Tired out a neat little amp

Post by northern_dirt » Thu Jul 17, 2008 7:08 pm

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..

My old BF had a Reverberocket that was a thing of beauty.  Congrats!!!

How about you pick up the Ampeg BEFORE getting rid of the blues jr and the other Steven and I STORM your joint and loot you for both...?!?






Maybe...?

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

Best looking little amp ever? Even if it sounded shit i'd still be drawn to it because its so damn handsome :D

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
