Greg is a monster player, I met him a few years ago at a guitar clinic. Man has some of the best chops I've ever heard. Definitely one of the most underrated guitar players of today.
With the level of rework you perform on any guitar you have, I'm sure it will be a good instrument in the end. One drawback I can think of for these Chinese imports is low-end electronic components.
I know, but at the time, the amp was way too heavy and too loud for what I was using it for... wish I'd kept it, but it was a big, heavy amp. I didn't like lugging around a 63lb amp.
I've only played a Bassman a few times. I used the SS60 on the Bassman channel exclusively. I sold it to buy a Blues Jr... Hindsight, not the best idea....
