Im after a new seat box. At the mo im looking at the X6 (preston). Does any one (gem ;)) know of any good deals about on this box
[center]OR[/center]

can recomend a decent hard wearing seat box that will take the weight of a fat barsteward sitting on it.

Im not after turning this thread into slagging various companies/ boxes off but am after some honest and truthfull advice and recomendations.

thanks

I know what Mugger will give the thumbs or for Me ;)

As for me, I've had a Brilo for 20 years - still going strong, only thing I've had to replace was the strap last year - that's gotta say summat for testimony of the build quality.

And before you ask......I aint renowned for cleaning down my kit etc............and non of the drawers have ever had a splash of varnish, or ronseal etc off me in all that time

But ya pays your money, ya takes your choice........one mans meat is another mans poison

Think you mean LaLa :D

My recommendation would be a secondhand tournament pro which is a boss modulator but blue. Look on ebay there has been a load of mint condition second hand ones.

Mine is in to it 7th year now and still going strong.

There are a few on ebay...

josh thanks for the offer but im after a brand new one. My daughter will have my on box so im after a replacement.
Half of the reason ive looked at the X6 is because my on box trolley and all the attatchments off my on box will fit the X3 and X6. The reason i asked if any one knows of any deals on the X6 is because Allen's in leamore are doing the X3 with 30 quid of rig winders so woundered if anywere was doing offers/ deals on the X6.
