There's never been a better time to get into this hobby of ours. I can't imagine kids today will be on the internet in 30 years' time moaning about how, in their day, their first amplifiers were those modellers that only sounded 99.9% accurate over 30 amp models, and cost an unaffordable £150.
I played a piano gig on the day i noticed these for sale, where they'd kept me on for an extra hour which has basically paid for the amp once I sell the power amp thing, so I'm hoping it works for me but i won't be too upset if not as the 2nd hand prices seem higher than these offers

Might be a perfect amp to take to jams, to be fair. I'd sooner that than my incoming Two-Rock...

The good thing about buying it new though means at least I have some form of recourse if it doesn't work - send it back or sell it on. Buying second hand is normally more problematic in that sense

just because you do, doesn't mean you should.

I didn't need the 100 other than the midi, but the better sized 60 plus a footswitch would cost the same, so thought why not. Hmm. Was hoping it would sit under my desk haha

The prices I mentioned were valid earlier in the week. Same outcome either way though, despite the give & take coupon.
Pitch effects may take some learning as they didn't sound great, but the delays and modulations are nice enough.
Controls on the top is bit of a faff in the fiddling stage but I think once I've set up my two channels and control footswitch via my HX effects i shouldn't need to fiddle too much with them at home.
The cabinet is quite a bit bigger than I expected but i did forget to check dimensions. Seems a lot of space around the 1x12 speaker inside but I suppose that's helpful in giving a bigger sound. At my low volume playing I suspect it doesn't matter too much.
