My best guess is the math just isnt ripe ,yet (to those who have looked at the costs and the profits).
My next guess is that we,as a community will probably be best served by a small builder, not a large. There just isnt enough money here,imho, to entice major companies. And, again,imho, that ok....we have already dealt with US Music and it didnt really do much for us, I feel.
So I am up for JF or Salv or anybody to make a prototype and get on with it. Maybe if several people sign off on it we can all have a few built and bring down the cost somewhat...it would be employment to someone for a few weeks, maybe months.
Regarding possible tradmark issues..I have no idea. I suspect whatever design our guys come up with will be different enough to be it's own animal.
Once again, I dream of a 50 watt 3 module combo amp at a reasonable weight. Hold the reverb and give me a use-able loop or two. (pre and post please!). Hold the Tolex, and paint it flat black, for all I care. Tilt the baffle up a tad, if possible...my ears arent down by my calves,right?
And give it one 12 and ext speaker jacks to I can use a 4x12 for big gigs. And did I mention we NEED a speaker emulation out? yeah, an XLR of that would be absolutely nescessary.
I have a whole laundry list of what a pro MTS amp would be like...I wish BRUCE or someone would ask me..Id LOVE to be involved in that.
