This is my first build using top shelf components and I could not be more pleased with this quality product. Professionally boxed and well packaged the postage was also amazingly fast. I will be a return customer.

Had this installed for about a yer now. Still functions exactly like i want and puts out some really good tones. The easy installation makes this a no brainer. Yes, it costs a few bucks, but its worth it.
