Didn't use the Rack, but I did have a POD XT Live for a while (with the Bass Expansion Pack). It was good, but there are better options out there. I replaced the XT Live with a POD HD 500X, and it sounded so much better than the XT, and the effects were far better too. It's the generation on from the XT. The downside is that there are far less bass amp/cab options, but they all sound very good. You should be able to pick up a HD X Rack for a reasonable amount.

Give Matamp in Huddersfield a call.

I signed up my son for the free trial of Melodics when he got his Alesis kit, but he didn't take to it. Might be worth looking at? https://melodics.com/drums

Seemed to go down really well, plenty of mistakes on my part, especially the brain fart where I completely blanked the intro to one song. Played our new song for the first time live, and that went down really well.

Bought one for my lad a few years ago, great kit. Although they're a darn sight quieter than a full acoustic kit, they aren't quiet, especially if it's going in an upstairs room.

I tried flats a few times, not a fan, sorry.

I downloaded the Celestion Pulse 10 pack from Celestion Plus. Can't recall which particular IR I'm using, but it is one of the 4x10 IR's, loaded onto a POD Go, with an SVT4 amp model. I think it sounds good, others may differ. Contemplating the BN10-200X IR's... But Celestion also do the Bergantino IR's. EDIT: Had to run through a few songs last night, so fired up the POD Go, and checked the IR that's loaded up. It's the Pulse 10 410 S AKG D114 Dark 2. Think I might need to sit down and go through the IR's again, just to see if there are any others that appeal.

Killing in the Name Of - Rage Against the Machine

I think it's a HW

The TRC doesn't look quite right either, it looks as though it's printed, rather than the usual "raised" lettering. Might be a build by a certain British luthier who does very accurate replicas.

I'm no expert on these, but the truss rod area and the neck pickup rout just don't look quite right. And shouldn't they have a "skunk stripe" as well?

Paul Gray is a really great player.

Any note from a Scottish Bank is out of line across the border. And paper notes have of any denomination (or country of origin) haven't been legal currency for a few years now. Got stung with that a while ago, stopped at a cafe for a brew, paid and was given a paper £5 with the change. When I needed to pay cash for something later that day, I was told that it wasn't legal tender, and that I'd have to take it to the bank, or back to the vendor. Went back to the cafe and sorted it.

Think that they were a special run for some US shop in 2022 apparently.

Fabulous and rare.

It's certainly different! I do quite like it though.
