To import, it'll still cost you more from thomann, $270 landed

However $389.99 from livesound is just plain fucking printing money.
So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

I thought I'd give my bassman idea a nudge and looked at getting 4x 10" Eminence speakers from Parts Express, priced at USD $104 per. Add in freight at about $370 (US) and exchange rate, total of $1200 kiwi or so.

When I look at an already built s/h amp ( and old broken in Jensens) suddenly the deal on one seems good.
