Re: [Harp-L] Low cost tube amp from Crate

[BiscuitBoy714@xxxxxxx]

I looked at the  Crate amps on the Sam Ash site and my mouth was dropped the 
whole time. It's  about time that a reputable amp maker came out with low 
priced tube amps. I'd  say they aren't perfect but if you are on an extreme budget 
like me it's better  than nothing. Now if I could trade my Pierce G1 amp for 
a tube amp, or sell it  for enough to buy that 33 watt Crate one I'd be set. 
Any jazz players looking  for a Pierce head????

How technically savvy you are has nothing  to do with how the thing sounds.  
If it makes a sound that inspires you,  it's a good amp.

I've always liked Crate tube amps, and at that price I  agree that it's great 
value for money.

On the one hand, I'm really glad  that I have all the gear I need.  On the 
other hand, it's a drag not to  be able to run out and buy all this cool stuff 
that's coming on the market  right now at great prices, because I already have 
all the gear I  need.
