Hi guys

I recieved my new 25th Anniversary 2 days ago as most of you probably have seen when i posted pics a few days ago.

Well i also bought a new amp for my rig and it s absolutely fantastic.
Its a Blackstar series one 200 watt head&cab from their brand new range which was only released earlier this year.
I got to see it at LIMS this year i was very impressed.Our own Jamie Humphries is promoting them himself at the moment and has incorporated one into his own rig.
I think he posted demo videos here recently or ye can check them out at the blackstar official website.

Anyways enough of the talking,heres pics of my balls and my new amp.
Dont ask me to give ye a preview of the amp yet as i havent had the time to fiddle around with the channels.All i will say is this covers all bases and has enough gain to play the heaviest of rock&metal and the cleans channels are beautiful also.
Apolgies for the poors pics,i need a new camera:eek:

That's a nice little set-up you've got going on. The Blackstar amps impress me more every time I see/hear them. Top notch gear you've got there!

That's a serious gigging set up Colin, it's been a great week for you . :D

Cheers kev.im over the moon with the 25th but ive been talking for ages now about getting a proper amp for my rig.i was originally intending to get a mesaboogie and was looking at the Mark V but they are very expensive in europe.
Anyway the Blackstars are as good if not better IMHO and way more affordable.The range of tones you can get from this beast are unbelievable.

If its good enough for Jamie Humphries then its good enough for me!:D

Congratulations you lucky F*****G B*****D. That guitar is stunning:eek: and as for the amp been watching some videos on youtube, and really they sound sweet. big range of sounds and tones loads of fun for you now, and now you have to choose which ball you play with, unless you play both of your balls kinda like Micheal Angelo Batio!!!!!!!!!! (google and you will see what i mean)

all the best my friend i know how long you have waited for that dream rig.
next time im down in cork i have to drop by for a jam:cool:
