DSL is kicking azz, those amps are very underated. I fpund on ebay head and 1960 cab good condition for £440 i think, but it was to far away from me and it was collection only :(

That is an insanely cheap deal! Sucks its so far away, hell if i lived over there id drive ya to get the damned thing! Lol

I really do appreciate the amp more and more as time goes by. Any of the DSLs, old and new are amazingly versatile. If someone cant find something in there that works for you, i dont know what to do for them lol you can switch right over into the Classic Gain section and get a clean Plexi sound or in crunch, a dirty 800 sound. Over in Ultra Gain, theres no limit really on how far you can drive them

@Ramo oh no problems man, i understood ya! I appreciate that! Love seeing you guys bring all that you got to the table!

@BFT Gibson thank you my friend! Its a cover from the swedish melodic metal band, In Flames ( i wish i had the talent like alot of you guys here to come up with something original! Im working on that part lol) and yes sir, they are the K100s! Very fun cabinets, lots of thunderous bottom end and mids, like a 75 on steroids lol

@TVvoodoo thank you so much sir! I Truly mean that! Very humbling!

@Astral Traveler thank you so much as well my friend! Thats actually me covering from some fellas from your homeland: In Flames! Not nearly as good as those guys lol

@RVA man thank you so much for that! Yeah this place is crawling out of the woodwork with talent. Im just a hack thats hanging around absorbing everything great around me lol

You all are awesome and thank you for all your kind words! You all make folks try to bring out the best in themselves with your encouragements! I sincerely appreciate that as i try to improve
 
Im still regaining my bearings playing in general. Ive never really stopped but over the past 8 years, i certainly slowed down when life got very busy : went back to school while working, had two kids, wound up with more responsibilities in general. Sadly, i began regressing in the one thing Ive always loved doing and thats playing. But over the past year, i began to pick it back up and fell in love with it again.

I know my limits on it but im absolutely ok with that. Its just a fun and safe release: if im pissed off, bored, kinda down or happily inspired by something arbitrary that happened in my day, its a great way to vent. Beats the hell out of therapy lol
