GILLY

Just bought a cab from Ian. Although it was secondhand it could easily have just arrived (brand new) from a retailer because it was basically in new condition and, what's more, it was in the original manufacturer's box too. Keeping the original packaging is good common sense I reckon. I had great comms from Ian from start to finish and would recommend him without reservation.

Recently met Dave at a halfway point and took cab off his hands. Had a 10 minute chinwag and was on my way. Great guy to deal with, absolutely true to his word and I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone wishing to buy or sell to him.

I took delivery of my Monza a couple of weeks ago. It came straight out with me for a band rehearsal and then I did not get a chance to play through it properly again until earlier this evening. Here are my thoughts/opinions: The band comprises drums, guitar, bass, keys and two vocalists; we rehearse in a large meeting room that has pretty good acoustics due to a suspended ceiling. I would say we play at 4/5ths of a gig level. The Monza was quite astonishing. The cab it replaces is a Markbass 2x10 which I love for its warmth and character, the Monza is everything others have said - clean, clear, detailed but definitely not coloured. Stevie advised me to 'give it some wellie' so I did just that and could not believe how much air the thing was moving and how well I could hear myself as I moved around the room. This echoes what others have found with their Monzas. I had another play at home tonight at reasonable volume and I have to say that this cab is very classy. Although 'clean' sounding, it is by no means sterile nor does it ever get stressed as you push it. You can certainly tell that the components are of a very high standard. I would go as far as to say that they are good value for money!
