Thanks Rich. Great to meet you, too. Flu jab is booked. Hope your trip to Cyprus goes OK - I'm sorry that I forgot to offer my condolences when we met. Kindest regards, Pete

Just been down to see Rich to complete a deal for his Roadworn Jazz. What a great guy! I had a cup of coffee and an hour's worth of chat with him. Brilliant! Thanks for the coffee, Rich and the ultra-smooth transaction. Highly recommended! Best regards Pete

I used to have a Tech 21 VT pedal. They are excellent at achieving the really warm sound of valves without going to too much expense. Well worth trying. I used mine all the time, just sat there on top of my Aguilar DB751. I only sold it on when I sold the 751 and bought a Matamp GT200. That gives me the real deal.

[quote name='kennyrodg' timestamp='1346365003' post='1788532'] I let a bass go with my lovely old DR Sunbeams on. Silly me as the older they get the better I like 'em. I put a wanted ad up for some used Sunbeams and Pete came up trumps. He sent them first class, they arrived next day and all he asked was that I make a donation to BC. What a true gent if ever there was one !! Thanks very much indeed Pete, you've saved me a couple of months of hard work playing them in and a fair amount of cash to boot, it's very much appreciated. Cheers for everything Buddy, Pete. [/quote] Hi Pete Glad to be of help and a pleasure to meet you on BC. Regards Pete

[quote name='jetofuj' timestamp='1345313160' post='1776222'] Has anyone already tried the new GT200? I also wonder if depth and presence controls are still useful with bass/mid/treble tone stack? [/quote] I find the Depth control to be very useful. When I first bought the amp it seemed that only the 10 o'clock and 12 o'clock positions would be any good. That was until I was playing in a small, very enclosed room that was very very boomy. The only setting that would allow the bass to cut through without it going muddy was the 2 o'clock position! Kudos to Matamp for seeing that one! The Prescence I don't really use so can't comment, I'm afraid. Hope this helps Regards Pete

Just sold my DB751 to Andy. Great guy and very easy to deal with. Prompt payer and good communications ensuring a very swift and straight forward transaction. Thanks Andy

Thanks, Andy. Pleasure to do business with you. Regards, Pete

Sold Chris my Tech 21 VT Bass pedal. Very smooth transaction. Quick payment and fast collection. Great guy to deal with and thoroughly nice bloke.

Glad you like it, Chris. It was great to meet you, too. All the best, Pete

[size=4][font=Arial]Just taken delivery of my new GT200 for its first gig On Saturday gone.[/font] [font=Arial]Some feedback from Saturday night's gig from the guitarist in VagaBond[/font][/size] [b][i][i]Hey Pete,[/i][/i] [i][i]First of all the amp sounds amazing. Its a million times better than your old one. Such a huge warm deep sound, very musical sounding if that makes sense! (You know what i mean). I cant believe what a difference it has made.[/i][/i] [i][i]Cheers[/i][/i] [i][i]Scotty[/i][/i] [i]My "old one" was an Aguilar DB751 so it's great that my new GT200 got such brilliant praise and recognition. The feedback was completely unsolicited. [/i] [i]The other band playing on the bill also used our backline and we were blown away by the beautifully warm and creamy bass tone that really cut through the mix.[/i][/b] [size=4][font=Arial]I can't thank you guys at Matamp enough for building me a bass masterpiece![/font] [font=Arial]Kindest regards[/font] [font=Arial]Pete[/font][/size]
