Is that the picovalve? Not sure how good those ones are, or how loud. Only 5 watt.

For sure, I'm expecting it to be very different, but Vox's are a flavour I've not tried before (though I've always liked them when I've heard them).

Would that be the Laney LC50 that's on TM?

Try out a katana though, I was surprised....
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Cheers guys.

And yes, I do! Still have a little pedalboard on a PT nano sitting around gathering dust. A Timmy, a Euphoria, a Diamond Memory Lane Jr and a Wet are all waiting to be played.
Dibs on the Wet if you ever decide to move it on. It can come back to Daddy :D
Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

Welcome back. The Marshall is still going strong. I've just picked up an 80's Marshall jcm800 head, so will put it in there to save a bit of space.

Glad to hear that. It's a great amp. I reckon I'll always be stoked to have had a JCM 800, as impractical as it was for my situation.

If you do want the Laney let me know, I can probably do you a really good deal.
Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

Cheers man, but I'm looking for something a bit more portable... my last amp was a 2x12 combo. :-)

Considering the price of the other stuff he's selling, I'd guess this one is overpriced too.
Amps:
Soldano SLO100 x2 | Wizard MC1 & MC2 | Diezel Herbert
Fryette Pittbull CL | Marshall 2203KK | Krank Rev 50 | Mesa Mark 2A

Rack stuff:
VHT/Fryette GP3, GP/DI & 2/90/2 | Peters FSM/Chimera
Verellen Meatsmoke | Synergy SYN1 | Mesa Studio
