I think they, like, toooootally suck ASS.

(I haven't tried one either)

I thought Caparison was an astrological  star sign.

This is the dawning of the age of Caparison, age of Caparison, Caparrrisssoooooonnn....   :sing1:

[Twinfan]

At least it wasn't Caparison GAS!!!  :lol:

[dave_mc]

i actually quite liked the caparison i tried, just the price was a bit ridiculous.

PRS are a non-profit charitable foundation, dedicated to bringing music to the world. Paul shuns the dollar, refusing to turn his passion into a business, and build guitars himself in a small workshop, and sells them at cost-plus-minimum-wage to customers he knows by name.

And is this how you run Martamp?... because to be frank your amps are great but I know a few things i'd upgrade on one if I were producing them, I wouldn't use Ceriatone Iron personally, but profit factors in doesnt it?

everyone is out to make a buck Martin, and you stand by your product as much as Paul stands by his, don't stand there being all high and mighty preaching from the high heavens about quality, because I've tried em all over the past 17 years and I work in a shop were I get to try lots and lots of guitars and PRS are outstanding.

Unbelievable!   :x

Try reading my posts, you'll see that you are way off beam.  :lol:  FFS I've said several times I'm not criticising ANYONE!!!!!

The bit you quoted was IRONY. I was making the point that PRS are in it to make a profit just like anyone else.
I'm not "getting all high and mighty and preaching about quality". Read my posts again!

As for trannies, I use CERIATONE trannies on CERIATONE amps when the customer has ordered a CERIATONE and wants to pay CERIATONE prices.  Get it?   
(In fact most Ceriatone transformers are pretty good.  I think both Dave and I, plus at least Sambo on this forum will attest to that.)
I use many other types of transformers in my other amps, as I see fit, and on customer request, which YOU KNOW because it's one of the things you've asked me in your various price requests. Allow me to quote myself from an email to you, 13th January 2009:

"I currently do the TW Express replica for £950, in standard Martamp spec with Ceriatone transformers.
You can specify alternative transformers if you like, and I’ll charge the appropriate extra amount. You can also supply your own, and I’ll deduct the transformer cost from the price"

I know you also said you weren't challenging the quality, just the over pricing but it's all relative, and the exclusiveness of anything can drive the price up, u think 10 top maple grows on trees? ;)

If you know I'm not challenging the quality, why say what you did in the rest of your post?
And if I'm challenging OVER-pricing, think about it. I'm not saying 10 tops should be cheap, am I?  :roll:

You're correct i missed the mark and im sorry, but i managed to wind u up real good..  8)

oh.... man... that song is going to be stuck in my head until I sleep now.

Cheers!  :lol:

think i missed the carparison ordeal, so will jump in here with my 2c. i think they suck too.
my mate had a horus a few years back, it was ok, but just ok. dont like them lookwise, other than the angelus.
they are way too expensive for what they are and i cant stand the amount of fanboys they seem to have.
its like if a rubbish band like fall out boy was made into a guitar. for some unknown reason very popular, with expensive ticket prices, but just really not that good, best to avoid. :chain:

I'm too old for this stuff.... :?
I'm off to build amps. This week, I'm mostly using British Danbury transformers.
