I had no idea the number of Merlin amps was so low...! Actually, I tried to order another cab from the guy who made them, but he couldn't figure out how to handle the VAT and then stopped replying to my e-mails... didn't REALLY need it, anyway
And yes, it is a passive amp, which is very cool. All pots are cut only, with normal volume at 10. I have a lousy pic of my stack here:
That's one of the best amps I've seen and tried so far.
I'm still toying with the idea of getting one!
Very nice indeed!!!

I didn't realize they were still available anywhere - how would you go about getting one? If I get rich I want a backup...!
My 'baby' isn't there yet it's Cora 1139.
Looking forward to seeing your pictures, it's a tough one for me to get just right
The R8 is coming soon!!
Can't wait for mine
I just saw the pics...!!!
That is an amazing singlecut design ! And some great finishes and other new features as well
I really don't need more GAS... for at least a few years. But the R8 is one good looking bass. Hope I get to play one when Jens can squeeze me in for a visit.
That was quick
I really like the silver and the Mercedes Ruby ones.
Not really a fan of the sparkly finish, but Jens seems to love that a lot
The electronics are also "new" in a way.
They're the same as the Cora C3 but can be switched passive/active => in passive the "high"-knob becomes "Tone"-knob.
With triplebuckers, if you pull 2 of the knobs you switch to single-coil. So, no more separate switches for triple/single.
Mine will be somewhat different.
It'll probably have smaller spacing (like the Cora), 34.5" scale, triplebuckers, and some changes in the design.
I'll go to Deidesheim in February to discuss everything and choose the top/finish. Then wait some more for it to be finished.
I think I asked Jens for a single-cut in the summer of 2010.
It's been a long wait, but I'm sure it'll be worth every minute.
Edit: I saw your Okon. Nice!!!

Just a little more patience, many more to add
Did you plan which dates you're going, Frizzle? It seems Jens isn't there on all the dates I've suggested so far, and right now I'm hoping he'll send me some dates that work soon.
Thanks for the info on the new electronics, btw, it's nice to know what options there are.

No fixed date yet, but it'll be some days during the week.
That is if Jens doesn't forget of course.

This picture was taken this week @ Winter NAMM 2012.

I've just realised the one on the right even has a sword inlay!
I have a friend at the show who has the UK Ritter dealership. I'll ask him to look out for these as well.
