There's one on eBay right now for $200AUS, in my city and my friend is thinking about getting it. It looks pretty nice and clean, but what do you think it's worth? I have no idea about guitar heads, hence why I post here all the time about every amp I come across.



It's a solid state right?

*edit: I heard old mate Justin Trosper used one? Although as the Unwound guitar thread says, Unwound had crap gear but got amazing sound.

I have two of these, but with the silver fronts...I believe the one pictured is the 2nd generation of this amp. I paid $75 for one of mine and $100 for the other around 2000, before they were hip....I've since seen them go for up to $350us. They're awesome amps for both bass and guitar.

Yeah, I'm intrigued to see how much it's going to go for. It's pretty nice looking. It sucks the price rise is because of a certain band that shall remain nameless, but like the Sunn O))) brand a little bit too much.

Hopefully my friend gets this amp though.

this is a good amp.

turn it up. waaay up.

so did your friend win it?
I put a bid on it (sorry), but it was a really small one.
moving overseas soon and probably couldn't bring it with me.

it only ended up going for $350...

Yeah, my friend won it. We picked it up on Tuesday night. It's in awesome condition. It's funny, it's about the same size as my Acoustic 470, but waaaay heavier.

it looks great!

So i'm the one that got this amp..

Its extremely loud, on-board distortion sounds ok too.

Oh yeah, im pretty sure that if i put the volume on '3' and flicked that 'boost' switch, i would have no more windows...

i've been told that if you can find the footswitch, you get a lot more gain out of the distortion channel. a friend of mine has it and he seems to get more crunch than i do.

Cool. I got a foot switch with it but haven't really used it yet.

I'll give it a shot, thanks.
