Re: What are you gassing for?
I think it's really worth checking out the Vox AC10, lightweight, great tone and not silly money.jeremyb wrote:Kinda deliberating at the moment, used to have an AC15, but thinking now of a 4-5W one with a 8" - 12" speaker, spoilt for choice!Mattallica wrote:Fair 'nough, what size combo?I had been keen on them in the past, have played thru one at a jam, pretty cool amps, but after a combo again this time round

Mmm it's of interest for sure, but I kinda wonder if the AC4C1-12 might be a better option?, it's just for bedroom use reallyPolar Bear wrote:I think it's really worth checking out the Vox AC10, lightweight, great tone and not silly money.jeremyb wrote:Kinda deliberating at the moment, used to have an AC15, but thinking now of a 4-5W one with a 8" - 12" speaker, spoilt for choice!Mattallica wrote:

Re: What are you gassing for?
I can vouch for the AC4-12, tasty bit of kit! I did wonder how it compared to the 10" version though. All in all it's a really it was a really nice, and surprisingly loud, guitar+cable+amp setup at home. You should give one a whirl JB.

Re: What are you gassing for?
I'd strongly recommend the AC10 over the 4. There is a boxiness to the AC4 that never goes away, even with the larger cab of the 4. The 10 is bigger sounding, without necessarily being louder.jeremyb wrote:

Re: What are you gassing for?
Once I get some money back in the bank account I'm gonna need a cab of some sort, probably a 2x12. Not much to get excited about I know, but needs before wants and all that blah.

Re: What are you gassing for?
I like look of both those pedals. Kat King can do Tone bender but a lot more to boot. Every demo of Sabbra Cadabra has sounded awesome. Belle Epoch too.Mattallica wrote:I'm keen on a Kat King too.

I was about to buy a whole bunch of pedal and had my cart ready to go at pro Guitar Shop when I discovered both my interface and monitors both unexpectedly need replacing. Bummed out. Need to shift this Eleven Rack as it did not work out as an interface. jst a matter of time I guess and I can go pedal shopping, unless my computer shits itself too

Bummer indeed, at least now you'll have time to find the best prices for the pedals. Unless of course the computer does the shitting too. Then nothing!I like look of both those pedals.

I wouldn't exactly call it GAS, but I do need to pick up an L3T and a bag for the Helix at some stage.
