  Y'know, you could probably just get that plug replaced by a local nerd with intermediate soldering skills...  though if I were in your shoes I'd be nagging Fender/Aurisonics for an all-expenses-paid do-over.  Kind of not cool what they did there.

Haha. True, but that means more time away from them. Im thinking about just letting it ride until it cuts out completely on the right side and then send them in. Damn dilemma.

I'm planning on picking those up soonish. 

the thread and have been helpful for me, since I'm familiar with the tastes of the initial group of reviewers. the reference comparisons are good. very sweet value for the asking price.

If I can get them down to 150 during the sale with coupons I'm probably going to bite... it will hurt my wallet but... I'm a sucker for good deals and that seems like a good one

yeah if you can find one at that price it'd be a pretty darn good deal. there's plenty of other hybrids I've tried costing 50 to 100$ more, and they might offer slight resolution and timbre, but the tuning is really well done. Very very seducing.

So, got in contact with support at fender and they r sending me a working pair to replace the defective Rockets I have in hand. Should have never sold my kickstarter pair. My nieces r still going strong and I've only had a issue with white retail variant. Wish me luck with these fellas.

Luckily my set are still going strong h34r: but I wonder has anyone here tried/compared the AAW Q as a potential eventual replacement?

Email bcarroll@fender.com
 
Tell her your situation and I am sure she will get back to you soon. My situation was heightened because I sent my Rockets for a fix in December and when I got them bak in March, the problem I had with the left channel still persisted. Good luck  =)

Hi my rockets cable broke. Is there anyway I can get the cable repaired?
Worth noting is that I'm not the original owner

Well, about a month ago I finally got to reach a Fender representative, after some serious time spent searching for a way to contact them from Europe and get my faulty wiring problem sorted out.
 
Salesperson asks me where I bought the Rockets, I reply promptly.
 
Since then, absolutely nothing, and my Rockets are back in the drawer. Pretty disappointing.
 
This is probably the very last time I buy a Fender/Aurisonics/whatever product. I'm done wasting my time.

 

[bcarroll]

Hi Voyageur,
 
I'm sorry you've had such a difficult time getting a response from someone. Will you please email me at bcarroll@fender.com? I'd like to see if we can't figure something out for you.

Will there be a possibility that Fender will bring back the Rockets?

Doubtful....

 

[kyuuketsuki]

Doubtful....

Which is extremely unfortunate.

I'm pretty sure they will. It's a matter of when if you ask me.
