:) :) My first win was for a 1x12" Laney extn cab with 1x12" Celestion 70/80 for my Laney VC30-210. Normally about £139, the cheapest new price I found was £99 plus £10 delivery. Got this for £56.73 plus £10 delivery!
Been playing it today - awesome! Brand new condition, & delivered lightening fast properly packaged in the original box, it adds the bottom end and fuller tone missing from the more vintage sounding 2x10 Jensen C10Q16's. The combination is awesome - been playing it all afternoon - just wish the Mrs was out so I could crank it up! ;D ;D
Second win was today, for a BBE Sonic Stomp, which I've heard great things about & wanted to try out for myself, both in the FX loop of my Valvetronix AD120VTX, and the Laney. My local music shop are getting the BBE stomp in stock - price £79.95. They can be had on E-bay for £59.95 plus £8.95 p/p. Even at that price, I wasn't prepared to buy one just to experiment.
But I found a new one being sold on E-bay with a start price of £30 plus £6.95 p/p. So, I thought what the heck & bid £30, assuming it would be snapped up for much more.
Well, blow me down if I didn't actually win it!! :D ;D
OK, the power supply is US, but I have a brand new spare (UK) multi-DC adapter anyway. So, should get this early next week, and I'll give it a go. At that price, I can always sell it on if I'm not pleased with it. But if it really does add something to my tone, then I think I may have got myself a bargain!
