I had no idea Seymour Duncan ever made amps! Looks kinda rough though!

Re: Check this out!!!!

I almost bought one of those many years ago. Played one at an "audition from hell" one time, it sounded great. I remember Vinnie Zumo used on on tour with Joe Jackson in the 80's - the Big World tour. I also remember seeing Rick Derringer using one at the Chestnut Cabaret in Philadelphia, backing up some model-turned-piano-singer-songwriter babe. Can't remember her name, but I never forget an amp. :smack:

And... I just saw one of those for sale here in Houston at my local GC. It's kind of a weird find at a GC - it's just the amp chassis, with no cab. Not a haed, just the bare chassis out of its box. I think it was the single-channel version, don't remember the price.

Anyway, they were great amps. Extremely flexible, but I'm not sure how reliable they were with all those little plug-in modules.

If that's one of the Convertibles (can't view the auction), I've only seen one or two around in the past 20 years or so. But I do remember the ad in all the guitar magazines with Seymour and Jeff Beck playing while sitting on a yellow hot rod.

Why were they discontinued. From what I read in the site they seem to have been discontinued for some years and I've always wondered why.

Re: Check this out!!!!

They really are pretty good amps, lots of people had problems with the reliablity and I have heard thats why Duncan stopped making them...that one looked like hell. I want one, Im just waiting for a nice clean one with several modules.
