Hybrid Maple/Black Limba cupped V7 Build Tour Impressions
"so what" is a good one, one of my go-to's i think the M7 has a bit more on the high end than the ypsilon and some of the others, without being too harsh there's some great tube amps out there for not too much money i'm using a little dot Mk3 with mullard preamp tubes, sounds amazing- Arty McGhee
