Nice old Music Man amp—solidstate preamp with tube power?

What's beside it?

Yup, it's a great sounding amp, the lows are wonderful and the reverb and tremolo sound great as well. Next to it is a esp ltd, I need to fix one of the pickups on that and the amp is an epiphone triggerman 60 dsp. For the price it's a great little solid state amp.

I'm a very anti-pedal guy, I like my amps to produce it all but I finally relented and tried a Carl Martin Plexitone....




Plugged it into the clean channel of my all tube Laney and... OH MY FUCKING GOD!!!

2 Channels, bypass and 20 decibel boost.

Fuck me! I'm in love with it!

I tried one of those. There is some appeal, but its also swampy like Bolan's guitar tone which only really works on that style of swampy fuzzed rock, which I dig listening to, but not really what I dig playing.

Yeah, I know what you mean.

That's kind of why I'd rather have a big amp collection than a big guitar collection. They are more unique (sound wise) than guitars to me, so kind of one-trick ponies for better or for worse. Makes them interesting but more limited in versatility.

Have you seen or played a Vero amp? My photobuckets having issues.

They nailed a style: http://www.veroamps.com/

...and a pricepoint. A cool $8 gs.

Fuck that. Besides, I prefer point to point wiring over printed circuit boards.

Totally agree- was laughing at the 8000 bucks. Best/most versatile amp I've owned (3) is the Peavey Roadmaster (vintage tube series). 160watts tube, but adjustable at lower volumes with all the different settings. Still available on the cheap...and stand by them. Hell you can blow half up and lose half the tubes and it still goes for a year +. Then you magically find the 100# head in a pawn for 100 bucks. Mine left on Craigslist to one dude who swooped them all up.
