Brian, guitar looks great. Always wanted one myself, but never got round to it. My bass player has something similar, not sure which model, in Natural. Really easy to play.

How do you find switching between the LP and the Rickie at gigs? Do you have to make many, if any adjustments to the amp?

Yes it is easy to change the speaker. I had a Celestion Gold in for a while and recently put the stock G12K-100 back in. Just a few minutes job. I have also built an open-backed speaker from a kit by Torres amps in the UK. Made a couple of mistakes, but it's not too bad, and for me sounds a lot bett...

I saw that clip having being pointed to it on another place. Never really looked at much of their stuff, however, the clip had some great playing from the chap in shorts. The singer, who I believe has passed away, had a great voice as well. Must check them out sometime.

Nice they did respond.

Still not sure why they haven't taken the time to post a manual for the TT. They have one for the Crush10, which costs a lot less. Perhaps they'll get their act together one day ;)

Played a few times, in the past, at football stadiums with around 5000 people and no butterflies in the stomach. Then go to a pub with around 40 people in and I have almost had st...

I would buy the one that sounds the best for you. Both are going to be good amps.

However, as someone says, if you already have a Mesa, then maybe the Marshall will give you a bit more variety
