Wow, that's HOT!!!

[Chef]

please note:
dialing in that much bass on the preamp is *too much* and likely to kill things like small speaker cabs.

Thats some kinda record right there.

truth be told, chris and I closed the deal yesterday.
i listed it here so the bass can be found if someone is looking for it, and so we can feedback each other; and to post pix for chris.

What a way to slay someone one. Saw the post - crapped my pants, checked my savings, started justifying it. Scrolled down and it says sold.......like a freaking dagger through my heart!

Chris so sweet - Congrats man!
