Sign in to disble this ad
Has anyone ever compiled a list of all tube amps that are out there?
I mean, im not talking about EVERY tube amp ever...but is there any type of compilation or extensive list of tube amps that are/were available? |

I'm a somewhat a tube-head, but at least I haven't seen such a list.
A list like that would be pretty easy to put together though, a simple internet search would probably cover about 85% the said list.
If You don't mind me asking, why?
Regards

Made in South Aus. iirc 'WOOGIE' made a 3 or 400w valve beast.
All the others were '70's jobs- Vase, Eminar, Wasp, Holden.

It actually was the predecessor to the 1000s series, and was jammed into the smaller 24" boxes, instead of the larger 30" boxes. I believe the 400w designation is the power it consumes? But definitely not the output power.
