Production and delivery times
We're going to try to keep this up to date, so check back if you've placed an order and it's running late!
Please note - the lead times are estimates based on our order queue, order rate, supply chain, and staffing.

Updated 22nd Mar 2024 - we're pleased to say that we're working fast and getting through the queue remarkably quickly! Like all factories (of any size) we have finite production capacity in each area, which is why, for example, you'll have to wait longer for a 12XN cab than an AVD guitar cab.
We've had a flurry of orders for bigger 10CR cabs and have consequently run out of 10CR drivers more quickly than expected. We're hoping to receive a large batch of these in early April to fulfil any outstanding orders. We are well stocked with 10CRA and 12XN bass drivers. We're also waiting for the unique drivers for our Reality 112FR cabs.
New orders:
Stock Reformers - black or green tolex with black or silver grills, with any choice of driver (subject to supply) are now available with 1-2 week lead time. (Quicker if we have the driver you want in stock!)
Estimated 4-6 week lead time on all other AVD guitar cabs.
Estimated 6-8 week lead time on 10CR / 10CRA bass cabs.
Estimated 6-8 week lead time on 12XN bass cabs.
If you need your cab urgently for a gig/tour/session then let us know and we'll see if we can juggle things around and get it to you in time - can't promise anything though!
By quoting a fairly wide window it gives us the flexibility to work most efficiently in terms of production batches and also lets us help out customers who need their cab urgently. Please do not email us asking for a more precise lead time because it's simply not that easy to work out - and not likely to be all that accurate. But if you would like your cab for a certain date then we can check if that's likely to be possible.
Existing/outstanding orders - please click here for our new Current Production Status page.
If you've given us a specific date you need your cab by, please feel free to check in and see how we're going - we don't usually forget but there's a lot to keep track of at the moment. Otherwise, if you can hold on and wait for your order patiently then we'd really appreciate that!
