Hadn't really thought about it until this appeared in the MP sale, but it's the high-gain model. Still tempted for the MV50 Clean at full price which is still only $350, would just need to sort out a cab.

Would be fun to try a super-budget wet/dry setup with the katana :think:
I'm seriously considering a pair of these for a w/d/w set up. They normally retail for $149. Bargain!!

Pretty sure that was "Shimmer" on the forum.

Yeah, I like those. The only thing I dislike is the stupid bulky inline power supply.

You moving it on? I've got a bit of an itch to get back into a stereo rig. What do you pair it with in your stereo rig?

Yeah gonna let it go to fund a California Tweed. I have used various things in stereo with it, including a Marshall DSL, a Bassman clone, an AC-30ish combo and a Rectoverb. I think the Vox sound pairs really well with it, especially for cleans.

Took the kids to McDonald's. Fuck me... The queue.

Did two order collections from Resene and Mitre10. Poor staff were run-ragged at M10. They'd had over 400 orders by 10am. They made a mistake with my order but I didn't have the heart to tell them. I'll just email a complaint to the boss. ;-)

Currently gassing for a new windows interface. Lots of options but I'm stuck on getting another UAD as I've sunk a decent amount of coin into plugins already. And of course if one pops up second hand it's bloody thunderbolt/osx ...
