When I shipped tube amps, I used to place them in a plastic bag of a large size and tape it. After that I wrapped the amp inside multiple, multiple layers of bubble wrap, then a tighlty fitting cardboard box which I taped very well. After that additional layers of cushion (bubble wrap or...

Best wishes for You and Yours, Mike! So sorry to hear about this... I hope all goes well! 🙏

I played an YJM Strat unplugged while watching TV in the living room. 🤷

How would You compare the JP2C and IIC++ RI?

Although I love the in-ears at apartment volumes it still feels nicer to play thru Genelecs. It is ridiculous how little things improve the feeling and inspire. 😩

BB pre , TS and SD-1 You have already, it seems like. I love DOD YJM308/Fender Malmsteen OD in front of a Marshall with the YJM Strat. Klon KTR and Analogman Prince of Tone work nicely as well.

I have switched to Uber almost 100% die to it feeling the safest. Apparently not everything goes well as Your example shows! 🙈🤣

I bought a Quad Cortex a bit over a year ago and I love the tone and the feel of it! However there is something that is very inspiring even when playing tube amps thru a reactive load and listening to the tones thru high quality monitors. These are amazing times to be a guitarist! 😎 So many...

Your writing was great! Been to Rome and Colosseum, Barcelona and Athens which You mentioned and of course one needs to stay alert on what is going around You. 🙏

Sounds great!!! You are a very good guitarist as well! 👌

Must be a twisted person to do this kind of thing or even imagine someone doing it...

I hope this is the case with my amp as well. I really want it...

Key West, Miami and then a bit north to see Kennedy Space Center and maybe the Universal studios etc.

Not to mention how nice it is to visit USA as well! Stayed in Dallas, TX, a few years ago for a month and the people were amazing. Truly loved it there! Off to Florida for a vacation next January. 😍

Indeed. Maybe, and I hope, the amp is so good nobody wants to sell it. 😁 No new updates of the one I bought around 4 weeks ago from German retailer. The last info was that a shipment from Mesa should arrive somewhere around mid/end of August.
