Is NZRS getting an AFD100?

Postby slash-ed on Fri Jul 30, 2010 11:09 am

Probably not of interest to that many people here - but is NZRS bringing in the Marshall AFD100? I've heard it's going to be a limited run of about 2300 pieces. I'd love to see what it's all about, I've never chased the Appetite tone myself, but as we all know I'm a huge Slash fanboy so anything's possible...

Bump this.

I'm going to start shining my good tyre kicking boots just in case.

AFD100 + 0% interest financing ( hint hint ) = potential financial disaster

Speaking of which, seriously though, I wonder when the next 0% sale is coming to a RS near you?? I feel the need to randomly buy something, not sure what yet. May have to be an amp of some sort...

I have placed an order for a bunch of these amps - though I have not yet had confirmation back yet *crosses fingers*

There has been so much customer interest in these amps it's ridiculous. I'm pretty sure I'll be able to presell a bunch before they arrive. It's like the AFD Les Pauls. None of those every saw the light of our shops - they were ALL presold.

The AFD100 amp looks BADASS!!!!

IIRC, that one was 100W Plexi based, rather than the Jubilee 25/55, right? And lotsa mods, dunno what.

Cool, thanks Matt. Dare I ask for indication of price??? I'm about 90% certain it'll be out of my means, but doesn't hurt to dream...
