My band (Deluxe Edition) are playing before Tin Palace, who are awesome, and Kings, who is famous. Come along, check out the sound of cra...

Reworking for tomorrow's Summer Hummer in Masterton.

I had a Warm Audio Foxy Tone Fuzz on there but received a dud, so back it goes

Most excellent. I will send you a message! Thinking more like a classic Ampeg look but not fussy about materials.

Topic change soz: I picked up a (very beaten up, but still functioning) Mesa M-Pulse 600 head from cash converters. The rack case is totally destroyed, and I need a new one. Before I look at rack cases, does anyone have an empty Mesa head case lying around? DSC_0032.jpg I know someone who could bui...
