Best NOS tube amp
 

Hey folks,

I want to have your opinion on what's the best vintage sounding tube amp on the market these days.

I have an all Aguilar rig that sounds great but can't cope the vintage tube vibe that I miss on certain gigs.

So I'm looking for something to pair with my two DB 210 that can give the vintage rock tone.

Took a brief look at the Fender 100T but haven't tried it out yet.

Any other good choices?

Thanks and happy holidays!!!

Get the 100T

Easy answer - V4B.

V4B is coming back!

Do you know if it is going to be part of the Heritage line - or more affordable..?

I don't want to spoil the surprise, but from what I've been told, it's going to be a little bit of both ;)

Sounds exciting!

I think you mean Best Reissue tube amp. "Best NOS tube amp" would be finding a never used 1972 V4B or other vintage piece in its original factory packaging sitting in a warehouse somewhere.

"NOS" means New Old Stock.

Any idea on when it's gonna hit the street?

You're right. I meant something new, based on vintage product.

I thought NOS meant New thing based on Old Stock. Lol

No idea whatsoever, bro.

why wait, get a new Fender.
You will never look back

The comeback of a 100W tube Ampeg is great news.

Matamp. Place still runs in the old way. Dudes (and a dudette) wiring amps by hand, same people that answer the phone when you call etc.

For my money, I'd go Reeves...

Don't overlook the Traynor YBA300!

The new Mesa amps will be hitting the street any second- or by 2017.

Well!
 

The Reeves is utterly splendid but I am also rather impressed with Taystee's Custom Matamp 200.

Same mil spec hand wired quality but its made in Yorkshire Lad!
Smooth as John Smiths bitter t' amp is, thou knows!.:D

I'm sure Reeves amps are worth every penny. But the price is quite steep for me right now.

Righto
 

Traynor is your best bet then, I should think its best value for money where you are anyway.:bassist:
