My /13 head and cabinet grew into a combo and cabinet! Sounds better than hoped on the EL84 side. 6V6 side warm and squishier as expected. Has a faulty switch that we're working on. Aside from that, woohoo!

Would love to hear a demo of this.

We'll get some at the gear fest! Got to fix the faulty switch first...buzzing like crazy.

That seems a little naff for dropping so much coin on an amp - you'd expect it to be perfect I'd have thought?

Totally - work in progress! It may have got a knock in transit so I'm not pointing a sharp finger just yet.

So how did it gain so much weight in transit?
I should look at one of these, EL84 and 6V6; everything a man could ever want.

If you mean, how did it go from a head to a combo? If so, it would seem somewhere between my initial order for a head and the invoicing process the vendor "assumed" I wanted a combo. I was too busy to check the invoice and just paid what I was asked. They're saying I should have checked first, and they're right, I should have. However, I ordered a head so their initial mistake was the cause of the discrepancy. Now I have the combo, and the cabinet, I'm actually quite happy. I means I can run the other cabinet under the BTR23 if required....ya know, for those stadium gigs I do.

It also means I can sell it to Conway in a flash if I tire of it.

And, in all fairness, the head was about the size of a combo anyway.

When can I collect it?

You didn't notice the price difference between a head and a combo? Obviously got too much money!

I dunno, but buying stuff when you're busy, distracted is not a good idea! I know someone who has bought the same model Shimano reel three times...

"busy, distracted" is the new code for "red wine"?
