I need a 240v to 120v unit to use with a UK amp

Well the title outlines what I need! GoRedWings19 has graceously agreed to lend me his EMP Anniversary but it is 240V. I went to Ratshack er...The Source as it is now called and picked up the only unit they had which was a 40W max version and sadly was only 2 pronged. So I returned it today.

CAn anyone point me to a site that may have what I am looking for and that is a good and safe place to purchase from?

Thanks!

AWESOME!

I dropped nearly $70 on the Ratshack thing and it was a bust...for 14 bucks I can get what I need from these guys. Very excellent. You will have to come by once I get this transformer. The amp arrived yesterday

You may also need a UK adapter plug. Their FAQ is pretty good at explaining what power and plugs you need.
