@underdog It's on my Harley benton 2x12 at the moment and is a perfect fit.

I use the cab upright, not as standard.

I'll take a pic for you when I get home later

I'm not on Twatter or Instagram I'm afraid.

They would have sold more if they made it as a head

I probably would've bought one (with a FX loop), instead of getting the Atma.

When I got the amp the lack of a loop was a major sore point for me.

Luckily I found a great loop and a great price and there was plenty of room in the chasis to install it.

In the standard 5 watt mode it sounds fantastic even at low volumes it is just a great amp.

I went off the Marshall tone years ago but being a slash fan and for the sale price I thought it was worth a punt.

So glad I did as it covers so many bases

Yeah it's a perfect fit and looks great apart from the tatty cab.

Looks like you're talking yourself into it.

I was always going to have it made in to a head but with the idea of sending it off to be done, but seeing how good a job you've done makes me think there'd be no need to send it anywhere

The silly prices they wanted and the turn around times of 6-8 weeks put me right off.

Plus they wanted the chasis for the whole time for measurements. I couldn't do without it for that long either.

An afternoons work and I did it myself all for the price of a tin of adhesive

Have you got this up for sale on eBay at the moment?

Bang in a Fryette power station and make it a giggable monster!

TimmyO · January 2016

Brilliant!

If I'm not mistaken, I believe I am now the proud owner of this beastie
