NEW Carvin tube head sounds very promissing!

Hey guys, just came across this new amo on their site. I dunno if some of you already know about this or have played it, but it looks INSANE with SOOOO many different possibilities!!! Here is the link to the introductional video about it. I think I am going to have to get this instead of the JSX combo ! If someone knows more about it or has played it let me know how it really is. In the video the guy was doing things with it I could not comprehend (YET).

Looks like a sweet amp at a sweet price. But I'll keep my Road King

My concern with Carvin is authorized repair service. If your not in CA, your screwed. Shipping them back is expensive and time consuming. If a local shop works on it, you forfit your warranty. Some places won't touch them since they can't sell them. I tried three Legacy combos in a row over the course of two months (most of the time exchanging). The reverb on all of them did not work and the build quality varied unit to unit. I asked if a local guy could do the fix and they denied the repair. Their customer service is very good and I recieved a full refund. I just got tired of dealing with it. I'm also very suprised to see that since most of their business is mail order, how poorly the amps were packed and protected. I bought the JSX combo and its excellent, no problems, and more features than the Legacy. MESA's are great too, but cost much more.
