I have a basically brand new set of the Groove Tubes GE that I received with another amp I bought that the owner did not install.

I’ve been having a thing for Charvels lately.]( TIMMY51 · Dec 15, 2023 at 9:39 PM · Replies 61 I bought a So-Cal about a year ago and like it so much that I thought I’d add a San Dimas. So far so good, I don’t see any flaws, the neck is perfect. Great bang for the buck. I gave $650 for it used in like new condition. Great fun to play I still think I prefer my HH So-Cal a little bit more...

Molly Tuttle comes to mind, other than that I listen to Norse Folk music by bands like Wardruna and Heilung, it really transports me to a place I belong but due to certain...

If it did not sound good I was going to sell it because I don't think I can rely on it for gigging. It sounded extremely good and expressive. Now I want a similar speaker to sound great...
