I have 2 words for you Holy Crap !!!!!!!!!!!(G-rated version!) i picked up my ROCCAFORTE Hi-gain 50 head today from a local guy . man this thing kills , marshall crunch and roar i think roar is the key word . lots of sustain and nasty harmonics just like i wanted . it came loaded with NOS Mullard ecc83's and Mullard el-34's , it is a killer dark green color with chrome logo and front pannel it is marked #8 on the back . not to bore you with all the amps that have come and gone through my house in the last year + . but this is a keeper i know it is a honeymoon period but out of all the killer amps i have had this one was plug and play and just plain awesome out of the gate !!!!!

doug makes a great amp!
he sure does this thing is heavy as hell and the point to point wiring is tight man . it is put together . and the tone is great awesome marshall crunch and it cleans up nice with the volume knob and man is this thing a beast !! i have had many a tube amp but this thing is loud !! i have no clue how you use a 100 watt version . it would cause some damage
