I'm more into the Randall Satan amp coming out soon since I already have a 5150 combo.

Me too.

I propose in addition to the "like" button, we have a "gong" button... Al a "The Gong Show" for those posts that are just wrong...

Or a flamethrower button.. ;-)

ola is a riff master, any gear that he plays sounds good and does not critique the gear so I am not sure how awesome that one is gonna be compared to a tried and true 5150

The EVHIII isn't made in America? What the ****? That's heresy. No way would I consider one of those knowing that. . .I'm more into the Randall Satan amp coming out soon since I already have a 5150 combo.

Yup, that is what caused the shipping delays- the amps were being placed on a transatlantic freighter from Vietnam to the U.S., and shipping was taking waaaayyy too long, with unexpected delays. So they moved production to Mexico. It's probably cutting into Fender's profit margin, but they were not able to sell enough with the delays in shipping from Vietnam
