In order to be a Flint Killer, it doesn't have to sound better, it just has to be half the price.RectifiedAmps wrote: ↑Wed Jun 23, 2021 10:51 am I have a Celestion G10 Greenback and a Keeley Hydra on the way:

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.

If I could find something 90% as good as the Flint for half the price, I'd take it in a heartbeat.Slowy wrote: ↑Wed Jun 23, 2021 11:29 amIn order to be a Flint Killer, it doesn't have to sound better, it just has to be half the price.RectifiedAmps wrote: ↑Wed Jun 23, 2021 10:51 am I have a Celestion G10 Greenback and a Keeley Hydra on the way:

until you have to plug cables into the sides...
looks pretty cool though, slightly cheaper than a Flint and it has presets.
Tube amp and guitar tones straight from 1958… amazing how believable the sounds were back then, even without the modellers...

You might have to fire sale it, the value will be through the floor. I can do you a favour and take it for $50.

I have something that has its last update as departing Tokyo on 2nd June and has yet to turn up. I’m guessing this is how it be now?

Does your tracking info look anything like this? If it does, then yes. APC are especially rubbish, but it seems most of the US freight companies are subcontracting out through them for NZ deliveries.

According to an interview on the radio last week, US shipping logistics is a shambles.
