Cheers guys  :)

Matt - IceHotel is incredible, just make sure you've got deep pockets - I think it's just about bankrupted me!

You could always sell the AFD!

Looking forward to hearing some clips - surely some classic GnR has to be played!

Other than Nighttrain - which you just HAVE to play on this amp - I don't know actually know much of Appetite  :oops:

I can't wait to get Francine back from her holiday safe-keeping place and try her out through the AFD...

I only really know Nighttrain and Sweet Child. That is all.

Cheers Don!  I had a superb holiday thanks, didn't realise I'd mentioned it to anyone????

Here's a little teaser of where I went  ;)









Northern Ireland last week?

Seriously, though, looks cool. Nice score on the amp too. :)

Here's a very quick and dirty clip of the amp in my living room at loud TV volume on the AFD setting.  I've got to say, it records great even on my basic Sony digital camera!

Sounds really great - wish I had more room and loads of money
Maybe see if Egnater /Randall will clone it.....(althogh the Egnater Sl2x module used to be called the GNR)

Cheers guys.  I mucked about with preamp valves before recording the clip and it now has:

V1: Marshall badged JJ (came in the amp in this position)
V2: Regular JJ
V3: Stock Shuguang Marshall
V4: Stock Shuguang Marshall
V5: Groove Tubes JJ

The two extra JJs have fattened the tone a touch which is nicer at lower volumes.  Can't wait to crank it now, might get the chance on Monday...

That's really a great sound. Maybe this is one the best Marshalls ever made.

I seriously think it is, and it has the biasing technology and power scaling all in for £1199.  That makes it great value for money in my book too.

At gig volumes it should sound amazing!

Watching that clip, I tend to agree!

Imagine how good it sounds a) recorded properly and b) with a great player!

It "feels" good too, even though the insides suggest it might not...
