Welcome guys!

This was one of the players I was really looking forward to purchasing but ended up getting a DX80 from lack of updates on the thread... But, based on all of the bugs the DX80 has, I think the M2 would be largely competitive so I would like to audition it.

Welcome Vividcard!

For anyone on the fence about trying out the M2 on the American or Canadian tour, I posted my review of the pre-production M2 and M2 Pro yesterday (LINK). Still some kinks to iron out and features to be added, but the sound is very good and the M2 is well worth trying out.
 
We only have one Canadian on board so far, so would love to hear from @Peter West @peareye @B9Scrambler @RedJohn456 @steved21 @DigitalFreak. Are you in? How about @elnero @dweaver @GL1TCH3D?

We can work the schedule around people's availability, especially if you have a window that's super bad or super good. I'll be ready to ship fairly soon. As an added bonus, the M2 will be touring with a dance partner - the 2016 edition B1 amp (see @nmatheis' excellent review of the updated 2016 edition here). So this is really a two-fer tour...
