Little Phatty regular edition

It does sound strange. However, all we know is that thew stage version will not have the wooden side panels, right?
But what does it matter... I love my Tribute Edition and it's looks alone makes it already a classic.

even if that was the case though, how would moog be releasing the stage edition already if they can't even keep up with the demand for tributes?

hmm....

The tributes are limited edition and I believe are already all spoken for...so this makes sense. I think they made a mistake...and released the news early...but not a mistake regarding the fact that the Standard edition is coming very, very soon.

I confirmed it with them that it is the standard...not the tribute.
wow, thats pretty odd when you consider that moog has released zero images or press on it, other than the relative price tag. i wonder if all the tributes have been spoken for based on the orders moog has recieved?

hmm....

I'm sure that goldphinga is right - the dealer has made a mistake. To confirm it yourself, try contacting the dealer next week and see if they received any Stage Editions from Moog. I'd bet they will tell you that the shipment has been delayed, try us again in a couple of weeks, etc.

Until Moog makes an official announcement, I wouldn't trust any claims from music dealers regarding the Stage Edition. Either save your money and wait, or shop around and get a Tribute Edition now.

The only mistake they made was announcing it before Moog did... just like Novamusik did with the Akai MPC500 a week or two ago.

Rogue Music is usually pretty reliable...remember when people thought the Solar Edition Voyager wasn't legit just because Moog didn't announce it officially on their site..If Rogue is selling these for under 1k it sounds like a great deal for those who waited and didn't have the extra $400 to spend for wood end cheeks, etc...plus most of the bugs have been worked out of them by now!

Wow, my small post turned into a quite long discussion!

I actually had ordered one, but told the local music last week to forget the order - because I just had to move to a different town/school...which gave me lots of unexpected expenses. Fineally the moog-fanatic in me realized the error of my decision..
stupid, stupid, stupid....

Well see how this turns out.
I've been listening to a lot of samples of the LP, and they really sound amazing, I need a Little Phatty tribute edition badly!!!

Life always gets in the way of these pleasurable pursuits! There will be other opportunities to pick up an LP.

Although only 1200 Tribute Edition LP's are being made, the Stage Edition will follow eventually. Unless you really want a 'collectable' Tribute Edition, the Stage Edition should offer the same sound and capabilities (the same way a Voyager Performer Edition offers the same sounds and capabilities as the Signature Edition). The Stage should also be less expensive than the Tribute, which will hopefully make make it easier for you to obtain.

Rogue changed their news today:

This can't be true.

I think they mean that all have been sold to stores...but you can still find them at stores.
