Best of luck![/quote] Cheers Andy, its quite difficult to photo, the colour is slightly darker than it looks on the pics, kind of cherry like, as you say, a pretty bass!

Fancy coming over and giving it a try? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've decided to shave another hundred quid off the asking price (now £999) as I want a quick sale, so there you go, a new status for under a grand!
