i remember the post/pm of panic mike sent me about that incident. only a couple things of value came of that experience... (1) through researching how to fix, i learned where to modify post counts (hence my million+) and (2) so many lulz.

oh and, nice try, n00b. we know you fell off the turnip truck like yesterday.

I identify as Devonian, and that's actually quite offensive.

they would have matched better but the speakers aren't as nice in this one, and its 10 dollars more new.
I've seen those little Acoustics, they look like they'd be 2x10", but it's really a 1x10" with some intricate construction, folded horn or something. (although I'm not sure what you were looking at, your link is giving me something else)

Ampeg make a couple of little 2x10" cabs though.




I couldn't even get a $99 Guitar Fetish stand/case for what you paid for that 2x12", Guitar Fetish change something around $200 for the shipping. I was also looking at an Agile $450 guitar at Rondo, $500 shipping. I could get a cheaper Gibson for that much.

How do they ship a 2x12 cab across the ocean for $33? I ordered smaller things from Thomann and I payed more for the delivery. They probably do some serious discounts when they ship to the Center of the Universe. Did it come to you via USPS, Rob?

And congrats of course. Do an riff
