You can always add more! :D

I really like the sounds of the Panama and the EVH...what I want and what I need are two different things ;)
 
Re: Panama Shaman 20 Retro..

Yeah, Panama are making some KILLER amps.. The little Fuego can can crank out pretty impressive MOP Metallica all the way to cleans.. and its about $350. They look very nice with the wood fronts and have like a 5yr warranty.. Been looking at the Shaman too. Im in the same boat. Dont NEED any more amps. Want a BUNCH!! I cant justify the purchase, but I really really want an EVH 50 next..

I love my EVH.. It's a great amp for a lot of styles. I'm just a gear whore, I need that Panama like I need another mouth to feed.. I just honestly love the way they look and sound..
I have a hole in my practice area just begging for a Panama Amp to be stuck there..
My wife however wants a new house so I have had to promise no more Guitars, Amps, Guns or Hunting Trips for the next two years until she gets her dream home..

Re: Panama Shaman 20 Retro..

What the heck is that?? Im alittle rusty on my Korean (or whatever that is written in.) I know you are messing around, but I want the tones of both, not just the looks.. But I appreciate the effort.. Is a cool looking amp tho!
 
Re: Panama Shaman 20 Retro..

lol yeah, just messing around...it's Chinese...a Mesa mini recto copy like the Shaman (lots of them around now).

...and they sound great too. Looks like they (DURAND) really liked the EVH 50's aesthetics and decided to throw those in as well :laugh2:

It's like my little Goldea (pretty sure it's the same amp that's being sold as the Panama "Fuego") which has both (down-scaled) Engl Savage & H&K Tri-amp "appreciation" going on.. :D

TBH I've seen some pretty cool new Chinese heads around...not just Mesa copies (they have the TA-15 as well) ..they actually seem to be doing some of their own R&D now. Some sound so great they give me GAS..too bad they're so tough to get hold of...



A TA-15 in Orange :laugh2:
