  1. The J pickup on yours is in the 60's position - i.e. further from the bridge. It'll honk less than the 70s position, but in theory it'll be louder as there's more string movement where it is - so it should balance better with the louder P pickup.
  2. Lezsek has sent me the proper dimensions - lord knows where I got the other ones from. Apologies for the confusion...
  3. There's too much of a grey area around insurance for my liking.
  4. looks like a nice head. Interesting to see the marketing blurb say "Trusting our ears and moving away from Class D technology altogether, the 4 Stroke is 100% analogue throughout."
  5. Presumably it’s similar to the R400, so when it’s ‘flat’, it has virtually zero baked-in EQ. You can scoop the mids by bumping the bass / treble (or use contour knob), or increase them by reducing the bass and treble. That said - I’ve never wanted/needed to increase the mids on the R400 - from the start, they shine like no other amp I’ve owned.
  6. Yay.. there's a demo model coming across to the UK. I think it's coming to me first :-)
  7. I'm trying to convince myself I don't need one...!
  8. Some more gen: Power: 120W - 4x6L6 Preamp: 3x12AX7 460mm x 185mm x 340 mm 16kg
  9. Out of interest, I've just asked him **the** question... €950 at the current exchange rate.
  10. Hey gang As everyone knows, I'm a self-confessed a Handbox Audio fanboi. Leszek's been working on a new compact 120w tube head - the WB-100 - and he's just posted pics of one on Facebook. Yum. If I get any more details, I'll post them here. There's a Facebook post here, too.
  11. 'twas ever thus, along with the people who have all the ideas and no gear.
  12. I don't - I've always just dealt direct with Tommy...
  13. FWIW, Handbox have been around for years, just not in the UK. But I agree they could do with upping their English content, and how a UK warranty would work if it’s needed.
  14. Thank you - you're very kind :-) Yeah, it's definitely a taste thing - I like nice tight low-mids, but the cab could easily soak up more lows if needed.
  15. Give TKS cabs a look, too. I used them with my Walkabout, and IMO they're a perfect match. Lightweight, but old-school ceramic drivers from Eminence.
  16. Thank goodness you're here to save us, @prowla! Actually, while you're on, I've just snapped up The Mona Lisa for a great price. I'm SO chuffed.
