Gretsch G5222 Electromatic Compact Amp

Have you seen that one?

It seems quite the same to the Champion 600. Although I rather prefer the styling on this one, over the Fender.

Does anybody know if Gretsch actually made such an amp in the old days? (like Fender did with the Champ)

Tragically cool Abraxas.

I love all these 5 watt tube amps on the market.

Hey VOX! Get your butt in gear!

How about a Laney (http://www.laney.co.uk/show_prod.php?prod=l5t-112)? I think they've overdone the features though.

I recorded my first demo about 30 years ago through a Vox AC4 that belonged to our bass player. Time for a reissue, maybe?

For a grand, you should get a few more features.......:confused:

No no no... the more you pay for a amp, the less features you get.

The LANEY is tres expensive. The Gretsch will be about $195.00, which puts in right in there with the Crate, Epi, Peavey tube amps. In fact in will directly go against the Epi as it only has one knob!!
