Got this beauty from @Gassage - a gent to deal with, even arranged for it to come up to Manchester (much appreciated!).

It’s a feckin beast. I must admit that it’s the festive time of year and neighbours are around so I’ve been running it through a Torpedo and some IRs in the main. 

It sounds superb. It has a thump that’s nothing to do with the bass control, but it’s not just that. It’s the clarity. The stupid grin on your face when you select the crunch channel, mode C, bass down, mids up, presence and treble to taste, and hit some open chords. 

What @ICBM called ‘authority’. It’s here!

Very happy man. More to follow.

I give up with DropBox - here's a picture of what I've bought...

Excellent aquisition!

@Kalimna - many thanks, absolutely buzzing with this one.

Can confirm it is loud, like old-school Marshall WMD loud

if memory serves, it's a 200W speaker in the combo? I also found the clean channel to be particularly good, and the more modern high-gain not quite as JCM-ish as the marketing blurb suggested, but still wonderfully doing it's own thing.
