Okay, so I've got an engagement party on this day which I kinda have to attend given that I'm a groomsman.

But I'll try and make it along from 12-2ish.

Will bring Splawn (you bring ear plugs) and cab if I can.

Good date, my missus is going out for a work dinner the night before, so I will have leave pass points to cash in.

I shall be there.

If you like, but I was referring to your Gretsch guitars in the plural.

Most likely the only one in the country I'd imagine.
You have an Ultra Lead right? Would be keen to check that out. Some says the stock GP3 has a lot less gain than the UL but I've never got to try the UL in person...
Amps:
Soldano SLO100 x2 | Wizard MC1 & MC2 | Diezel Herbert
Fryette Pittbull CL | Marshall 2203KK | Krank Rev 50 | Mesa Mark 2A

Rack stuff:
VHT/Fryette GP3, GP/DI & 2/90/2 | Peters FSM/Chimera
Verellen Meatsmoke | Synergy SYN1 | Mesa Studio

Yep, will bring the UL.
A comparison would be cool.

Are you using the the RyanMod 800's power section for the Peters & GP3?
EL34's?

Awesome. The ultimate comparison would be running the GP3 into the UL's fx return I guess.

Yeah I'll use the 800 as the power amp, it runs 6550. Let's set up next to each other so you can easily try the Peters through your own cab (and power section) as well.

I'm in.

I'll bring some stuff. JMI, /13 & cab, Princeton are in. Unless someone has a burning desire to lap up some Morgan AC20D toans?

SG Jnr, Standard, R9, DuoJet maybe.
