Hey, Guitar Players: I want one

One of these, Cornell Amplifiers. I know I have a Boogie and a Soldano. But I've had this itch. Problem is amps are hard to sneak into your house. Programs, rack effects easy to stash. Guitar amplifiers? NO. See my wife is the perfect musician wife and is very understanding of my need for gear. But why do I need 4 amplifiers. Hard to justify........................................JDW

Which one is that you're lusting after? I'm thinking that the cute little 10 watt "home recording" could be justified. It is, after all, for recording, says so right on the web page! You don't have one of those......

Here's the kicker with the Cornell - the 40 is a 1-12" combo that weighs 70lbs!!! ouch!

Yeah, but it's got that handle on top to make it that much easier for you to foolishly attempt to carry it a couple of blocks and thereby risk ending your guitar playing career altogether.

"a 1-12" combo that weighs 70lbs!!!"

I carried a 4-10 combo from the parking lot to the center of the mall for a big band gig one time. It still hurts to think about it. After that I used a hand truck.

My GOD !!! Your Wife Is Arguing About A Little Tiny AMP That Would Cause Nobody No Harm ???
Thank GOD I'm Not Married

No, more like $2800. When I already have a couple rigs that get plenty of compliments. But crash_3210, you will find you get really good at smuggling. CDs are peice of cake, unless you leave the packing slip around. I just bought Performance Loops (Drum loops). Man they sound good and so easy to work with. Things were cool till I left the packing slip om the counter (in haste to try them out). She just looked at me and said "you paid $300 for 2 CDs of some guy banging on drums". I said yeah babe, but don't they sound great. She shook her head and was good with it, because I was happy. But $2800 will be harder to make go over. But I'm scheming...............................JDW

Thanks, johndale, now I have GAS !

That amp looks a lot like the Carvin Belair or Nomad

Have you played through this thing ?
Is it the cool-looking tweedish ( is that a word?) covering?
Is it the class A wiring ?
The site wont let me see these amps ( thank goodness )
I have 3 tube amps already ! Would be hard to sneak into the house
Do what I do; the weekend before ...plan
A very special evening/weekend - dinner movie flowers etc
then try the buy the following week
Worked for me for my 335 ! ( but that used up my guitar-a-year thing)

Have you played through this thing ?

No but Clapton use's one and I like his tone. A buddy of mine I grew up playing with in VA., got one a couple months ago. Swears it is the best thing since pussy.

Is it the cool-looking tweedish ( is that a word?) covering?
Is it the class A wiring ?

Yes, all hand done (the twead) and it is point to point Cathode Bias.

The site wont let me see these amps ( thank goodness )

They are a feast to the senses. You know if Clapton use's one. It must have a lot of beauty. Clapton, I REPEAT is not God, but he has a nice tone (most of the time)

I can be had at a reasonable price.

You whore HH..........................JDW

I get along better with fine musical gear than I do with women

Hmmm, have anything to do with the "off" switch?
