Hi,
yes i've had an 860 for some years now. Used it with an X5, a CX3 and
an XK3. It's really loud and it's small enough to lift in an out of the
car on my own. It doesnt sound as good as my 145 but it is so much more
convenient. I've sort of gotten used to the transistor 'clean' sound it
produces and it still sounds pretty decent with the XK3 overdrive, bit
more harsh than a tube leslie but still so much better than ANY
simulator. Watch out for the original carry handles though, they are
rubbish. Mine are starting crack around the screws and i'll have to
upgrade them to something more durable anytime soon, which is a pity,
because then it's no longer in original condition.
btw: I presume you know how rare these little babies are...?

regards
Dave
