Twatsticks.

I was planning on getting one once the money from the Jazzer makes it's way into my account.

There's some on ebay but I was kinda hoping for a new one from a proper shop for the warranty and that.

I wonder if my local shop still has one?

It's 300 quid, but free shippin'. Might be worth phoning em, they're good people.

GAK are very kind and loving. I believe one of my local music shops has at least one in, they're an Orange dealer, but knowing them they're not selling it for £300.

GAK don't have any until 1st week of May.

Go to Soundcontrol. I know for a fact there was one in Glasgow at the weekend. They'll get it sent down for you next business day.

Yeah, they've got a few. I don't like trying stuff out too much because I always feel like I've dicked them about once I've finished and walk out.

I'm pretty sure I saw one in Music Ground in Manchester, a few weeks ago, though.

I found one from one of my many emails on imuso.co.uk. They offer:

- free shipping
- shipping to my work address
and next day shipping so it's gone on the credit card and will be here tomorrow.

Cheers for the help guys, soundcontrol tried to match the free shipping but i hate those cunts.

Surely you are meant to have more guitars that amps? :D

I sold to buy remember.

Goodbye Jazzmaster - hello Tiny Terror. It's for practise at home and recording, aswell as a backup to take to gigs, I'll get rid of the Power Block or give it to Andy for a backup at the Meetup or something.

Yeah I have it backwards but the Telecaster is the guitar that makes sense to me and these things just sound great and are too cool.

And it sounds great. Really beautiful sounding amp clean, crunchy or all out, only played the 7 watt setting through my 1926 2x12" but it's lush. Am bringing my old lil 1x10" SS Marshall Lead12 combo up to the house to use as a speaker cab for it when I'm upstairs here in the spare room. Gonna take it to rehearsal next week for a crank too ;)

Congratulation's man, looks great. Also, that bag is the cutest thing I've seen in ages.

It's a lovely little thing isn't it? And a very welcome addition, it's nicely reinforced and padded and I reckon the bag and the amp itself could both survive a big brother cab or head rolling over onto them in a car or whatever. Really well built stuff.

Mine is one of the original 1000 Korean made units, apparently then manufacturing switches to China for mass production - gear snobs are already getting snooty about a perceived drop in quality that hasn't even happened yet and are saying the Korean made ones will cost more resale. :roll:

I'm glad I love amps for the right reasons.

Thank you! it is a purty thing, I brought it upstairs to sit by me on the filing cabinet while I post and watch the Liverpool game online (I know that's pathetic but I don't care)

Turn that file cabinet into a cab! Besides that it looks awesome. Ive heard good things and been wanting one forever.
