If you want to borrow my aion stratus, which is an 808 with switchable mid caps, you are welcome to.

Im tending to use a klon instead atm.

glad you are digging it..I bet it sounds awesome in stereo with the Orange

I like the look of the Green Rhino - I'll keep an eye for one local. Not sure I can be arsed with YouShop yet.
Um yeah. Been a while since I used YouShop myself.

Just got jacked $60 delivery for a little Radial Cab Link. Expected it to be $25 like it was last time I used it.

0 stars Not recommended, would not YouShop again.

The TS' mid-hump honk is hit and miss though (very guitar / pickup / amp-dependent) - yes it tightens up because it cuts bass but it also cuts top end sparkle. I would seriously suggest the full size TC Spark boost to smash a gainy amp into higher gain. Gives you some brilliant low gain grit, massive boost, and bass/treble EQ - at a reasonably low price point.

Oh and you're going to need a noisegate too :D
