Is A Gorilla Amp Just An Overpriced CRATE?

Discuss.

Your insane man the Gorilla circuit is much closer to the Peavy Rage

[beaubrummels]

Naw. My beer sits way better on the Gorilla.

[Lucius Paisley]

An actual crate? Yes.

[Securb]

Now it is worth twice as much money.

[LLL]

Nothing a Gorilla can do that my CRATE can't...

[NegativeEase]

Man, I gotta tell ya, the Gorilla is sh*t and the Crate is sh*t -but both launched the dreams of a couple hundred thousand kids

So they are beautiful in my eyes.

I have a Rage. It really doesn't do much I really like but it does give me one thing I like so much better than my much more expensive amps.

I had a Crate RG80 back in the (90's?) which had actual Telefunken preamp tubes on the tube side (solid state side was less than useless) and when put it through a Celestion-loaded Randall or Marshall cab sounded like a million dollar record. So I wouldn't compare Crate to Gorilla as I don't think Gorilla ever had Telefunken tubes in them. But the Crate wasn't roadworthy and had some built-in FX that started to fail and couldn't be taken out of the circuit, so to the dumpster it went. I still have those tubes, however.

There is always a magic spot somewhere on the dials.

Every Crate is better than every Gorilla, but both inspired 1000's of kids.

[LLL]

Every Crate is better than every Gorilla,

WAT.

But have you compared schematics?

[LLL]

CRATE is pedestrian gear.

[Mincer]

WAT.

But have you compared schematics?

The Crate has 6 tone cubes, while the Gorilla has 4.
