cool but only 50 watts

Most expensive but local

This might be a decent option as well http://www.musicgoroundgreenfield.co...spx?id=1324454

I dunno, he's on here though as "chilllerthanmost", so might be the same there. He told he wanted to follow this thread, but bookmarked it and came back with the typical hundreds of backlogged posts to catch up on.

It requires great fortitude to keep up with this thread. When I first subscribed to one, I put on email notifications. I quickly realized my folly.

The notification sound on my phone sounds like a phaser from starwars... you can imagine how ridiculous that was lol.

There are no words in my limited English to express how impressed I am right now!

Naw, not me. Currently reaching out to Kingsnake. If they're unavailable we'll try contacting Serpent Throne. Also found out my buddy and national booker for Pittsburgh has good ties with the promoter for Kung Fu Necktie, so gonna reach out there as well.

Nice! Didn't realize you had one on the way. Would like to compare sometime, and see how the tone bypass behaves.

Yeah, staying on top of this thread is not for the faint of heart. Obsession comes effortlessly to me, so I have no problem keeping up. Besides, this thread provides very enthusiastic GAS enabling. My wife just shrugs and mumbles "sure, if you've got the money, go for it". Noooo...you need to tell me how cool it is, damn it.

Here's the top. Yeah that'd be fun. The bypass makes it way louder and noticeably more mids. I can't get over what I've been missing. If I still had my bbm I'd probably just chuck it out the window. Oh well gotta head home.

Ahhhh okay, I believe he has the same on there as it seems to ring a bell.

Very interesting

Is this HT the same as the normal RBA500 on harmony central?

There's two different RBA500 models, the ES and the HT. They LOOK really different, the ES looks like all the ES guitar heads, but I think they have pretty similar specs for power and impedance. I think the ES had one more band of EQ or something though, I know there's more knobs. I think the HT series stuff from Randall is just slightly newer and no head cases, I could be wrong about that.

some lucky son of a bitch on SA forums found a Sunn Concert Bass head for $150 in good (internal) condition.

[LOCOPELAND]

SA?

[Josh Pelican]

I think I might be selling my Rat Tail...

[mc_muench]

Sunn Amp?

[Niff]

somethingawful sorry, in the Bass thread. it is an interesting mix, where total nerds decide to start playing bass and ask for tips.

I have successfully convinced him to go with old solid state heads for his step-up from a tiny practice amp for surf rock. I feel victorious, compared to everyone recommending boring micro heads or GK stuff my recommendation wins! haha.

i just downloaded Reno 911 seasons 1 - 6 for some good american humour after work. oh, you crazy cats.
