I can't get it to let me buy it online

That's the deal I got, but I guess I just got lucky over the phone...

Ehhhhh.
Why does Guitar Center have to suck so much?
Like others, I got the "cannot be sourced" bullshit. Time to see who price matches.

There are some GC stores that are supposed to have them in stock. If you aren't near by, you may be able to get someone at a store to ship one to you. (Weekday mornings are probably the best time to try.) If my current attempt doesn't fly, that's my next move.

Got my shipping notice, so I'll spill. M123 did the price match with the coupon code. Normally they won't match coupons, but they probably agreed to do so because they thought they were matching the normal $199 online price at their fellow Bain Capital subsidiary -- higher than a lot of online prices. They kept the coupon discount on when they actually matched.
Music123 is famously inconsistent on doing the same match for different customers. If an online match won't fly, you can try your luck on the phone.

Re: $99 Akai Headrush
Came in today. Didn't know it was so big -- it's about the size of my Magic Stomp. We're going to need a bigger board.
The looper tap dance is a little counter-intuitive, but I'll get used to it. The tape sim mode is sweet, capturing a lot of the vibe of my RE-201.

Re: $99 Akai Headrush
I've been wondering about these guys for a while now. I use a DL4 for looping, but that is all i use it for, i don;t use it for the delays, so it is a huge footprint for just a looper. I've seen guys use this ans it sounds great, but i have had other friends who say the head rush is a pain in the ass. the price has me really curious. anyone have a feeling on this thing vs the dl4? would it be a good exchange on the board?

No DL-4 experience. So far the looper is a bit of a PITA, but it's my first looper.
