that amp's only 100w, if that helps.

Yeah, but it may have been used by Slipknot, Limp Bizkit and Lenny Kravitz. Cheap at the price!

This amp should be selling for closer to $85-100 unless it has an upgraded speaker, which I doubt it does.

My bandmate has one of those amps. I've been using it while my Ampeg gets fixed. Honestly, I thought it was pretty cool initially, but now I'm not too impressed by it. If you turn the volume above 2, it gets this really horrible solid state clipping sound. Just not powerful enough. The only time I got it sounding remotely good was when I ran it through an old Fender 1x15 cab, with a Sansamp in the chain, for recording.

Those cabs look awesome though. I'd buy the setup just for them.

An older Ampeg 8x10.

That Peavey looks *exactly* like my TUSC amp. I wonder if they bought the design from him.

Are the two controls on the left for Volume and Slope, then the next two for Distortion and Harmonics, then the next six for EQ?

Yes.

2 kustom PA columns, $250.

Yes.

I don't have a better pic of the TUSC, but...



Maybe after the really breif period that TUSC made amps, Peavey bought the design and maybe even machining for this model? Hrm!

I like the distortion a little, and certainly the EQ section, but I've only really used it as a preamp to drive another amp, like in the picture here where I took the slave amp output and ran it into the instrument input on the Hiwatt. That's the setup I used to overdub the nice shitty-sounding guitar solo double at the end of the Chrome Robes song "End Of The Future".
