[quote name='warwickhunt' post='521144' date='Jun 22 2009, 08:53 PM']You're well within your rights to respond but just to clarify... have you been threatening toward the OP and have you made any reference to finding out who his band is and getting some one to sort him out? Also exactly how did you package a fragile valve amp and regardless of whether 'you' think the amp was plenty loud enough with 2 valves (louder than a 5k rig ... really?), don't you think it should have been shipped with the requisite number? I am confused however as to who has been refunded by PayPal?[/quote] The Sound City B200 can use 2 or 4 valves. We always used it as a 2 valve output because of it's extreme volume(+120db at 1 metre) and tone. I would defy anybody except a stadium player to be able to use it with all 4 tubes. Yes, I promised to collect from this character because he f**ked up a perfectly good amp which is now lost to us all. He did not have the guts to come out and say so and that kinda pissed me off. Sorry. Non of the carriers believe him, and Paypal spoke in person to my neighbour who received the amp back in front of 2 of his serving policeman friends, who by the way owe me nothing. You could say we were lucky, but the only way for us to recover is to sue him or return the pile of crap that came back to Paypal for the refund. He knows the size of the stunt he has pulled, but how gullible are you lot?

Hello bass players of Earth. Could not help seeing the crap written about us by your Johnny Hoof, and in the interests of balance you should know that Paypal granted our appeal on the basis that the amp was damaged beyond repair coming back to us and that Mr Hoof had blown up the output transformer when he used it at a rehearsal without the right load on the speaker output. If he had only said that he had made a mistake and wanted to return it, we would have gladly come and got it. Or paid for its return. It was a classy amp. For you non valve people, we used it with only 2 output tubes at a rehearsal for one of our endorsees and it was too loud. Louder than the 5K Martin PA, 4 4X12's and an extreme drummer. Can you imagine how all 4 would pull a mind apart? Not pretty! Instead he tries to justify his actions by trashing us. We build great amps. We ship all over the world. Our amps all come with an unlimited lifetime warranty, and I would just ask what we gain out of this? Wouldn't you get angry?
