KMC, sorry dude! I bid $700 max if it makes you feel better though.

:laugh2: Well at least I saved you $40. By missing the Auction.

EZ and Tightpants, thanks a lot! Tight, you can still get one on eBay. I mean you can find them on there sometimes. One ended the other day at $800+shipping.

Yeah, I know, I check on 'em every once in a while!! There is just no cure GAS

I know that feeling. GAS is awesome and sucks at the same time.

Also, good luck to whoever with that Gem on eBay now! I hope someone from here wins it!

Dudes - the photos don't even do that color justice!!!! Awesome BigAl...glad you love it - rock on! Take it to a GC or somewhere, tell them you are amp shopping. Plug it into a Marshall w/ tubes and see how it sounds...

It is hard to give the guitar/color justice. Thanks Ace!

All of my amps so far (except for my 1.5 watt Fender Mini-Deluxe) have been tube, and I will never buy SS because of it. But yeah I was thinking about taking it to my music store and plugging it into some JCMs, some Orange amps, and then a few Fenders. I wanna try this PAF pup out. The Super D is pretty cool, I figured that out pretty fast.
