As much as I am certain the new echo will be superb, I don't want to commit to something before I have seen or heard. I was under the impression that when the "list" was started, it was on the basis that, when or near to when, the units would be ready, the names would be informed from the top of the list and they would have first opportunity to purchase, Has this now changed. ...

Hi Jim, Nothing has really changed. Some people have been saying they definitely want one (or more than one) so I have been noting that on the list. I will try to make sure those people get their units from the first batch and if demand is high enough I can try to get more of them made sooner. If someone changes their mind it doesn't really matter. Everyone else will receive an email with a price and release date, like I always said. Either way, I hope to be able to let everyone know before the unit is available, which I hope will be in December. Regards, Charlie

ALL Members Affected By This Post.. As I started this post I feel a certain responsibility towards it although I must repeat that anything I contribute is unofficial and definitely subject to correction from Charlie/John.
So that said I feel to save Charlie time which is valuable right now and to allow him to get on with the project I would like to take the liberty to summarize the more important points as per Charlie's posts.
To repeat the following is not "set in stone"
1.The target date for availability is before Christmas 2014,Subject to all programs being finalised. 2.The first batch is likely to be 100 units, unless definite sales reach a level where more units will be requested on the initial run. 3.The current estimated price will be around £599 GDP, Charlie cannot take deposits as he most likely will not be handling the sales directly. 4.The sales and deliveries will most likely be direct from the manufacturer. 5.Charlie will notify the manufacturer of those definite sales, but I imagine that priority cannot be guaranteed as the makers will have their own methods and ordering procedures in place. 6.Obviously at the appropriate time Charlie will notify all those involved as to any information required.
Hope this helps... PA

Hi Mel, I have been thinking about the level of interest. I haven't yet counted the number of people on my list who have said they definitely want one(or more than one) but I am fairly sure it is far less than 100. I think the best thing will be for everyone who definitely wants one (who has not let me know this before) to let me know as soon as possible so I can then pass the info on to the manufacturer. Then they can probably consider increasing the first run quantity if they need to. Hi Rob, I have you down for two units already, but I have added that you definitely want them! Regards, Charlie Hi Charlie, Thanks for that, please add me to your positive list. Thanks, Mel

Hi Charlie, First I would like to thank you for all your hard work. I would appreciate it if could put me on the positive list. Would I be right in assuming that unlike the Q20 you don't need a battery in your new Unit to maintain its memory. Best Regards Carl

Post by Charlie Hall on Aug 24, 2014 14:37:29 GMT
Hi Carl, Thanks. You are on my list so I assume you definitely want one, so I have added a note to that effect. You are right, no battery is needed. The Preset patches are permanent anyway, and the User defined patches will also be held in memory indefinitely. Regards, Charlie

Hi Charlie, I think you have me down on the list, please can you ADD me to the list of positive buys please, many thanks and take care, Brian.

Hi Roger, That would be possible in theory but I don't think it will be likely to happen as we are making sure this is going to be as good as it can be. The user will also be able to customise patches and place them in the user area and also assemble patches changed or unchanged in the user area for a preferred set order.
Hi Brian, I have added a note to my list that you definitely want one. Thanks.
Regards, Charlie

To Charlies comment about the laugh he had, thinking his esteemed unit would reside on my Christmas Dinner Table beside the Turkey. Well being in Austria traditionally in our Family your unit would be partnering with an original Viennese Schnitzel! accompanied with home made potato Salad grandmother style. But as all the other`s I have made up my mind in this Long waiting time, Amanda is also not replying to any of my mails since February so my bank account (Pay Pal) is ready for the purchase, whenever informed by your supplier.
regards shadowkarl

Karl, Yes I imagine you heard the first prototype which was around if I remember correctly about 3 years ago,Charlie also demostrated it at a Shadows club event, all of which seems a long time ago now. Not being directly incolved with the unit or Charlie's business for some time now it's hard for me to remember and be accurate. Anyway there has been a hell of a lot of work and modifications done on the unit since then and I would say that it's far better now than what was heard back then. Like everybody else all I need now is to get my hands on one !! PA
