Looks like another good day in the Tron, thanks for the donations. Never got my bloody roof fixed but did do lots of other things around the house that put a smile on the missus face so there you go...

Man, it totally does! I am not an SG guy at all but Ops Guy said that I had to try it (and the room was empty so my usual 'no playing guitar in front of forumites' rule was still preserved) and woah!

Wow, looks incredible. I'm always gutted to miss the TronFest, as there are large stacks of gear that I would give eye teeth to try out.
