Hi Ed,

Not gigging tonight?

Thanks for the info.
How much do these things sell for? I know they're somewhat more
expensive than the Pro3T. How does the bass simulation compare with
other products, the Pro3T has a Low Pro available so does it lack a
little in the emulation from the bass side of things or are you
totally happy with everything?

Regards, Thomas.
