    I saw that recently, cool looking little amp! Those guys take trade-ins too, so I was thinking about doing a deal maybe...

    Yeah, I went in there looking for a guitar, which tbh, I'll be buying at the weekend. Sound bunch to deal with, so I'd go back for an amp when I get the funds up again. Trade-in thing's interesting! Not many places doing that these days.

    I bought a Thomann Harley Benton GA5, 5 watt valve amp (same as the Epiphone Valve Junior apparently) a couple of years ago, now discontinued, for about 80 0r 90euro.

    Dull enough sounding without effects, bit mushy etc.
    With effects you can compensate quite well, and it is extremely loud for 5w.

    I like the look of the Bugera V5 but it has its limitations too.....

    New toy here. For 15e its great. We do love our toys!
