    I've got one

    I've got a 130HD, with 2 tens. It's a real nice amp. They can
    be found pretty cheap too. I think most have a solid state pre-amp section. Mine has a mastervolume deal so you can get distortion, but the distiortion is horrible compared to modern master volume amps. I've got a silverface twin and I think the Music man holds its own. A real good bargain...

    112 RP combo, 65 watts......bought it new back in the day....weighs a ton, but I love it.......it seems noiser on idle than some Fenders that a friend has....

    I'm getting a Mesa combo 50 watt this week.....the new "F" series......the one I messed with convinced me that for home recording, I would have more control over it......the MM just doesn't have a lotta feel without lotsa volume, but cranked it rules..........gibs

    I had the 60 watt 1-15 guitar combo. It had a grey basket Altech speaker. It was probably the best amp I've ever owned. I have not a clue why I sold it. Just a dumbshit at times I guess.

    Stroker!
