Cheers Sammy, ma man. Re volume, I usually record on Samsung S5 phone, but I tried recording it on my Lenovo tablet, which is relatively good make. Don't know why volume came out so low, as I was playing loud enough. I'll try play louder if using tablet to record again :)

One of my all time favourite tunes, I kept trying to bump up the volume. Nice mate, well done

Thanks, Sean.Great wee guitar, but like the amp too. Got good bass sound. Thanks for putting on extra long plug lead, good idea, as am not limited to playing near plug socket, or using extension :)
