Gibson Guitar Combo Amplifiers

Bought online at Musicians' Friend for $599 as a closeout of newlyt made (2005) amps. I love the way it looks - black with gold trim and grill. The tone is excellent; cleans are very distinct and wamr or crisp, your choice. The overdrive in 6W mode is excellent, but still too loud for naything but the bandstand. The amp loves pedals, too. Bottom-rear mounted controls are difficult to adjust, but then again you can just "set it and forget it" with this amp. you really need of them if you plan on using the amp[s' cleand and OD tones - one setup for clean; the other for OD since switching between the 2 modes would not be possible live on just one amp. Brand new; gorgeous, works perfectly; no noise. I've had my eye on one for a few years, but thoguht they were too expensive. Then MF ran a closeout on them and I save a couple of hundred dollars. I love this amp. This review was originally published on http://www.musicgearreview.com

I bought this amp from a so called friend in 1978 for 600 dollars...who said it sounded good! After a week the valium wore off and I realized how bad this amp really sounded. It didn't take long for me to realize this baby was as bout' as usefull as a screen-door on a submarine. Holy crap this thing sounded better goin' down the stairs at my Grandma's house... evidently she didn't like for her acordian either... aaaa where you listening? How much time have you got? before or after the stairs solid state sucks This review was originally published on http://www.musicgearreview.com
