Discontinued Glass Symphony XLR

JOJO got me my replacement heater to me a few weeks ago and so happy to have my GS back in service. I have to say the free flow air flow of the GS and the power to control browning with breath intensity is awesome. Suck hard and fast and watch your flower turn crispy brown. Suck slow and soft then get terpy zippy for 2 or 3 draws before the browning taste comes on.

I use a Roor vaportech which is like 14” tall. Works great with the GS as it has a 6” base. Nice and stable. Also get the GS stand that JOJO sells. I have tried mason jar, Herborizer stand with a GS bowl, 3” base bubbler with GS bowl. The GS stand blows all of them out of the water.

Bowls. I like them all but mainly use the Roor vaportech bowl. I feel it has max airflow but allows you to watch your flower turn brown.

It’s funny how I can have the GS on a list for over a year just waiting for my health, energy and circumstances to align, and be able to patiently wait, read and wait some more. No problem! But the minute that I’m finally sorted and ready to pull the trigger, I’m transformed into an overly-excited, antsy little kid! I can’t wait for the next round to land and bring some new blood into this thread and more chatter to keep me occupied until @jojo monkey gets to me. I’m checking the thread everyday and where I was content to lurk before, now I’m being the annoying guy with nothing to contribute really other than a window into my vape neurosis... :disgust:

I’m gonna need a weekly GS video from current owners. Don’t care if it’s the same member every week or y’all decide to divide responsibilities, just post something so that I can live vicariously through you guys! C’mon! :lol:

I think videos won't cut to the chase... the GS isn't just a Plug-In device, it has its own category, sort of :brow:

New technique got me more elevated than my daily routine. I use my old US Tubes beaker bong and throw it in the freezer for 20-30 mins. Drop a few ice cubes in the tube and sit the GS on the set up. The Cool vapor allows for big rips with the GS. Do two maybe three rips depending on the material.

So I’m just going to say it:
This is the quietest dang thread, given that the GS-XLR is widely acknowledged among those with heavyweight vape experience as a tippity-top-tier vaporiser. I guess once you’ve said that, there’s nothing left to say?

Maybe if this thread finally got moved from the “Upcoming & Unreleased” section? IDK...

I think the problem here is that it's never really been widely released. Very few people have it, compared to the larger vape community. If folks can't buy it, they'll look for something else.

I think it's fair to keep this where it is, considering involvement level. I believe the creator has a full time job on top of making all these, so it's definitely fair that there is a wait. It's been a while though, and I only get so many vape dollars per quarter...

A proper care with the GS means that every time you finish a bowl, you have to lift the GS into his stand. Plus, when you leave the room, it is probably recommended to turn the GS off.

you're so high, and yet you have to take care of it.

BUT it's probably the most efficient vape on this planet - with an amount of 0.1g at 800F it feels much higher than combusting 0.2g bowl, 1 hit extraction.

So is this vape not being made anymore? I pm'ed him months ago with no response. I am thinking of making my own at this point. Does anyone know where to find the diy that started the GS?

I am sorry that you cannot reach the Glass Symphony guy! I have never had an issue getting in contact with him, so will send an email now and see if I get a reply.
Will let him know that there is a need for his presence.

So, have any of those who were at the top of the list received a GS-XLR or communication recently? I’m just curious since I thought a batch was going out a couple weeks ago. Guess I was wrong. Again. :D

@MothChewMoth Nope I haven’t recently because don’t wanna seem pushy or bug him too much, I mean I’ve communicated exactly what I want and thought he was either getting or had the parts (mainly 220v heater) for my package.

While I’m committed mentally to getting a GS, I do have other toys fortunately and I’m not exactly dying without one, like all this stuff it’s gravy rather than necessity for me. So that’s why I don’t wanna ride jojo needlessly if his life is super busy rn when I’m fairly certain that I can survive without one until the planets align...besides I’ve been spending too much on other shit lately! :lol:

Just had a thought- GS HEADRUSHES! In my 24 hour trial, I was getting quite intense sudden and peculiar head rushes imediately after most hits which I've not had with other vapes before.

So I imagine you would definitely want to make sure you are seated firmly haha! Be careful bro, and maybe seek your Doctor's recommemdation first, possibly even request a "fit" note? i.e. "Dear Jojo Monkey, I, Dr <...>, Hereby declare that Mr pxl_jockey is officialy fit to own and extract with the Glass Symphony vaporizer- provided that he is firmly seated first of course... " ;)

I’m trying, mate! It’s cool that this thread’s been moved for more visibility and awareness, the GS obviously deserves it. It’s just crazy to me that a plug-in that’s this good has only 39 pages in almost two and a half years(!), so hopefully now maybe more folks will look into the GS and what it can do! Tbh though, if it’s not easily/readily available for purchase, lots of potential customers will lose interest and it won’t matter how great its performance and experience is. After all people, we’re talking about stoners here, they’ll forget about it and wind up spending the money on something else shiny and new. :lol: Or just blow it all on material! :rofl:

Imho, this bad-ass vape needs an instagram account/shopify website or perhaps online resellers, although the latter option is the least desirable to me. I’m gonna pay more and Brendan would profit less, I always like dealing directly with the inventor/maker when possible, especially in this industry. Way back in ‘17 (:haw:) at this thread’s beginning, he was developing a website and although there is a demo store even now, it’s not functional. I don’t want this to come across as criticism because I completely understand how life gets in the way and there’s only so much time in the day so we have to make priorities.

I requested to be invoiced about a month ago. I was replied to in a couple days and told he was waiting for parts to come in and it would be a week until I could purchase and since then no response.

edit: to add i am in the USA, i see others were told the part wait was due to them needing a 220v heater, not me.

Did you include the one I sold on to a friend of @anasrzi in January 2018?

Will that be 3 confirmed?

It may be that Jojo has been diverted elsewhere in his busy, multiple front life making the GS production unsustainable.

But it could be possible for somebody to pick up up the project, follow his blueprints and start from scratch?

I mean was this idea and concept not sort of tied up in this project and Jojo's conception from the off?

I think that's his Vision for this was partly for people to be able to make their own if they wished, freely. From the beginning he shared his passion about how he wants is to be accessible to everybody for low costs with sustainable materials to be sourced over time.

In that, he may not object to another party using his design to re-create the vape for the demanding public.
Of course I may be totally mistaken on that and it might not sit well with him.

@Cl4ud3 actually I think there may actually be a third glass symphony in this country- I think vapefiend might have one I'm sure I remember hearing somebody say they had one on premises for testing in late 2017.

Obviously not something they would be talking about but I bet if it had been in high production like the Flowerpot, they would have stocked it ages ago.

@VapeFiend.com easy George. :tup: Is it true, did I hear and remember right? Do you still have a Glass Symphony model on premises? If so what did you all think of it in relation to some of the other big hitters?

@lazylathe Did you get a response on your second attempt at contact with our dear jojo? I hope everything's okay too since the last time Brendan emailed, it seemed like everything was on track. Like others, I'm cool with whatever the timeframe is since he's got more serious RL commitments than making me a vape I don't really need :D but I want it...:cry: and I really hope whatever caused the disappearance was a positive and happy occurrence. I'm more concerned about him than worried about a vape at this point.

I wouldn't worry too much, not to be critical in anyway but this is actually typical behaviour for Jojo since beginning this thread he has had a tendency to wander off on life's many Adventures not to be seen or heard of for several months on occasion before returning full of life and vigor again.

He clearly just goes with the flow of life in whatever Direction it steers him at times and it would appear fully devotes himself to that particular Pursuit that's just the impression I have gathered.

So I would would assume he is ok still and place my concerns in the direction of those mounting wannabe GS owners out there.
