Been passed on a contact for an amp tech in South Kirby (not TOO far from Sheff'). Aparently a lover of all thing valve amp, detailed in his work an well priced.

I was playing a show in a rock club of questionable sophistication in Warrington, we'd finished up and started loading out of the fire doors next to the stage. I'd stopped to track down my bottle of water when someone grabs me and says the words you never want to hear....

"Hey mate, some smackhead's just made off out the door with your guitar!"

He'd grabbed the nearest thing off our guitar stand and legged it into the darkness. The load out stopped and we made off in after him. We eventually caught up with him, he'd dumped it in a patch of grass just off the main road, and tried to make an exit from the seven angry scousers who were in hot pursuit.

Unbelievably, we got it back to the venue, and there wasn't a single scratch or dent on it. Those things are indestructible [/quote]

If I caught up with someone who attempted to steal one of mine I would add another ding to the beast by using it to teach the thief a lesson. Scum.
The first is always the worst!

That is a nice looking amp, looks to be in great condition! Cab looks interesting too!

Praise to Stringbusters, quality service. Been using 'em for ages.

Cheers for your advice etc everyone. I'll try them out this evening and see what happens!

It got everywhere! Any tips on cleaning the insides once dried out?

[quote name='cockbongo' post='136430' date='Feb 8 2008, 12:12 PM']Ok,

Recently bought a GCB-100 Bass Cry Baby Wah pedal off these very forums last week and have decided that its not for me - paid £42.50 for it delivered so that's what i'm asking.

Also have my trusty old Boss ODB-3 distortion pedal for sale, £25 delivered.

Any questions, please ask.

Cheers![/quote]

very true

That's not funny at all, terrible joke! I don't like Kronenburg.

Last night a FULL can of bear decided to empty itself all over my pedal board (power brick, boss TU2, Emma ReezaFratZitz, DI box)....amazing! Hope it all works when it finally dries out!

Hello there,
