Ok, so I got a call from the amp shop today and my Dual Rec's FX Loop mod from Parallel to Series is completed...I am going to pick it up tomorrow and will have a FULL Review on this mod, including showing the schematics that were used, and how the mod changed my troubles with things in the loop...
...until then, i have a pretty big rant:
I'm not sure how many of you are in the South Florida Area, but theres an Amp Shop in West Palm (called the Amp Shop). Anyways I got my mod done there, i'm not sure how much it came to total yet (they estimated 2hrs, $140) which seems a bit much...we'll see tomorrow.
Anyways, they told me to come back in today to bring my footswitch in so they could fully test the amp to make sure everything had gone well. As I was walking in i heard the owner and the amp tech chatting about ME, while finishing up my amp on the bench...i managed to hear things like:
"...what a stupid guy, this mod is so unnecessary..."
"...these schematics he brought in are useless..." (I got the schems from Tempest, who got em from Boogie)
and the insults just continued until the owner realized i was there with my footswitch.
The amp tech started telling me to my face how i need to stop reading fanboy forums, and how he knows this mod will not solve my issue, and he will gladly redo it back to parallel for $30 once i take it home and hate it.
Now frankly i'm pretty pissed about the service, especially being treated that way after trying to do business with a local shop, and being nothing but kind to them. Should i bring this up when i talk to the owner tomorrow?
...Anyways, I will have a full review added to this post tomorrow. I just felt like ranting about the service, any input as to what I should do is appreciated.
