Having watched this thing hanging on the wall in my LGS or the thick end of two years, I decided to give it a whirl. That i happened to be wearing a suit for once no doubt aided my cause in having the request granted (although, paradoxically, I'm actually totally broke, as opposed to the times I went in in jeans and a t-shirt and was relatively flush) and I plugged it up to an old Marshall to see if it was worth a damn at all.
To my (quite large) surprise, it turned out to be a bit of a monster. it played beautifully, balanced well and sounded pretty decent.
The question. I'm (in theory) in for a bit of a big windfall soon. Should i buy it, or is it just too fugly to consider. Because, let's face it, it's clearly made of flamed Uglytree.
