Bought'd

Played it at the seller's place (huge, awefull sounding room), haven't had a chance to plug it since I took it home.

Sounded a bit boxy and compressed, which didn't at all surprise me considering I'm used to playing a Traynor YBA-1 and 4x12 exclusively for the last 6 months or so. What I'm NOT used to though, and like a lot: A ton of dirt at reasonable volumes, and no back aches when carrying the amp from my car to my house, and up the stairs to the first floor

Btw, that one pick just reignited my GAS for an harmonic percolator damnit
That enclosure looks WAY too secksy to settle for a much more board friendly Frederic Effects clone

Sorry won't buy me a HP

Dibs on the flip?

They're like $9000 these days though, right? :/

haha no way.
Btw mine is a Chuck Collins clone.

Oh I see. Fooled me

Still $300

Actually just found a place that sells vaguely similar looking enclosures. Those fader pots are easy enough to come by too I guess.

Winters get dark and wet around here. Two of everything (enclosures & pots) to build me a HP as well an FM-2 could me a nice way to keep me bussy untill March

Edit: Gave the new combo a good test run in my living room. The honkyness must've been the room, and probably partially the old dull sounding strings on my jazzmaster too. Awesome little amp, with a nice really useable range on the tone control, I don't at all mind the lack of a full blown eq. I find myself riding the vol and tone controls on my guitar more often than usual, but it works like a charm to make my bridge pu sound a bit darker, or the neck a bit less dark. The gain seems to make everything spound a bit dark/muddy, but with both tone controls (amp and gtr) dimed it sounds perfect to me. Or at least as 'perfect' as an amp this cheap can probably get

Zero regrets so far, but I haven't tried the 15Watt setting yet, and I haven't tried any pedals either, besides my Kilobyte. The Kilobyte loves the tt's gain it seems. Sounds a bit like as if it was ran through a (good) effects loop. I've had meh experiences with amp dirt and delay peds, this combination sounds surprisingly juicy
