The GB shuttle waiting room

just found out my head is backordered another 30 days-from mf. I would cancel and order from somewhere else, but no one seems to have any! Anyone know where there are 6.0 heads in stock?

Your best bet would be to order from one of the online stores that has them in stock. It may take some digging to find who just got a shipment. I orderd mine from a local store that orders as needed so it is taking a bit longer for me to get mine. I'm not complaining I knew it was going to take a while, but it saved me a few bucks and I got local support if I need it.

Terry,

How can you need that much power? Or is it just for fun? Cranking my three 12's off the 1200 is beastly enough. Can't imagine pushing 4, although I'd sure like to try it!

Sorry Jason... didnt mean to skip your question, I just got all excited at my 2nd shuttle getting here unexpectedly.

Well the truthful answer is I may never need 1200 watts and 4x12's ( hough I'll never admit that in public, oops... I guess I just did)... but it sure is good to have for our outdoor gigs in case we get crazy loud with a great crowd. (It has happened) I always like having the headroom... just in case.

Yes, you too are only 1 x 12 away from sonic heaven... do it, get the 4th one.... you'll be glad you did!!
... and Dennis will show you the secret handshake!! LOL....

I bought a 3.0T combo on March 11.

Ordered an 1x10 extension cab the same day.

Was told on April 4th it was being shipped.

Just talked to my dealer Sat, now saying it will be 10 more days.

He said that, the demand for Shuttles are so great
that wait for orders now, maybe up to two months.:cool:

My suggestion is, if you haven't ordered yours yet, to call around to non-interenet dealers to and try to claim one that they have coming in for stock. I bought mine last week from a dealer who just happened to have a new shipment arrive. I ordered mine and it shipped out that day. The next day I checked back and they had sold out, all in a single day.

Demand is just high right now. Fortunately it's comforting to know that Genz is doing everything they can to accomodate the supply side. It's in their best interest to move these as fast as they can. I can promise you that it is worth the weight, pun intended.

I has NOTHING to do with us getting product to MF....or any other dealer.

Orders are handled on a first in, first out basis. And, if a dealer orders 24 or 100 pieces, as some are, then they will have stock when their order comes in. If a dealer orders two pieces, then they may not.

For the record, I don't know how many MF orders. I'm only illustrating that some here are waiting two weeks, others are waiting six weeks and this shouldn't reflect on GB. I don't no, nor can I comment on individual stores ordering habits. I just know that we ship product every week.

Not knocking GB. I understand that this extremely high initial demand for the product was probably a bit unexpexcted for you. But the buying experience is still none the less, frustrating. I was more knocking MF for thier policies. When I clicked that buy now button, it said there was a 2 week backorder. Then it turned into 30 days and now 60 days. If I get another email delaying it, I'm cancelling the order the order with them!

Dealer friend got them to push my back-order. ( 6 weeks)

Got my 1x10 extension cab today.

My 3.0T combo , kills with the extension cab.

Very gig worthy with drums now.

More head room. bigger, more punch.

I just got word that it may be the end of May before my 6.0-12t ships :crying::crying::crying::crying:

I ordered it on March 31st. Apparently the combos are taking longer then the heads. Maybe I should have just bought the head. I actually found a place that had it in stock and everything when I ordered but decided to wait for the combo. I just didnt know it would be this long. :hmm:

That does not sound right. I have the same order placed on the same day and I am being told next week with a slim chance of this week. Did you local music store sit on the order and not place it? I actually paid for mine on the 28th of March, but being after hours on a Friday the order was actually placed on Monday the 31st.
