This is the frustrating thing I have learned about the ARC co, in my short time here. I got a different story when I called them on two occasion's. they took 4-5 days to call back and then i was told ,while the girl laughed,, that i was lucky it didn't take 10 days like many she was calling that day. between the e-mail ph, and site, i could get a 4+ in 3wk's/ "right now" or wait till oct for a revision. the premi AAA and AA could not be ordered, then 5 wk's then,, "got one here if you want it?". sorta strange don't you think?
Maybe the best light's in the world, but until i hear that company is running semi normal I will be looking at micra's and Q-III's SF etc. I know ARC have had a lot of problem's
with production, parts, lawsuit's, but i have delt with similar small co's in the music biz that have too, and I didn't get the 2 or 3 different "story's" senario, and when I do, i simply go elsewhere.
I don't like to rant, but truly if this was nuwai or other far east co, i feel you would hear more grumbling, IMHO.
I see it as thus: the quality and prestige have little to do with the buisiness. I manufacter a guitar effect pedal, and have been through this stuff, but ph message's get answered, and what I e-mail is not different then what's on my web page/phone contact's. VDG
