Fran, the title of you post suggested that this was a recent purchase. Sorry if I misunderstood.

Donny, to be completely honest, just the thought of packing that (really heavy) amp up for shipment, gives me the shivers. I could just let UPS pack it but I think that would be prohibitively expensive. I would let you or any SZ'er have it at a really good price but at the moment I think I'll just sit on it until that SA-1000 becomes available. I do use it when we rehearse at my house (rare) but, for all practical purposes, it's as new. I would suggest (if it's practical) that you try to use Fran's on a gig similar to the kind of gig you intend to use it on. BTW, I may also be willing to part with my 808-S if the SA-1000 works out (especially if I have to get two). I'll keep you posted.

George, if you're listening, when is the SA-1000 likely to become available and what will the street price be?
