Just bought a pedal from the excellent Ben, who's fast(est) delivery and packing skills are off the scale Thanks very much. He's a pleasure to deal with

I also "created" my own "Live" with the Archive "Supper's Ready"

" Genesis Live" cuts the mustard for me. Apparently meant to be a double album, but dropped "Supper's Ready" to keep the price down (allegedly) Still have the CD version. Saw them at the Glasgow Apollo on the SEBTP tour. Extra long show, as rescheduled due to stage being live on the original date, so Ron Geeshin was dropped as support

So far it's OK to put up with, though I may feel differently after a while. Time will tell. Still can't believe how good the sound is from something as small as that. Though I did have a baby EA iAMP350 combo that had really good sound. That was about the same size, but much, much, heavier.

They've changed it! - the VLE is now " Old School" is it? and the VPF is gone in favour of a preshape. Balanced input has also gone but footswitch has appeared. and a mute switch at long last. Did they do anything about the hissy horn? It's hornless, as it's the tweeter version (maybe Dairy version ) Can't say I've noticed it, but I haven't ran it at any great volume so far. Did the input jack socket always light up ? Yeah, the date thing is a bit strange. I didn't notice if it was delivered in a De Lorean though Wouldn't mind finding out though...

Arrived today in very good time from Promenade Music. It's everything I hoped it would be, and sounds amazing It's very versatile, but I'm probably preaching to the choir here. It's the version 4, Indonesian model. Given my health situation (Fibromyalgia and CFS) it's a wee bit hefty for me to lift (I know, totally weak, but even my bass is heavy enough to hurt at the moment), but weighs a lot less than my previous amps and cabs, but still sounds like a fair sized rig. It's sound and "heft" is easily comparable with my last Ashdown EVOII and mini cab. I love everything about it except for the awkward location of the DI out etc (underneath). For some reason I'd got it into my head it would be at the back of the cab However, if I'm ever in a position to gig again, a spare cab would solve that. I'll have to get some sort of cover for it, as our cats are eyeing the carpet covering already. Do the older versions of the Markbass covers fit this version too ?

I've been following this nervously, having ordered a MARKBASS MINI CMD121P IV from Promenade Music. haven't received it yet. Wondering now if I should cancel ?

I'd love a Portamento. I get a bit lost on my SRH500, as the fret lines are black. It sounds great, though it would be good to have the option of the magnetic pickups too

Look good. It's a pity only the second two are available for Kindle. I have all the Deke Leonard stuff, which is hilarious

I loved the sound he had on "Road Noise", the live Judie Tzuke album. ISTR it was his birthday, and he played his derrière off. I thought that was either an 80s Aria, but probably was his Alembic as he had one early doors.

In my defence, I'd sold my TE combo earlier in the week, so had no choice (and no other rig !)
