Beyond a critical point within a finite space, freedom diminishes as numbers increase. This is as true of humans as it is of gas molecules in a sealed flask. The human question is not how many can possibly survive within the system, but what kind of existence is possible for those who so survive.

That and a couple of previous R9's have almost forced me to re-evaluate my feelings towards G guitars!

Re: where have all the fancy amps gone
I went through hoops importing my "fancy" amps. So the readily available, mass produced stuff would have to go first when it's time for sale.
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

Yip, I would hang that on the wall as artwork. I won't get a decent sound out of it anyway
When faced with quality, I recognise it every time.

It makes a very impressive sound combined with a Tone King Royalist!

Those tops on the last couple have been fantastic. There was a GREAT batch of top wood in 2019 as well.

Tea burst is definitely my favourite, always looks even better in the flesh too!

Hmmmm. I know where a Royalist is lying undisturbed in a cupboard.

What a strange and awkward song. Lovely chorus, truly wild verses. But overall still I think I liked it. Weird.

Re: where have all the fancy amps gone
I purchased a beautiful Goodsell super seventeen about ten years ago, I figured out through the Grapevine it was probably stolen and handed it in to the police to be reunited with its owner somewhere.

Re: where have all the fancy amps gone
Oh man, that’s one of my favourite amps. I’ve owned two of the combo version, but would love to track down a head version.

Re: where have all the fancy amps gone
I know. It's way too much amp for me though.

Re: where have all the fancy amps gone
coincidentally I've been GASsing for a AC15 handwired model, Music Planet has got Black November sale going and this seems to be an okay price?
