I'm not so sure this is a bad thing. I'd love it if they could figure out how to drop the price of the Hot Rod 25 a bit.

Which is why many people play electric guitars but very very few of them are actually musicians.

I've had good luck with Shuguang tubes in the past, never considered them cheap or crappy, but the 12AX7s can be a little bright, or at least some of the older gen ones I've used can be.

I know they use the infamous Sovtek 5881's that everybody likes to hate on for the poweramp, but I wonder what they put in the preamp slots.Originally posted by crusty philtrumAnd that's probably because most people with electric guitars seem more interested in their own performance rather than the effect on the listener ... in fact i don't think many people who own electric guitars even give a poop about the effect on a listener.

Re: Avi Elkiss of B-52 amps has bought Soldano.
ha, I don't know anything about B-52 -but how can you have a website that looks as ****ty as B-52? which so many crappy testimonials and horrible pictures
Hopefully they are so concentrated on making quality amps, that they don't have a webmaster.

Originally posted by dystrust View PostGranted I generally find Shuguangs overly bright, harsh and fizzy, but they were something else entirely in the Jet City. That thing sounded like a metal can full of bees with the stock tubes and while I generally don't like JJ ECC83s, they were exactly what the doctor ordered for that amp.
