She does actually although I think it was more her clothing choice, my mum only saw her from the car when I was getting picked up to go to the dentist.

Woot!

Also, my mum saw me with my girlfriend today and described her as 'colourful'...

Good good, better to get a 300$ amp now than a 100$ one and ending up getting the 300$ one six months later. It depends on what you want to play though, a modelling amp is great for a range of stuff.



My friend uses one of these (the 15 watt model) for practice and it sounds pretty good with a great range of effects, not sure on pricing here or in NZ though.

Well, I did say "one of" the lowest moments. Titanic is a good contender, yeah 

Henry's sig is true. :(
