It was an Ampeg Combo.. with built in Tremolo..

Not too sure on the model.. but it was $285 used, and my god was it amazing..

The cleans were INSANE, and the tremolo was FN beautiful.. I dont know what it was though :(

Its not the new JET, cause it has the controls right on the top, not on an angle..

No idea what one is (although i have heard of them before) so naturally i did a little searching to find one.

I am playing my new Dano Baritone through my Ampeg Jet 2 Reissue as I read this. (Actually listening to a loop I just made w/ my Green Line 6 Looper. Playing and typing are still far beyond my present skill-set!) They are fantastic amps. Such great trem and verb!
Retroalicious! :) PJ
