Shambles, have you heard how hard a kid with a guitar amp can crank it?   Do you remember?

I nearly took the roof off Meopham village Hall when I was about 17 using one 30 watt Geloso and one probably 20 watt Selmer bassist Major - enthusiasts for the sort of music I was disco-ing were coming in from the road 100 yards away and heaven only knows what the neighbours were doing.

Stick to defending the defensible - unamplified music.
