I won't put down my reasons why it appealed to me just yet, but what I will say is I've been looking around for quite some time and I'm really looking forward to giving it a blast Thanks for reading![/quote] A true GAS posting... ask opinions AFTER you've bought it! Been there and done that; probably about to do it again!

Has the back of the neck been sanded/cleaned up? It looks like typical age related 'crud' is tucked in near the tuner plates but the neck n headstock look silky white. Speaking of silky white... how much for the Mrs. Michael? I've worn mine out carrying gear and I could do with a new one!

[quote name='acidbass' post='1001141' date='Oct 26 2010, 02:15 PM']A friend of mine is working on a set of IEM buds at the moment - his company is called Minerva Hearing Protection, you should check them out as their prices are very competitive and they offer the same specs as ACS and Ultimate.[/quote] Only problem is getting the impression/mold done! I got the ACS ones through Specsavers, mainly because they were local and easy to access; if there were alternatives that were as easy to access then I may have used them. I went for the ER15's in the end and they are more than good enough for filtering all but the silliest loud bands... no in fact they will do even the loudest because I believe that at the kind of volumes where these plugs aren't effective then everyone else without earplugs will be in pain and potentially deaf!

Ashington... genuinely the R&R capital of the North East of England! This is the first proper gig for my 'new' band. I say 'new' but we've been rehearsing ages and everyone in the band is FAR from new as we are all seasoned gigging musicians. We are a six piece outfit doing a southern rock type vibe covering artists like; Springsteen, Eagles, Skynyrd, Jackson Brown, Bob Seger, Doobies....etc and even a bit of new country with the the likes of the Warren Brothers, Travis Tritt diversifying into a bit of Frankie Miller (distinctly not American) and Hot House Flowers. If you happen to be at a loose end on Friday 29th and live locally come along and listen/watch a band enjoy themselves. [size=4]Stateside Preachers are endorsed by 'Lumberjacks R us'[/size]

Any EQ other than; bass mid and treble... if an amps designed correctly that's all you need (says than man with 4 bands of semi-parametric EQ on his amp that NEVER get used)!

I realise that the response will be that the amps are esoteric, high end bits of kit that will have point to point wiring done by hand etc but by crickey that's a lot of money to anyone and the cabs in particular; they are essentially bog standard cabs... phew!

You've written yourself a very nice review! I doubt you'll get many folks on this forum sharing their views on this equipment as most of us will never have heard of it let alone seen or played through it. What sort of cost (£sterling) are we talking about to acquire a rig like yours; it 'looks' very appealing.

That's the first beer that made me sit up and say woah![/quote] McEwans... good old Geordie ale but you are going back some ways! Brown Ale (Bottles of Dog) is a (ahem) step up from McEwans; though I still rate a 'good' pint of McEwans Scotch as one of the finest pints of beer.

I did a deal with a Canadian guy and from the outset I stated what I wanted in £sterling. When he made the transfer he had based it upon an 'on-line' rate; unfortunately the reality was VERY different and we were over £100 out. Due to the fact that I'd always stated that it had to be in UK currency we sorted it but I did offer him a full refund if he didn't want to proceed due to the difference for him. I have to agree that in your instance, offering to split the difference is preferable to souring an £850 deal.

[quote name='Sheldon Dingwall' post='995186' date='Oct 20 2010, 06:26 PM']Would you settle for a beer instead? I've never been to the UK but I'm due for a visit.[/quote] Beautiful countryside in the Northumberland/Scottish Borders; as for the beer... we have Broon Ale!

[quote name='dave_bass5' post='995110' date='Oct 20 2010, 05:19 PM']Oh, and for the record, it weighs exactly 8.5lbs so its pretty light.[/quote] is that 8 point 5lb (ie 8lb 8oz) or 8lb 5oz? How come whenever I ask about the weight of these people all seem to say less than 8 1/2lb yet everyone that I've weighed has been between 9-10lb... and yes I've had my scales checked!
