I only suggested it because you had the vertex 260 on your list which is close to $1900 while one mitra is $1100 so it seemed like another option worth considering, not quite as much power but better spread and color which I think is worth some sacrifice.
Sorry man i have been trying to type with my iphone and i have big fingers and thumbs lol

I don't think you will be adding the GHL Mitras to that list...lots of shimmer but no disco.
