Post by: saturated on January 20, 2024, 08:41:12 PM
I saw this today and tried to leave it alone
went home and watched football
about 1630 called the shop to see if the owner was still there
he was  :P
so I went and offered $40 for it
i own it now  :P

I just finished making a bunch of noise with it.  Im pleased.

I was surprised how loud it can get I had to keep it low.

also maybe its brand new idk but the pots are squeaky clean usually when i drag an old amp home its static city and rice crispies for a while.  all good elsewhere no hiss squeals or hum.

I admit I only bought it because its orange.

 :P

I just finished beating on this amp some more and have to say im pretty impressed.
one thing that freaked me out was how much contrast I can hear from different positions on my 5 way pickup switch (ibanez rg HSH)

the neck pu air norton sounds especially good

and whenever i pause while playing the amp is dead silent even with gain and overdrive cranked

so yeah its a good amp

im not wild about the power switch being on the back but its not a big deal

I like this amp its good stuff
