Idle hands are the devil's tools... I must be crazy because as awesome as this amp has been, I'm curious to try something else.
2007 made in Vietnam. Bought this used in December of '10 and it has seen lots of gigs and has sounded awesome with no issues. Just before I bought it the previous owner took it to Just Audio in Baltimore and had it thoroughly inspected for a clean bill of health. About two months ago a power tube shorted out and Brooks of Big Crunch in Baltimore (in Magpie Studio, has done tech work for Clutch, Wino, etc) fixed it up and got it running again. It has never bothered me that it is MIV, and I think any defect would have reared its head by now as I've put this amp through its paces.
Other than the power tube, have never had a single issue with this thing. Tolex is a little beat up but there is no damage that effects function. 100% working as it should and sounds killer.
UpdateNo longer looking to trade for another amp. I'd like $900 for it. Local deals only, I'm not shipping. I live just south of Baltimore but would be willing to drive.
PS my band's practice space is in Rockville. If you have interest in this I'd let you come out and try it out with my awesome EarCandy cabs
