The mudflap girl is modeled after the XXX head. I think the cactus is modelled after the Classic series. Its a cool concept, but I want to try it before saying it Rawks..

I wouldn't totally condemn them yet. I wanna hear 'em cranked and with less bends, more playing.

You've got a BBE too? I love mine. Made the biggest tonal difference out of anything I've bought.
