    Smallbox 50 order (small mods..?!?)

    I am planning to order a Smallbox 50 through one of the european dealers. Ideally I would need one with a switchable effects loop (I could live without that) and a second master volume for the plexi channel (I couldn't live without that, I desperately need a second master volume for my live...
