Public service announcement - Stompbox London has one in stock, at a remarkable £799. That’s a lot less than the US price tag and certainly less than I paid to import from the US last year!

Timing!... I've just bought another amp. I've had three different ones now whilst waiting to try one of these new, two year old Trace heads . If one appears up here I'll try it but it's taken way too long to land in the UK.

 

Price is tempting though... lol

The price was tempting enough for me to consider a back up 🤣🤣

Well someone’s snapped it up! Anyone on here?

i'm reliably informed TE1200 stock arrived in the UK last week but in limited numbers. Some have already been sent out to retailers to fulfil pre-orders but there are limited units available for anyone keen to order one. GAK are actually advertising them as in stock at the moment.

£1000+ Not sure that it is special enough to warrant that price.

the price will drop when the people with enough cash not to care have bought one

I'm sure street prices will prevail eventually as they arrive in the shops in numbers. Things always cost more when there is limited stock and are newly available in a particular market. In the watts per £ stakes, the TE1200 doesn't do too badly at +1🙂

in the States they seem to be going in the $1200 price point.

That's pretty much the same price at .81GBP to 1USD.

£849 at FX Pedal now… seems a sensible price to me.
