Re: divided by 13 amps

There was one at the Houston Amp Fest and I thought it sounded pretty good. But, catch this, the owner of it offered to trade it to me for my Two Rock. (which I promptly declined) That owner sold it within a few weeks and I'm pretty sure ended up buying a Two Rock.

Getting back to your question... they are handmade in California by Fred in limited numbers. They are expensive, very touch sensitive and they sound fantastic. The one that I heard was a 6L6 version. (ERT37?) No master, no reverb (if I remember correctly)

I thought the Two Rock smoked it. For that kind of cash, you need to play a lot of boutique amps to find the right one. I went through several amps trying like hell to get the perfect tone for my ears. I have bought an sold a lot of amps in the last few years until the Two Rock. This is all about my ears and my guitars.

There are probably a huge number of folks that prefer the /13 to the TR though. Gotta play them or buy them from someone with a good return policy.

They are WAY out of my price range, I was just courois about them...on the new Aeromsith CD Brad is using them and he has a pretty cool tone.

I haven't played one, but visited their site to get some info.

the owner began his company as an outgrowth of his repairs at Black Market Music, a well known vintage dealer who's always at the vintage guitar shows

There were a lot of them on stage at the Superbowl halftime show with Paul McCartney. Not sure if they were lipsyning that event, but it wouldn't suprise me at all considering how orchestrated those events are.
