I met a smiling UPS driver
and he had a big smile while pulling out of my driveway...  I know why. Mr. Marshall signed the front too. :) All's cool now. The rocker switches rock and the knobs go to 11 ! LOL. Came with a cool Marshall bottle opener and a little cube tray. Now I have to build a table to set it on in my shop. I previously posted about this but here's the link for those that missed it.

The energy rating indicated (depending on ones rates) that it
costs about $36.00 a year....£22.73 I think.

guitars.....doesn't sound to awful bad..............

:) I'll keep super glue in it....the black kind too Mike. ;) clarification- Mike didn't know about black super glue which is excellent for things like dots on Ebony fretboards.

Ya know, hind site is 20/20, but you should have bought like 10 of them, and sold on eBay for triple what you paid since they are so hard to get. People would snag those up in a heartbeat.
Especially around Christmas time. ;)
Heh.

Now that's thinking Bub!
Maybe I should retrieve the shipping goods from the trash!
I didn't realize they were hard to get. Of course it was a long time
ago when I pre-ordered it.

Noice! I want one too!
There's your first customer Spacey. I'll waive my percentage on this one as a good will gesture, but I expect 15% on all future sales.

The very epitome of cool.
Cool with a suggestion of analogue warmth. On the subject of UPS drivers our regular delivery lady is a pure delight she's been doing this round for years and obviously enjoys her job, she's always smiling, courteous and freindly.
