. Hub-schmub. Three freaking weeks and an extra 1,000 miles.

Just to add to the score, recently my Messenger took three weeks to arrive and detoured over 1,000 extra miles as it zigzagged its way from Chicago to Atlanta, "thanks" to the USPS.

This was the second "three-weekish" USPS train wreck in the past several months for me, the third in the last six months. Never had anything like this in the many years before the current Postmaster General, ever.

Almost as if DeJoys budget cuts were a bad idea for USPS.

I’m throwing these on the trade block if anyone has a Broughctave. The Monocomp (not pictured) is up for trade as well. PM me if interested.

Today’s configuration. Sounds decent.
RFE back on. SVD off Broughctave back on. Works much better in my preamp section. Transboot is always on now. Cannot live without it. Bug Drive back. Valve caster out. The BD is more voiced IMO. Calamity out. Helion in. Adds a nice crisp driven sound into the Modulation Station.
That Mod Station is perfect for feeding any hot signal into it like the Helion.

Is anyone aware of a pedal that’ll sound somewhat close to the P15 and is readily available (I.e. no Broughton Fliptop?) I made the mistake of bringing mine to band practice a few times now. I’ve gotten so many compliments I think they’ll kick me out if I leave it at home.

You can try to get close with a Tech 21 VT Bass, Runoffgroove Ginger, or One Control Crimson Red. And if you find them in the classifieds here or on reverb, a Slampeeg Bee or Fliptop (but they go really fast). Folks have reported some success with the HX Stomp, but for that kind of money I'd rather get another P15.

I don’t see a problem.
