Argh, the Maton’s are on my list for ‘right time / right price’.
Mind you I’ve never even touched one.. but yeah., one day.

Yeah, my Eminar is an Aussie version or perhaps alternative is the better word.
Rotten Kid !
So, tell me... what did you think ?
Coincidentally the Maton is a MGB also.
MGB4.

No... I was using my phone and accidentally clicked both pictures and was too lazy to delete one.
It reminded me of when I raced Go-Karts, sitting so low and the sharpness of the steering. It was a fun little car. And I felt like Austin Powers when I sat in itYeah, my Eminar is an Aussie version or perhaps alternative is the better word.

. Would I trade in my truck for one? No. But I'd drive one again.
@Count Bassie
Have you bought that Coiiseum rig yet Roger?

That was a Magnum? Ovation? Looks awfully like a Jaguar... what did I miss?
Try 37 and a half minutes...
We're talking. I'm going to have to hustle to do it, and sell my SWR Basic Black and Basic 2-Way ext cab (lower power 2×15 stack). I dig the SWR, and what I need is to decide I'm going to really dig the Sunn... but my true confession here is that I want a cool rig that isn't a compilation of stuff I can "afford".
Thing is, I have a couple amps that are very good (370, Trace AH250SMX- and I really love my 370!), but I'm not really properly equipped for cabs. I could hold out for an Acoustic 406...
I'm a little into wanting parts that belong together. Maybe it's just a vanity thing, but I've been playing a long time, and though I've made some stupid decisions, I'm a little tired of coming off like a broke 17 year-old, dragging my scraps to gigs... call me vain, perhaps.
Also I have no experience with the Sunn. Lol, but it looks cool, is my generation, and is allegedly in excellent shape.
So I'll now take the opportunity to ask has anyone here had any experience with that Coliseum 300 and 215 cab?
Lol, right! I got home in the wee hours from seeing an old friend play, went out to breakfast after load-out. Just getting coffee now, got 3 or 4 hours sleep. Brain beginning to warm up.
Hmm... maybe he'll chime in...
I was trying to summon him for you. I played through one as a back line eons ago. Great sounding head with an excellent eq section. But if I’m not mistaken, they love to be run at 2 ohms.
I've been reading up, yes 2 ohms, like my 370. But apparently, like the 370 it'll play nice at 4 ohms too.
Yeah I saw you call him there, thanks Jeff.
Best way for me to go is probably forget the Sunn and find the rest of my ACC rig...
No disagreement there. You’ll be all set with a rig like that.
Yeah. I really dig the 370, might as well finish it! Duh.
I think I'm all set with this... thanks for entertaining my aloud musings/insecurities/internal strivings!
Like Jeff Dunham's "Arguing With Myself"
