Thats mah baybee...in all his glory. Luckily the cat or 'bird' doesn't have to get on with it. Its just my 2 workmates, it's only used in our workshop.

Cheers for the piccies Petercom.

I don't think that big limp of rock beneath him helped IMHO I feel it gave BOBA a chance to think he was 'above his station' especially when connected to Andrews Heils and Steves Lowthers. He got a bit cocky on the soft acoustic stuff but was mullered by the 'Metal-licker' track

I'd like to say it blew Andrew I's Ongaku out of the water but it didn't, OK BUT it won a trophy!!! It really was squidged but Metal-licker though, it went from being an amp to a compressor The night before at the 'evening seminar' NickG and T'other Andrew pretty much explained to me why they build these SE behemoths and sadly listening to BOBA on anything challenging shows up why they have a chokes/TX's/PSU's and other stuff the size of small garages. Though to be fair it did sound cracking through Steve's Lowthers (high sensitivity) and on acoustic stuff through Andrews Heils they even got a round of applause! I was impressed enough to take it to the next step. The good sound must have been Tony's 'Pot-not-in-a-box' which funnily eough cost more than BOBA itself!!!

Cost, valves were £6 from ebay and the RS o/p TX's were £7.75 (plus vat) each.

After a beer last night I've come up with a master plan for BOBA, I'll post it over on the BOBA thread in wee while.
