I really want an El Capstipanan, but I've already got four delays. And I wanna get a HOG first.
Same bro. Actually I want both at the same time.
I might just have a PT JR consisting of a HOG > Fuzz God > El Cap > BSR
If i manage to sell off a lot of stuff

So I asked the guys. Turns out if I had just watched the video further...

I was saving up for an Empress Superdelay, but I think I might have to get one of these instead. My birthday is coming up soon and my girlfriend's been hinting at buying me a pedal, but I imagine the next batch of these is gonna sell out fast and I doubt she'll be willing to spend Tuesday on the Strymon site waiting for them to go on sale. Oh well, there's a store near me with a Whetsone in stock, I'd be pretty happy with that too.

Hopefully only two more sleepless nights until I can rest assured that my order has been placed.

Anywho... the word on the street is that the next batch will be available on Tuesday!
If this proves true then you all can thank me by waiting to order until I put my order in.

Hey dude, what word on what street? I emailed Strymon, and they said they'd email when more are available. I REALLY am planning on getting one. I hope I don't miss out...
