Cheese board with fitted cheese slicer! Awesome!

[quote name='RhysP' timestamp='1427383785' post='2729724'] I'm looking forward to the day when it's just you & me... [/quote] Oh my God, no!! Barry Island all over again!!

[quote name='onehappybunny' timestamp='1427389825' post='2729828'] [font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][color=#282828]...but there is only one way to find out! [/color][/font] [/quote] Don't want to be a negative Norman or anything, but I had my Fusion on the go at home this afternoon - the fan [i]is [/i]audible (especially if you're listening out for it) so if you're playing quietly on your own you'd definitely hear it. It kicks in as the amp heats up (obviously) and slows down to a stop when cool again, and so on. Just trying to save you time bud - and I don't need the competition either, so trying to keep the best amps for myself...

[quote name='Veils' timestamp='1427395067' post='2729936'] Forgot to add that I've asked for bound neck and block inlays too [/quote] Lush. So 1966-ish, then?

[quote name='Veils' timestamp='1427394408' post='2729924'] I've taken the plunge!!! 60's style jazz, heavy relic, colour will be the same shade of green that's on the Mexican flag (I've found a cool relic'd Mex flag pickguard to go with it), matching headstock. Cannot wait!!!! [/quote] Look forward to that! If you've specified a heavy relic then it will certainly be a heavy relic!

[quote name='Tweedledum' timestamp='1427288438' post='2728288'] Is that James Bond's Aston Martin? [/quote] The Corgi version. Bulletproof screen, radiator guns and the famous ejector seat. Passenger accessory usually lost within five minutes.

[quote name='badboy1984' timestamp='1427382937' post='2729707'] I think is cool to own a lot but most of the time they will just gather dust. [/quote] I can quite well gather dust just sitting here without the aid of 99+ guitars and save myself a fortune!

[quote name='RhysP' timestamp='1427381530' post='2729678'] That's about the correct number of regular contributors isn't it? [/quote] I actually thought it was less than that. Sorry, 'fewer'.

[quote name='CamdenRob' timestamp='1427374428' post='2729498'] I know them all anyway as I maintain extensive dossiers on all BCers in my private library... [/quote] I have some more pictures of me in my bikini if you'd like them..?

[quote name='walbassist' timestamp='1427376992' post='2729575'] I would recommend the Demeter without reservation. [/quote] That looks the business. Is it of a similar ilk to the Mesa Prodigy?

[list] [*]Noise – I would like the amp to be whisper quiet when practicing at home. Hissing, fan noise, buzzing etc. would be a definite ‘no' [/list] Ah, you'd have to try a Fusion for yourself in that case, as only you will be able to tell if the fan is too noisy for you. Some people think it makes a row and others don't seem too bothered. It could mean the Fusion is out of the running for you, though. Just sayin'.

[quote name='Conan' timestamp='1427375943' post='2729535'] BTW Mark, did you ever use yours with your Big One (erp!)? How did it sound? [/quote] I did indeed, and it was lush. The Fusion works well with a variety of cabs, but I'm particularly liking it with my Schroeder 21012L... it's just immense. If ever there were a light, portable rig that gets anywhere near the all-valve 810 thing, then this must be it.

Another disappointing thread title!

I thought I'd posted here about the GK MB500 Fusion, but it seems to have disappeared! Anyway, it's as warm, clean and hefty as you like. It looks a bit crap compared with the others, but if you're only concerned with the sound it matters not one jot. Oh yes - it goes bloody loud too, you wont need the 800W version, trust me.

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1427372868' post='2729457'] Did you use double quotes like HJ posted? Didn't work for me either until I did. [/quote] Duh, no! I never use double quotes... hang on... I recognised twelve. Which is pretty poor given the amount of time I spend on here. But then my memory's not what it was. Plus, my memory's not what it was.

[quote name='BigRedX' timestamp='1427372600' post='2729452'] You need to have the quotes around the phrase for it to work. [/quote] Still didn't work for me. I tried 'basschat avatar' as well, but this turns up a lot of men in baseball caps holding up fish.

What about pickup configurations? One P, one P/J, one Jazz, one twin humbucker... ermm... a kazoo... [quote name='Pasco Jacorius' timestamp='1427319998' post='2728975'] I feel like Yoda now... [/quote] He usually turns up around 6.30.

i suppose it depends on whether the processing is a key element of your sound, or whether it's being used to polish a turd.

For ultimate purity, go to an acoustic gig that's not recorded and fondly remember the event later.

[quote name='discreet' timestamp='1427277485' post='2728083'] This I like a lot! [/quote][quote name='Marc S' timestamp='1427281498' post='2728165'] Me too... That's lovely [/quote] There's something about orange and black... it resonates with something from my youth... what could it be??

Probably a stupid question, but did you try plugging it into a different power socket?
