More progress pics from Arnoud, including the quote "this should scream by the end of the week". So massively excited right now. Massively.

This is going to come off as ridiculously North Amero-centic, but every time I read Arnoud I just think of The Schwartz saying his own name in his Terminator 2 outfit.

Amp looks rad.

Excited to hear the thrash clips.

Speaking of thrash... Gorgy, you gotta check these guys out:

Who is this Schwartz you speak of? Schwartz makes me think of Rick Moranis. Is this a Spaceballs reference? It's been so long since I've seen that I can't even remember. Rick Moranis makes me think of Ghostbusters.

Timely post on the thrash front. Today's playlist has included

I too think Rick Moranis when I hear about the Schwartz but in this instance I believe we're discussing Arnold Schwarzenegger

Thanks Schnikes. In hindsight that was fairly obvious.

Congrats Matt, the amp looks awesome! Whatcha gonna pair it with for a cabinet?

I think you did something much smarter here than I recently did with my old amp, nice one buddy.

At the moment it is two Framus 2x12s, one with Eminence Texas Heats (nice) and the other with V30s, which I find a little ice picky and honky but I'll see how it goes. May change em for some swamp thangs, or something. I like the portability of 2 separate 2x12s, but I'm kinda keen on an oversize 2x12 with one speaker angled upwards. But there's a lot of GAS between me and that oversize cab :)
