Did it arrive?

I can tell you, I've been absolutely digging my V-18 for nearly two years now. It's my go-to amp for everything except outdoor gigs.

I have a Reverend Alltone 1250 speaker in mine, and it took a LOOOOOONG time to break in. Sounded pretty lame at first. I know they ship with different speakers now, but keep that in mind.

The first few hours of playing, pretty bad. Then it slowly got better and better and after maybe 20-30 hours of playing it started really sounding good.

I finally built a little two button RCA footswitch out of a Hammond box. Now I have tremolo and reverb on a footswitch...Sweeeet. I can't believe it took me so long. Tremolo is a cool effect to have available.
