I don't think this one is going to last. The Tonemaster is as small as a Magnatone should get

Love the Vibro Champ in the studio. I use it on small room gigs (mic'd), too.

Speaking of small amps: I bought a mint condition Tone King Gremlin 5 watt (maybe it's really 8 watt?) amp for approx $1100 last summer for recording guitars. Has a 12" speaker & has a built in iron man attenuator - and for my studio situation - I have to use that attenator. It sounds good attenuated...

Hopefully you'll find a used silverface before too long, for not too much $$$. Figure on a speaker upgrade when you get one. The Bronco is the same amp, should you happen to run into one of those. |

I guess I just always think 'vintage' first when it comes to amps. I tend to do bluesy funk and soul these days, so I like the way the VC 'gets out of the way' of the bass and drums. And 8 inch speaker does have its limitations. That can be mitigated some with a larger magnet structure. Better low end management. I did not realize the new VC had a 10" in it. Makes sense for them to 'upgrade' there on the newer model. Good luck on your search! |
