Re: Crate Vintage Club 50 head
If you mean this one...I played with a dude who had one. I played it once and thought it had one of the best clean sounds I've ever played. Didn't mess with the dirt channel so I can't comment on it. I never heard him use it either as he used a Digitech floor unit to generate all distorted tones.

No, it isn't that one, it looks like this:
I found a pretty good offer on one, and it looks great (imo)...but how it sounds, I don't know.

Re: Crate Vintage Club 50 head
Cool amps. I have two freinds that own the combo and have gigged with em for 6 + years with no issue. Always sounds good and both have been extremely reliable with heavy use.]

Re: Crate Vintage Club 50 head
I don't have any personal experience with one, but a friend of mine had one that he used with a marshall 4x12 in an emo/punk band. He got some really good crunch out of it and had one of the best live tones out of any local band i'd seen. Another guitarist was offering $700 for it because he liked it so much. I think it's the best sounding Crate i've ever come across.Gibson Les Paul Studio [DD(b), PG(n)]

Re: Crate Vintage Club 50 head
Seriously, you folks think I should go for it? Would I regret it? Would I be able to get some rock tones out of it?

Re: Crate Vintage Club 50 head
Yes, of course, but you are the experts...And I thought that maybe you would know if it's a good catch for a young dude like me.

If I were in your position, i'd go for it. They can definity get some rock tones, if you need more gain just throw an OD in front of it to hit the amp harder.Gibson Les Paul Studio [DD(b), PG(n)]

Re: Crate Vintage Club 50 head
A local music store had one for sale and I tested guitars through it several times. It's an amazing sounding amp I had to keep looking at that Crate logo and shaking my head, it sounded good clean and distorted!Trainspotter

Re: Crate Vintage Club 50 head
Cool, I'll try and get it for the price I want it for. I hope it'll be possible.

Re: Crate Vintage Club 50 head
I have the 50 watt 2x12 version of it and I ripped the crate (actually just screwed it off, but in a hurry) logo off so that people would judge it by the sound and not by the name. It's a really good amp for the price range and they're right, the clean sound on it is VERY good. I was very happy with mine, and while i don't use it still, it's always there for a backup and I love it.Originally posted by Jakob DylanIt's a little gross to put yourself in every song.
