Thanks for the info. I've already started to read up, and most importantly, paid the deposit today. Now the wait begins...

I think you right in time. You may get lucky, the final assembly already in progress and there is always big chance that somebody out of 40 buyers will  cancel   last minute for various reasons, so you may wait only few months.

^ Hear, hear. If any one should decide to pass their slot, look no further 

 

[purrin]

crap I just passed my slot a week ago...

 

[mwilson]

Double crap

I don't do any trading of reservations.  The original person who ordered the amp would have to receive it and then sell it to another person.  When someone cancels, everyone below them moves up 1 spot.

Update on the 45 BHSEs being assembled right now.
 
After picking up the last of the parts last Tuesday, I have 8 BHSEs completed and ready to begin testing.

Thanks, Justin.
So if I'm going to pick it up myself I assume mine will be wating for me in early June, right?

Erico

Don't worry, if there was an award for "most annoying users" I wouldn't need to be nominated

.
 
About the theard itself, there's nothing much to talk or discuss about an amp that only a couple guys own, and very little people had a chance to listen, so people just keep talking about the tubes they plan to use, knowing pratically nothing about the tubes or the amp itself... this thread should be called "BHSE antecipation thread". 
 
I do plan to travel to the US to pick up my BHSE due to import duties and VAT here in Brazil. As you US citizens may not know, our duties summ almost 100% of the value of the good, so imagine what a 6k amp would cost here. And the flight ticket costs USD 800-1000, that's why. Been waiting for 14 months, and look forward to my BHSE.

Good reason to visit the states. Going to stay in Virginia long or is this just a pickup trip?

 

[ericohgb]

Hi, Maxvla.
How are you?
Yes, I would go to the US only to pick up the BHSE. Had to do the same to avoid paying duties for the Wes.
I do also intend to meet Alex to pick up my LL, if possible.

Erico

You'll need to head to Austin Texas for that, then. You must be passionate about your gear to be flying around picking it up piece by piece.

Or he wants to save $10,000 in VAT/duties.  That sounds like a pretty compelling reason to me.

That's great and all but is it really necessary to make the arrangements for pickup in this thread? Stuff like that is better kept to email/PM's.
