I'd go for Matamp over Hiwatt any day, but then I would say that. For me Hiwatts are way too clean.

 :lol: No they're not.

I have one V, but its not a Gibbo.

Gibson have seriously fallen out favour with me. Shocking wiring and workmanship in these last few years...and not to mention prices...

Gibsons are hardly ever shielded.  In the 70s they used these weird shielding "cans" that surrounded the electronics, but I don't think they've ever used foil or conductive paint shielding.
