Awesome day - so much great gear in one room. It makes me wonder though...where are the newbies? In my pre-good gear days, I'd have jizzed in my pants at the opportunity to play any of the guitars / amps in that room today!

:rofl: I don't think it has the same effect when you have to put down your own awesome gear, then choose which other awesome gear you're going to play.

I can't even really list any highlights - everything was great! Good work, lads! And cheers JB and Dave for pulling it (ib;jb :mental: ) all together.

Certainly did. I was noodling through the Orange at the time I think and heard it. Thought: "I'm having some of that!"

Only afterwards did I think we should've got you to set up a jam whereby we could go around the room noodling with our favourite sound.

Loved seeing all the different gear everyone had, good vibe there too
