Brilliant amps - similar in tone to the old Hiwatt/Marshall Superlead stuff. REALLY loud, takes pedals well, cuts nicely with a band. I've seen a few being used, all providing BIG tone. Provided it's reliable you're set up nicely there - bargain price too!!! Winner!! :party:

Get yourself a nice Marshall 1960 under that and you're laughing. Does this sudden influx of gear mean the mightly Conan might be kicking out the jams sooner than planned?? :dance:

How's that Studio going on? If you ever decide to shift it....... ;)

Cheers Fellers.

I reckon people are being more frugal now with Xmas on the way and all.

The guy doesn't live too far away from me so I am going to go and collect the bastard this week. I am trying to get myself a meathead or a meathead deluxe but I am struggling :O( - I KNEW I shouldn't have sold my old one.............. FUCK!!!!!

Collecting a flat fronted 4x12 for around £60 at the weekend (haven't got a clue what make it is etc) but I am going to match it up with a HIWATT 4x12 I have my eye on.

I am meeting the drummer and the bass player on Thursday to discuss it all but yeah I reckon it's that time again....

I reckon we will go under a different name tho, I wan't to step away from singing and just play guitar - the bass player is into all that screaming and growling stuff so we will see how things evolve around it.

It will be similar stuff to CONAN plus extremely slow stuff too I reckon......

David, I don't suppose you want to let you Earthbound Supercollider go do you??????

Yeah, the Supercollider is gone. It was cool, but not as good as either the Ram or the Hoof. Like Sickle said, keep your eye out for some MHs on here.

Sounds good about the band, your rig is righteous already!! I'm looking forwared to hearing hwta you do next. I'd keep the name Conan though, that's a great name!
