Its finally arrived!!!!!
« on: August 21, 2007, 01:46:32 PM »
.... a day under 8 weeks since i ordered but its well worth the wait:



some of you may have been wondering why i re-covered a cab in red tolex after ordering my little rock - hopefully that makes sense now :wink:

this things awsome.  I am not much of a player anymore, i mainly ordered it because i needed a good amp for people that were coming round to try stuff out.  I wanted a minimat II but dave suggested the little rock would be better for its versatility.  'But i want a red and white  one' say i and here we are!!  I cant really say they will do this for anyone - they wouldnt have done it for me if it wasnt for that fact its mainly gonna be a demo model for my guitars, and therefore their amp so dont go saying 'but you did wez one in red :cry: ;

Been playing (badly) for the last couple of hours and its great, i was just randomly turning knobs to see what happened and it all sounds excellent -so far i am favouring the thickest clean voice with volume and master on full.

Some people have said the voice switch doesnt make much difference, i think it does but i generally prefer a thicker sound anyway - definately worthwhile though.

I was gonna convert my kit champ amp into a head and cover it red to have both of them on the cab but it really doesnt seem worthwhile. The little rock can get quite close to that anyway and do a hell of a lot more!!

the speakers are mcKensies which were standard on carlsboro cabs at the time.  they look just like greenbacks construction wise - i havnt checked the codes yet

here was the discussion from when i re-tolexed the cab

I got up early to have a shower this morning and ended up chasing a rat around my bathroom.  When you see a cat staring at a radiator and a tail sticking out of the bottom of the radiator, you know it's going to be a bad day.  Ended up catching the poor little bugger and got it outside away from Dweezil (the little killing machine).  Went  back in and into the front room and the little git had left a dead one there.  Little git.
