Did you play it here in SA ? . . . or somewhere else ?

Yup, Played it at coastal music. ? They are really keeping up to date with there equipment, i'm very impressed. Played a BRAND new marshall 40 watt. Great amp.. Marshall is doing some nice stuff. The 40 watt was only R9000.. For an all tube marshall, that isn't bad!

They're the distributors of Marshall Amps in SAfrica...well, they're owned by the distributor...so I guess they'd be first to get stock. ?

I'm going to pop into TOMS Sandton and check the 5 watter out, sounds good on the video reviews, looks great as well.

And they are still actaully made in the UK, and not in some far east country !

That must add to the tone-mojo 8)

That's the one, marshall is offline at the moment. So can't give direct link. It's also pretty versatile. They added some effects onto it which was a little strange. I'm more of a pure valve kinda guy, so the added echo wasn't my cup of tea. But when bypassed, it sound like a marshal.. ? And it ROCKED!

So, how much for the Class5 in SA then ?

I heard it is +/- 350.00 Quid, so what is that ?

R5000.00 ZAR ?
