Oh man, I loves me some Buster... It's like an SVT with more balls and control.

If I lived there, that buster would be soooo gone.

Because I don't, I won't tho. Don't need it, don't want to ship it.
Someone will get an awesome snag on that tho.

The guy with the Mesa surprisingly still has it, looks like its mine.

Nooooo!!!
I tried e-mailing him, no reply yet(I did Wednesday)
I was planning on calling today, but I had no time whatsoever to do so!

Enjoy.

Yeah I emailed him the other day and he had left his phone number in the ad so I called him.

Its a pretty neat deal, I cant use it with a cab till I get replacement speakers for my Mesa but at least this tube amp has a output mute so I dont have to use it with a cab.

What I'd be interested to know if why there is a custom made enclosure for the Buster? Was the original head cab destroyed or did it come out of a combo?

Im going to find out tomorrow, I dont really care as long as it works fine.

Its mine, just picked it up.

It used to be an old Wedge combo but the the guy had a cabinet for it made by a cabinet maker.

It is very bright and clear but it has that tube growl in spades, I didnt get to try it through my 215 but it is super loud through an Ampeg 810.

Excellent score! I have the Buster head and love it.
