Hey! so i just heard some clips of the Splawn Pro Mod 100 and the Quick Rod and i think that's the sound i want to go for but i need to hear more. How much do these things cost?

Also, is shipping an Amp overseas quite tricky due to the possibility of serious damage during transit? that's one thing that might put me off

Not sure of the purchase price , but you'll need to add about 5% import duty and then 17.5% VAT.
Re potential damage whilst shipping-shouldn't be a problem if they pack it properley.

Scott packs the amp like it's going to be through a war; my Quick Rod arrived in perfect shape, tho it was only shipped to the Northeast Corridor.

All of the prices are right on the web site: www.splawnguitars.com.

The site seems to be down today for some reason.

I want one too (QR) :(

but then I want a lot of things.

But yeah, I don't think you need to worry about the shipping, as ben says. I think the splawns have a variable voltage selector too (right, ben?) so you can order it from the USA with no bother. I'd say expect customs to be around 23%...

I think the QR was $1800 last time I checked, you'd need to convert that to £, then add shipping and customs...

My amp came over from Holland and was packed really well with no problems.

Cool choice, go for it!

I might be interested in that Quickrod for a try out! I've got a Koch Powertone II. I'd love to hear them along side each other. Up to you Dude  8)

^ Good idea Tom!

I don't live near Heathrow Boz, but I bet we could drown out the noise of a 747 with a Splawn and a Koch from your shed!  :lol:

Well we can try an organise something, the more the merrier!  It's got to be more fun than a giant computor party!  :wink:

Well if they can do it New Jersey then we can do it here! I doubt we would get the amount of choice as we don't have a Phil K over here...... well there is a guy called Jon' over here but he's a busy man!  :wink:
