I intend to try it out on the strads first IF I get it. Some strad users have tried this and said it works. Others (who haven't tried it) will say it is doomed to failure.

Either way I am happy to embark on a journey that will certainly result in my wife kicking my butt...

Howie...if all you wanted was a nice butt-kicking, I am sure you can get specialized services for a few hundred bucks and you can save the remaining $90K

Or maybe just mention your plans to your wife, and you most assuredly will receive that butt-kicking for free and you can save a few hundred $ that way.

Just teasing Howie

Cyril,

Best Post of the Day !

Howie,
waiting to read your impressions on this jewel. This tube amp surely won't enter in my collection unless I get a donation from my billionaire uncle !
My wife will kick me "recto verso" if I buy such a thing !
