This. It's the title of the thread, after all.I’m just a little confused because they said weeks ago they were now shipping. Unless they meant they were being shipped to them.

New store only has the FC-6... Wonder if product pages are still being brought over? Or is there more FC-6's to go around?
Yep, damn all these pesky frickn’ customers that are excited out of their minds to get the chance to send their hard earned cash for something they’ve been waiting months to purchase from you.......damn them! Those pesky customers must have some nerve!
It’s kind of a bigger issue I guess that people are “excited out of their minds” over a foot controller or basically anything that is a consumer electronics purchase. This isn’t just a FAS issue, the same holds true for nearly anything in consumer purchasing culture be it cabbage patch kids, beanie babies, King of Tone OD pedals, the latest smartphone, or foot controllers.
There is a perverse confusion between needs and wants in modern society and a total “i want it now” mentality in most everything we do.
There are people waiting on life saving cancer drugs with more patience than people waiting for consumer electronics.
The one girl from Willie Wonka was supposed to be this over the top portrayal of a spoiled entitled brat back when the movie came out, but these days darn if her behavior and attitude isn’t identical to tone of people I know....
I get what you're saying, but "I want it now" would have been somebody throwing a fit seven months ago, when there was no FC to go with their new Axe III, and I really don't remember seeing any fits. Here we are months later, they announce that they are shipping, and we really haven't seen anything, so people are getting a little antsy. I don't think what we've seen here in the forum really equates to an "I want it now" fit. "shrug" YMMV
What I don't get is the "If I don't have this foot controller, my AXE3 is useless" mentality. There are numerous foot controllers ranging from the inexpensive Morningstar MC6 to the expensive but feature rich RJM Mastermind GT16/22. I use a RJM LT which is a less expensive controller. I honestly don't even know if I will ever get an FC controller.It’s kind of a bigger issue I guess that people are “excited out of their minds” over a foot controller or basically anything that is a consumer electronics purchase.

I hear ya.....at this point the Morningstar is starting to look pretty darn good! The price is right, too!What I don't get is the "If I don't have this foot controller, my AXE3 is useless" mentality.

I am really digging the RJM LT. Very powerful and only $400. Less if you find a used one on Reverb.I hear ya.....at this point the Morningstar is starting to look pretty darn good! The price is right!

Well, you can actually put an FC-12 in the cart like you're buying it as of now. I didn't try and go through with the purchase, though. They still have the waitlist disclaimer up.
