Hi all
I dont feel I have to give anything, however, I am the proud owner of the best marshall I have ever heard from the advice of one mister Oneil on the old forum.

the amp I bought for $800 and it came with a crappy hand made quadbox I wasnt even going to buy the damn thing because I thought it would be a dirty beat up peice of crap that sits in the corner and never gets used

it was taken to an amp doctor, he unmodded it and put it back to original spec. and now it is pure guitar amp sexiness

I also went and heard a langevin dual vocal combo, because Rick mentioned that they were the best value for money out there. I heard it and realised I have a place for it. 2 pres' and limiter for less a 737, or 6176 or amek CIB or any of the current channel strips, and this box definetly holds its own against those channel strips.

Thse 2 bits of advice on the internet given by a guy with a wealth of experience and Knowledge that has never met me have had a massive impact on me.

I was raised to beleive that never take something with out giving some form of apreciation. So Asking a favour from a friend that I grew up with to stop in on his way home from work and delever a slab is the least I could do to show apreciation for the advice, hilarious take on things and not putting me down when I ask the stupid questions and finally for having this forum. I understand you dont have to do it, but i am sure i am not the only one who apreciates it.

The work Mark puts into this is really noticeable and I hope the slab is enjoyed.

Thanks heaps for everything guys

I forgot to add a couple of things.

There are a few members of this forum who have also helped me out in large ways, in particularly getting me one of the greatest amps in history, and also one member helping me getting what I think is my dream studio.

I only visit one other forum which is also aussie, and I guess it goes like the saying a pub is only as good as the people that go there

so cheers everyone for contributions
