LOL, this thing is a flipping monster & I have absolutely no idea what I'm going to do with it!!! I'm not sure what the hell compelled to take it in the first place since I haven't been in a position where I've needed a vocal amp since, well ever???
That said, it does make a pretty awesome Guitar or Bass amp and it's got a cool tube layout so if I don't find someone to sell it to eventually perhaps I'll see about having it modded into something more useful for my needs? It works perfectly and I just stuck a Bogner La Grange in front of it with the thought process that the La Grange is sorta a Marshall preamp in a box? LOL, to be honest it sounded more like a cranked Marshall than some cranked Marshals I've played!!!
I got it for next to nothing from this crusty old guy in town. He's one of them cheap beer & scratch ticket junkies, plus his wife has been nagging him to get rid of some of the garbage he's got kicking around the house recently. I made an off the wall comment about how it was about the only thing he had that I was even remotely interested in & before I knew it I was carrying the thing out.
He originally wanted around $500 for it & that's about what they are trending for on reverb right now. Unfortunately as I said I didn't really want it but I was being pressured by his wife and him to get it the heck out of the house so I offered him what was in my wallet at the time, $72!!! Oh well, I guess he's got some scratchers & cigarettes now, & I've got yet another piece of gear that I have no room for!!!
LOL, it's a good thing my baby sister didn't major in Art History like I did!!! My poor parents, they were so proud when I went to college... Unfortunately much to my dismay, none of the big art history companies were hiring when I graduated for some reason??? Basically while I was running around eating Ecstasy like Skittles, sleeping with hairy hippie chicks, & talking about how deeply moving some piece of canvas that Andy Warhol peed on was after drinking Mexican beer, she actually studied, got a good job and now has a great big house with great a big basement and lots of storage space for her big brother!!!!
