Nord Rack 2x, a good purchase now?

Yesterday I ordered a Nord Rack 2X at a local dealer here in Canada. None of their 27 stores across Canada had one in stock. Is this an ominous sign?
Are they no longer in production? What to do?

I received a prompt reply from Jonas at Nord:

'The nord lead 3 is discontinued and will be replaced by the nord wave later this year. The nord lead 2X is still in production, and hopefully will be for a long time to come!'

I will have to see how well the supply lines from Armadillo (in the US) to the Canadian rep. to my dealer works!?!

thanx...

I bought mine second hand from eBay (less than 600€), and I don't regret it a bit. It seems to be very well bu¡lt and sounds much better than I expected, it's going to stay at home for a long time Very Happy

I'ts a classic, its sound is authentic and although the 3 led screen is far from ideal the interface is just a joy to use. My advice, get it!

I have re-discovered my Micro Modular... so until the Rack 2x arrives I will spend my time loading Nord Lead sounding patches in it! Besides, spring has arrived here in Canada and sitting outside with a beer is a good way to wait.

thanx
