These are up for sale/trade.

Currently listed in Electro Music Doncaster for £995 for the Stiletto.  Footswitch never stomped on, perhaps 50 hours use.  Certainly not more than that.  With covers and leads etc.  Substantially perfect condition.

Andy Timmons is probably the best exponent of these, but he only plays clean with a tube driver for distortion.  The drive sounds are astonishing.

Very good reason for sale, as back problem and therefore NAD (sad reason, good outcome) came in the time AMR (after Music Radar) and BTF.

Stock picture of the Deuce here.   If there is any interest I'll get a set of real pics.

Andy Timmons review here.  Lots more reviews on that page.  One from Quinten Hope here (4:40 ish for heavier tones).


And high gain review (low quality audio) here

Guitarist Choice award winning amp.  Likened to a Lamborghini or Ferrari. 


Can be attenuated to 50 watts, valve or solid state rectification, 3 modes per channel.  It works out at 12 channels, spongy/bold per channel, solid state/valve rec per channel and three modes per channel.  Footswitchable.  Recording out. Very versatile.

Main competitors stated to be
Marshall TSL100 head
Hughes & Kettner Triamp II
Rivera Knucklehead Reverb head
in the Guitarist review.

Trades for nice lighter - the amp + cab combo works out at 110LBs - amps or guitars or high end gear.

Cheers.

Edit: Found a pic on my computer  here

Edit 2 another pic here:  Fits nicely in a lounge environment.

    Not really sure.  I like Cornfords, have the hurricane.  Something more vox-voiced perhaps.  As to guitars, a nice semi-hollow, or a very nice strat thing with a narrow-ish neck.  PRS do it for me.  Gibsons I love, but are a bit heavy.

    WHY?

    I've got a Bogner Mojado 1x12 combo available. Obvious fantastic build quality, nice and light but amazing volume and projection, Plexi type tones, very organic and 3D. Check out some YouTube clips!
    If you were interested then I'd put some cash towards the Stiletto.

  • I saw that.  Just been roving around the web for demos, and it sounds marvellous.  But I have a Cornford Hurricane as a medium wattage machine.

    Had it been six months ago, I'd have probably taken you up on it. Great sounding amp.

  • Any pics of cab? Is it normal or compact ?
    0reaction image LOL 0reaction image Wow! 0reaction image Wisdom · Share on Twitter


  • think it's normal. Doesn't look compact. It has the large decal on the front - like this. Can get pics later today if interested. Let me know as it's in Electro Music Doncaster.

  • Bump.  Trades for nice guitars or amps or very nice FX.

    Guitars - think PRS, Tom Anderson, Suhr, Haar, Ibanez AS or AM100 specially interested in.  Possibly a serious quality acoustic - to replace a modern Martin DX1R, but I'm really not sure if I'd take to acoustics.  Thin-ish necks. Think wide-thin or wide-fat at most.  No pointies, I'm afraid.  Balancing cash either way but don't really want to as I'm looking to get some FX to perfect my rig.

    Amps - lighter than the Mesa, thinks PRS, Possibly redplate, possibly something vox-flavoured.  I'm really sorted for amps with my Studio Pro 35 and Hurricane, but I do like amps, so maybe if it's a special nice thing I'd have a look.

  • Bump.  No trade offers?  Superb British rock tones with gorgeous cleans and infinite headroom.  Very versatile loop.

    Withdrawn - trying out some lighter cab and fx options - gone down from 110LB carry only to possibly 70 on wheels.  Makes sense to me.
