Shit luck there. Time to try some of the others in the shop I reckon, chances of three lemons is quite slim.
I hope it didn't go down mid-gig? Same problem again or a different one?Fwopping, you know you want to!

Same problem, footswitch craps out and all volume is lost. I did actually consider that it might be something I was doing wrong with it (aside from buying the fucking thing), so I went to the trouble of replacing all my cables just in case. I never plug it directly into the mains power supply, it connects via an anti surge socket, as does the rest of my gear. Also, I took into consideration the fact that I've been playing through a multitude of valve amps for the past 20 years or so without a problem. I've had three Fender amps in as many weeks, all dead. It ain't me...
Luckily, it lasted for a two hour set last night with no problems (I had a 5150 combo as back up anyway), it's when I plugged in this morning, lasted a further hour then...I'm too angry to say it again...Last edited by SEAN RAF; 05-25-2008, 12:50 PM.

That really sucks because everyone says they sound so good.
Maybe in a year or two they will have worked out all the bugs.Currently at 78 guitars - Paul Reed Smith, Jackson, Robin, Washburn, Carvin, Peavey, U.S. Masters, G&L, Hamer, Godin, BC Rich, Yamaha, Fender, ESP, Kramer, Cort, Ibanez, Aria Pro & Charvel

I'm wondering if the European stock all come from the same batch and if there are some faulty components in that batch, or as I suspect that they're shite.
Well I hope whatever you go for next works for you or I'll have to drive down the M6 and throw pints down your neck.Fwopping, you know you want to!

I personally do not care how it was built as long as it is a good playing/sounding instrument.
Yes, there's a bee in the pudding.
