well, $400 u.s. wont get much, non the less $400 aus. you're probably looking at a s.s. combo bro... i hear you roos get ass raped on american amps like mesa.... i feel bad for you guys....
i feel even sorrier for the idiotic euro dudes that bitch about mesa being so expensive over there, yet better amps like engl and framus go for way cheaper over there anyways  ....
