The 1960 is a vintagey Marshall knockoff. Plexi I think. It ain't the recto or the XXX knockoff.

Re: Bugera 1960

Whilst im not super edge-uh-muh-kaytid on all that is marshall, i have played through quite a few that kicked granny in the bung. Bigger question may or may not be, can you toss 250 for a gamble? idk about resell on bugera, cuz i associate them with beringer, and that's not the path i would like to take.

i'd say, chill, till the next episode, and see what else rolls up. You may find some way better sh!t. Keep skrillin', save, aim high, etc. Haste makes waste.

Re: Bugera 1960

Yea, if that's not your sound, just hold off.

booger-ah = deep troatin' moose nads. You will want finer, in the end. Don't upgrade a circle around yourself. Buy nice, or buy twice. IDFK what amp you even play now, it just occurred to me.

Yup, hold out for the 333 (Peavey XXX) or 6260/6262 (Peavey 6505/6505+) if you're looking for the heavy tones.

Cry once, buy once. Don't continue on wasting money buying and selling gear, constantly getting close to what you want, only to end up spending more time and money than if you would have just bought the real deal from the beginning. I know I'm not buying or "upgrading" any more guitars or amps unless they are the real deal, pieces of gear I actually want. Until then, I have passable gear that I can live with.

The tranny set "looks" impressive. Much better than I expected.
I imagine they got the bugs worked out pretty well these days.
On a side note...how could you pull a chassis...snap 5 pics...and NOT flip it for a few gut-shots.?
good luck
