edstraker123 Posted August 27, 2009 Author Share Posted August 27, 2009 Hi Steve, Interesting and very strange indeed ! Maybe I should add another £20 to the price then !

If you've never opened up yours have a look inside just in case, but of course the previous owner might have already removed them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

edstraker123 Posted August 27, 2009 Author Share Posted August 27, 2009 I took my assmaster down to Burno70's to compare it to the non germanium model and we found the difference to be negligible, although it could have been down to Ste's effects chain set up.
