That's what I thought.That's a steal!
A steal on a VP.
Yeah. But it's Ampeg. IMO, a tone that should be in every arsenal.I keep seeing V4s for sale, but I already have the 100W Marshall power amp and I only get a few gigs a year where I can bring that.
Decent price for a used one. Of course being GC, they're calling it new. It would take two minutes to clean off the fingerprints. Yet they don't. Because it's GC.
I do have a PF50T which mostly gets used for recording. I could run it as the preamp for the Marshall, or run each amp into its own cab...Yeah. But it's Ampeg. IMO, a tone that should be in every arsenal.
The Parks Board initially said no, but after much public pressure, they reversed their decision.I'll have to PM you my no brakes storyWorking brakes are for cowards.

It's as new as you're gonna find in a box store.Decent price for a used one. Of course being GC, they're calling it new. It would take two minutes to clean off the fingerprints. Yet they don't. Because it's GC.
And as also told B4, I never bonded with it; shoulda saved the money and used the Kasino instead; sold it as soon as that gig ended.As described B4, the SVT/fridge went on stage for 50 weeks at a time for 2 1/2 years of a 6 nights a week gig. No way I'd've used it for one-niters.

It's all about the setup. I can push my manual clutch pedals in with one hand, with 3000lbs of plate pressureAfter pushing the clutches on various 18 wheelers for 23 years, my left knee says "NO!" to manual transmissions.
I commuted for 10+ years into Silicon Valley with a car that had a 3,000# pressure plate. Cramps were the pain of the day…every day.It's all about the setup. I can push my manual clutch pedals in with one hand, with 3000lbs of plate pressure
All my vehicles are super high torque. Drive it in 3rd….
Of course, once I got it/them moving(usually in 2nd), my left foot was flat on the floor through all the rest of the gears. But in city traffic? Not fun.

With the new epi birds at $850 that's a good deal.
trying to decide if I want the new sparkly birds

This year's Canada Day car show at Langley Speedway is on!The Parks Board initially said no, but after much public pressure, they reversed their decision.
As a bonus for me, I don't need to bring any PA gear. So a 2 amp, 2 cab rig might be fun!
