$99.00 Tube Head? Leave it to Kustom.

Re: $99.00 Tube Head? Leave it to Kustom.


If my amp didn't have a 5w switch already... and I was a big tube amp user, and owned a few cabs, I would probably get one for home use.

For 99$, you can't really go wrong, and I'm 100% sure it will beat 99$ solid state amps left and right. For home use (which it is clearly intended for), it could be a good choice.

Good point. Plus it would be a great starter amp for a kid.

I just pulled the trigger. I have an old Marshall cab loaded with a pair of V30's that I think is going to be perfect for this head.

Great! Tell me how it sounds. I think I might give it a try too.

I had a $150 Class A 5-watter,and it just didn't sound that good to me. (Blackheart Little Giant)

Well, I'm gonna order one. i think this will be a great chance to design and build a pre-amp circuit and install it.

Should be interesting considering the fact that it uses an EL-34. I think most of the real low wattage amps are EL-84 based.

I'll post my impressions after I get it. I think that this might sound bad, but I'm hoping for at least an interesting bad sound I can use.
