Hendrix pack is cool for the smart play along, it changes tones/effects in sync with the jam tracks which is neat. The bum notes remain though…

Is that conjecture - or have you read somewhere they'll be doing that?
I believe they announced it :-(

Got myself another Spark, shouldn't have sold my first one. I realize now how great it is for practicing songs and improv.

One thing that's doing my head in though is connecting to the app (tone control) via bluetooth. I use my Samsung phone for this. Sometimes it connects and sometimes it doesn't.. it's like there's a special process. Any secrets to this?

Hmmm can't say I've experienced that, got the latest firmware on it?

Dunno! Could be your phone? Got another device you can test with?

How do you guys order this?

I checked their website and I cannot find NZ listed for delivery. Amazon can deliver but the PG website has a $40 off and free bag atm.
