I picked this up from the black Friday sale from Sweetwater for $600($500 off regular price). It seems like a good little amp so far. It's got a pair of 6v6 and a pair of EL84 power tubes and I can choose either set independently or I can blend the two sets in many different ways. I can also set each channel (clean, overdrive) to anywhere from 1-30 watts for different amounts of headroom and different playing responses. Clean channel has volume,bass, treble pots and the overdrive channel has volume,gain,3band EQ And each channel has reverb with spillover (whatever that is) and a tight and bright switch for each channel. Along with the tube mix knob and the wattage knob for each channel yields alot of different tones. The clean channel sounds very good and the overdrive channel isn't bad either. It has plenty of gain on tap for my needs. Effects loop, 2 speaker jacks with impedance switch and it came with a 2 button footswitch for channel and reverb switching. It came with decent tubes in it. I can see Ruby labeled Sovtek EL84's and a pair of Electro Harmonix 6V6's from the back and the 5 preamp tubes that are all covered but I was expecting JJ or GT tubes. It sounds pretty good so far. The distortion is kind of transparent If that makes sense at lower levels but does get dirty when you turn it up. Still finding sounds in this amp. Having lots of fun so far. Does anyone know what kind of preamp tubes are in this amp? This is the mark 2 version of this amp. Also came with a carrying case. Excellent deal for $600!

While I have never owned an Eganter I have played through a few and know someone who had the Rebel. I forget if his was the 20 or 30. They are great amps, very versatile. Tube mix knob is a really cool feature.

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

I've played the Tweaker lunchbox & the 40 Watt one. They were both pretty sweet. This one seems like even more fun. Congrats on the new head, Enjoy"Less is less, more is more...how can less be more?" ~Yngwie J Malmsteen
