Agreed. I know guitars made anywhere in Asia are having huge delays and even when shipped I have heard the port in Los Angeles has been a huge log jam for USA retailers. And then dealing with any restrictions on distancing and such could make manufacturing a challenge.

I ordered mine on Jan 26, and I talked to my Rep Monday. He said heās just not sure if they will receive enough of them in the first batch to cover me. He said there were a lot of orders placed last year. I donāt fault anyone because I canāt have what I want right now. Iām sure Neural would love to have every order complete. Considering everything thatās been going on the last year, and the fact that they sold thousands more than they expected in the first year, I think everyone has done a fairly good job. I will patiently wait until itās available, and hopefully by then there will be software updates and many many amps on the cloud to try.
SW doesnāt know anything except your position. (ask your rep for your number in line) Mine was 1/29 number 1008. Itās not hard to figure out that with the first order sent to SW of 500, there is a long way to go. Some drops outs or cancellations might hep, but not that much.

Well that makes two of us. I mess with guitar stuff and study law several hours a day. Iām not sure which part of ābecoming an attorneyā seemed like a good idea at this point. Guitars and likened equipment are the only things that make me happy these days.

I ordered Jan 14 and was told I would be in the third batch around the last week of May possibly first week of June if all went well. They are nit getting enough in the first batch for all of last year
I should add I canceled and snagged one off Reverb. Tier two never opened and while I paid a bit more it was a very fair price. Most there are ripoffs. He listed decent, I made an offer and have had it two days.
Hopefully you donāt have any issues is warranty is ever needed!
I took all that into consideration. The two year warranty from Sweetwater is awesome. The guys at Neural are great though. They said they are setting up a contract with someone in the US for repairs. I am not sure if it will be Sweetwater or someone independent. They donāt even have a registration yet. Right now Doug said failure is less than one percent and they have taken care of everyone.
After getting the news that I might not get the QC until October, I also bought one off of Reverb. I paid a little bit more than I would like, but Iāve got gigs lined up in June and need to get my new rig up and running with my new Maton Mini EMD6 git, so itās all good. Itās just money. 
The outfit I bought it from said theyād be willing to send it back to Neural for me if thereās ever an issue. It sounds like Neural is being pretty cool about send replacements/fixes, thus far. 
My QC arrives tomorrowā¦Iā¦cannotā¦waitā¦
Iād be interested in how many of the first 500 SW orders went into cancellation or no payment available status.

Wellā¦as a follow up to my post over a month ago, I received my QC yesterday, 5/10. I placed my order with SW on 11/27. The next few weeks will decide whether I hang onto it or not. Overall, the whole experience has left a bitter taste in my mouth. Perhaps Iām getting too old to be one of the ones is wants to believe in flawless execution of a product launch or maybe Iām just being too naive about the whole issue. Nonetheless, itās here and we will see if it will live up to the hype.
Pretty sure half of the sweetwater shipments are on Reverb for 2600-3000$
Looks like 35 units so far have been sold on Reverb. Avg price seems to be about $2250.
Several more available mostly priced higher.
Its a step up from the HX Stomp Iāve been using. Best unit Iāve owned. The effects are a joke.
Flawless execution? Nope.
Great foundation with room to grow, yes!
Letās see how well the respond to the community of owners once they catch up with preorders.
I got mine from Sweetwater on Friday 14 May after waiting since the end of December the 26th. I had been told several times it would be one more month. They did make me call them back to confirm the shipping details since it had been so long. Given the long line of stalled production lines of cars and RVās due to chips for the electronics, I pushed it all off onto the crazy times. I am sure everyone would have gladly done it faster.
