My two favs are the Tourmaster and the Acoustic. The Tourmaster I have running on a mix of Ruby/Sovtek/JJ tubes in the preamp/contour/loop/reverb sections, with a 12AT7 in the PI slot, and a set of 7581A's in the power section. It's the "Mystique" of the gang, being able to emulate a variety of different amps/tones.

The Acoustic is a new addition. It's fresh off the bench. It has the warmest clean I've ever heard. Think, a nice warm blanky, a hot cup of cocoa, and a roaring fireplace on a cold winter's day. Just that spectacular. The drive channel is wonderful as well, not overwhelming, just the right amount of growl and bite that fades into great feedback sustain at moderate volume. I believe they were trying to give Mesa a hard time, but unfortunately, they went under soon thereafter. Not the easiest of amps to work on, but I did manage to come up with a nice retrofit board for the now unobtainium Vactrols used for the channel switching. If you happen upon one cheap, jump on it quick. You won't regret it. A true "desert island" amp. If the island had power that is.

Nice! you always have the best projects! I got my Sundown that way, another insane sleeper amp price wise.

Scored some pretty sweet deals the last couple of days:


Got the 100w Laney Klipp in a straight up trade for my Sunn Coliseum and paid 50 euros for the HH Electronics IC-100 + the 4x12" cab. Have yet to open up the cab to check what speakers are inside. Anyway, pretty happy with how this all played out!

My 6505+ I bought modded from a combo. Not bad for 100$!

that's a great deal dude,
is it 50 watts?

your cat looks like my cat

60w, It's the same exact amp as a "regular" 6505 only Runs at half power basically.

The cat is essential for good toanz

Been using this OR50 for about a year. No loop, no 2nd channel, no verb. Rules

Might have to let it go already. Broke a tooth falling to my face off my bicycle and getting it fixed is going to cost me a shit ton of money (even more then I'd get selling the Klipp)

dude, you don't need all your teeth,

what does dental work cost in belgium anyway?
