I thought you lived south and thought the fire was north, fort colins area. My faintly livesin greeley. And I haven't heard and craziness from them. I'm off to bed....... Drunk!!!!
They don't have much else in the way of bass pedals. They make customs and when you link it, it tries to open outlook. Guess it's an email link, obviously.
My next pedal will be some kind of used wah, I'm sure. Then synth for a little fun.
Demon, now you are super lucking out on an old school Acoustic. Dang... am I turning green...
? 
The fire is in Colorado Springs. It's just on the other side of the interstate about 7 miles from my house. Ash was falling from the sky earlier.
Why? What's the national news saying?

Well I already have one (450) I like to keep 70's solid state amps around as backups. My 450 is getting fixed now and my Traynor TS-200 needs to go in once I get the 450 back. As much as I love my tube amps I'm a sucker for those old solid state heads. I could care less about any of the newer ones that are out. 
I'll take my 170w Acoustic over most of the newer production amps any day. That thing is loud as ****.
One of my friends scored a Sunn Concert bass for $50 a couple of months ago because it had a bad circuit breaker ( they had circuit breakers instead of fuses) I fixed it for him for $4 in parts (it has a fuse now instead) I've tried to buy it off him but he wont sell it. He won't sell me his V9 cab either (Ampeg 9x10)

6,200 acres, over 20,000 homes and over 200 businesses thus far. This on the heels of a hail storm about 3 weeks ago that caused flash flooding and hailed the size of softballs. I thought my roof was going to cave in so I pointed my cabs at the ceiling and fought back! LOL.

I hear ya on that. I got an old SS Mark III Peavey that I need to have rehoused and fixed. Local vintage shop charges a $60 bench fee and honestly, I can score a working one on ebay for like $100 so I haven't felt the need yet. My old Acoustic was BOSS. I guessed it was the 220 based on the lookof it from memory. I don't remember seeing a number on it and when my uncle gave it to me, I had to replace the power cord. Had that done at Blackbird Music in Brandon, Florida. The dude there guessed it ran about 300 watts based on the components in the amp. He looked all impressed by it too. I clearly remember him saying how amps aren't made like this any more and yada yada this amp is overbuilt and will last forever as long as I don't abuse it. Well, I sure hope some jerk out there is enjoying my amp.
Looks nice but I think it's too much. They make ok bass cabs. I would really love to find a head. SVT with built in distortion.
Yeah seems like 1450 has been the popular price...
By all means let me know if/when your ready to let yours go, i may be in a good place to pick it up!
However, I am getting pretty "amped" for the meatsmoke.
Laz congrats on the Ric! I hope it's as amazing as I envision them to be!
Talking on Orange AD200B, I have kinda problem with it. I don't know if it's worth showing to the tech.
I've toured with it about 5000 km previous autumn going bad and awful roads, and everything was ok. Recently, after the latest gig, I've discovered that I feel some vibration coming from the amp when I touch its front panel. The sound is ok. I don't know if its 50HZ hum (mains electricity is pretty bad where I live) or some amp issue.

The site still says he's a Matamp dealer.
As I about to drunkenly pass out last night Mrs. Fuzz bursts into the bedroom, also drunk.
Wife: Your not going to believe this. There are fires in "the springs" where my friend is and they might have to evacuate.
Me: Yeah, I know.
Wife: What the hell do you mean "You know"???
Me: About the fires.
Wife: Well how the hell do you know about the fires??
Me: Nerd-forum.
Wife: Your stupid bass website????
Me: Yup
Then wife makes a grunt noise and storms out of the bedroom.
