No, really. We thought that it was funny, this guy opens a shop in KK and carries these, 'not usual' brands, like tokai (the talbo cost about 6 k, i remember, all metal), Hughs & kettner, rotosound strings, and wind instruments. We asked him if he was making money, he said no, but his parents want to keep him in KK so they just keep dumping money into the shop. Dumping was the word he used. Next, he wanted to distribute Gretsch guitars, went to germany and all that.

Exactly what I thought. The signal goes into a valve preamp before the solid state circuit.

Nonetheless, the clips posted on their website are tempting! Does anyone knows where to find this Vox amp? CKMusic?? I've tried the smaller version (30 watts I think) of Spider II and wasn't really impressed by the sound.

Woah... 1000 for 30watt?? Ishi's selling it for RM800+ inc shipping lol! If only the voltage problem could be solved!

Thanks for you offer, but I've runned out of cash, I'ill see what I can do end of this year tongue.gif . Considering the AD50VT tho since it has an external speaker out & giggy. thumbup.gif

Did ya modify your amp?? I've read reviews citing the AD30VT's speaker has room for improvement.

I've seen this one already hehe... they guy's bloody good! Lovely jazz blues licks! Thx anyway!

evo.com, it depends on the item you order but I doubt it should cost you a bomb. Around RM200 (including insurance) or more maybe? They use EMS to ship their stuff, which is very reliable. thumbup.gif
Plus, their customer service's pretty good as far as I know.

Most of the Jap made stuff are cheaper, the rest's pretty much the same (or more).
