GK Fusion 550 vs. Ampeg SVT7 Pro

Awesome amp mate. Hope you been pullin through all the shakes ok. Did you save much by buying in the US? A few years ago I bought a 700rbII in San Fran then stuffed it into a bag only slighty bigger than the amp, and carried it onto the plane. Then changing the voltage internally.
 
Daniel, yeah I'm in the west so my house is okay... We're on the Waimak river rock so it supports us a bit better than sand!
It was less than half the price actually... NZD1128 including state tax. NZD2500 at Rockshop.
I managed to get mine on as carry-on also. It isn't big in size, just weight (approx. 13kg/28lb), so I just had to make it look light as I walked onto the plane :D
High mid fault seems to be intermittent... Working fine at the moment :hmm:
 
Nice! How much do those things weigh? Very light aren't they?
I have an Ashdown ABM 4x10... Great sounding cab. I've got to say... The combo of this & the Fusion give me the sound I've had in my head. Sure won't be changing it any time soon!
