What's the horn like?

The horn adds clarity on even wooly Muff sludge. On cleaner stuff it's loud and punchy and makes the cab sound louder than it is. I tried it briefly with bass guitar and the horn adds quite a lot of nasal mids so I'd probably disconnect it if using it for bass. I only had a horned cab once before like 20 years ago (a vintage Vox thing) and that one was shrill and annoying.

Sick cab man! Just acquired a Peavey F800G and trying to hunt down that exact cab. Nice score.

How are you liking the Quilter?

I read a lot of good things about the Quilter 101 from some of the guys on the surf rock message board I post on. Especially with a Jag. What kind of speaker are you using in that cab?

it's early days and i haven't been able to go past apartment volume yet, so hard to say really. i will do a proper write-up at some point in time once i've tested it properly (moved interstate and don't really have anywhere to play/anyone to play with yet, yada yada).
so far it seems to sit almost in between SS and tube sound, very 'full-range' but you can still get quite a lot of breakup with the gain knob that isn't like shitty squarewave SS distortion.
it's definitely gonna be hella loud, normal bedroom volume is like 4w output with the gain at 1-2 at most. i have no doubt it will be loud enough for playing with most bands or smaller shows at minimum, which nobody seems to refute from the reviews i'd read before buying it. weighs NOTHING, picking it up you'd be surprised there was anything inside, it's nuts. it's very sturdy and well finished, too.

the cab is just a bugera 112TS, which uses their 80w 'turbosound' speaker or whatever that is. i'm not really sure what i think of it yet. it's brand new and i haven't been able to crank it so i can't really make a proper judgement.
i'm hoping to change it for a neo speaker so i can reduce the weight, like a G12 century vintage or a deltalite ii or something, but we'll see. the cab is gonna get an overhaul eventually but i'll need tools and money so it'll be a while.

OH LAWD IS DAT SUM HH IC100

new amp day. acoustic 136 15" ported combo. channel one is essentially a 150 bass preamp, and then channel two has been modded to 370 preamp spec with the bright engaged. a switch has also been added to the front panel that lets you play both channels combined from the channel one inputs. picked it up as a platform for an incoming moog mother because i wanted something more full spectrum and wasnt trying to go studio monitor route. as some of yall already know tho, this thing is killer on guitar or bass. that sick vintage grind when cranked up, and takes pedals like a champion. responds very much like a tube amp vs my other solid state stuff. for $180 im very content.
