GT "Retro" - Tone

feeds@yuku.com (PlexiTim) — Sat, 19 Dec 2009 20:59:55 GMT

Does anyone out there have one of the current "GT Retro" amps?

Looking for either sound clips, or a specific description of what these nasty little puppies sound like.

Not so much "sounds great"..... rather get actual blow by blow description of clean, cranked and overall
characteristics. Volume level at which breakup occurs, sounds doom vs clean-and-punchy vs midrange-woody or something
in between etc.

I am in the US of A so doing a...

Green Matamp 2x15 (12 months Old) For Sale

feeds@yuku.com (CONANDOOM) — Thu, 17 Dec 2009 21:10:35 GMT

I am looking to replace this with a 4x12.

12 month old Green Matamp 2x15 with black grill cloth. Not many pics yet (it is in my storage space). We plan on gigging next year and I don't want this to get badly damaged and devalued so I am going to try and sell it now. It hasn't been gigged and hasn't been smashed around, it's been very well looked after and is currently in our band storage space (clean and dry).

Speakers are 2x400 watt celestions.

Feeler: Matamp 4x 12"

feeds@yuku.com (horsehead) — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 16:52:23 GMT

OK so the 4 x 12" is lovely, but a bit much for my short frame. It's an A1 matamp with picture frame front in white with pepper grill. It currently contains 2 x V30's & 2 x G12T's. admittedly has got a couple of nicks in it & there is marks on the top from the feet of the amp heads, but is A1 apart from that. I'm wondering if anyone wants to do a swop for a 2 x 12" with a little money or something...

Need info for GT 200

feeds@yuku.com (rOm) — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 15:35:00 GMT

Hi (first post here)!

I'm feeling GAS :-) ...I'm interessted in the GT 200 Bass amp.

What is your experience regarding the volume and overdrive level?

I'm a little afraid that this amp could have too much clean headroom for me.

I'm searching for an overdriven sound, atm mainly for volume-range for band rehearsals - and small gigs (rock music).

I read here that it's possible to customize / tweak the amp for less headroom by...

Trying to find info

feeds@yuku.com (Pigspleen) — Mon, 14 Dec 2009 21:42:59 GMT

Hi.
I'm new to matamp and was tipped off by a friend from the UK. I have never played anything from matamp so this post is more or less a try to gather more info.

I want a really clean amp, either a combo or a head + 1x12" cab. I use a fender strat with more treble and bass than mid.

I've got a yt clip of what I'm looking for...(see url below) and ofc I know that alot of the sound is in his playing and the relic guitar, but are there any version of...

Matamp First Lady head and 1x12 cab + C7 attenuator and Roqsolid covers SOLD

feeds@yuku.com (Pete24v) — Mon, 14 Dec 2009 00:15:29 GMT

Have been thinking about this for a few months now, and the amp hasn't been used in that time so off it goes!

It's a standard Dave Green built First Lady that had a service at Matamp by Hayden just over a year ago. New pre-amp valves were fitted at the time. The amp is currently running EL34 and 6V6S (JJ's). I have a few other valves that will go with it, a NEW Mullard EL34 and an OLD Mullard EL34, and a JJ KT88. As the title says, a C7 attenuator is present, as are...

Gibson Trini Lopez Re-issue for sale

feeds@yuku.com (shugz) — Sun, 13 Dec 2009 14:10:42 GMT

Hi Folks,

Again, pre-Xmas clearout time from me and have very reluctantly decided to sell my Trini Lopez re-issue guitar. I got this earlier on this year and I really have enjoyed this guitar I have to say. That said, needs must just now and to be honest, with the lack of a band/ gig just now, it's just too nice a guitar to have not getting used or have that amount of cash tied up in something not being used. I've now got it on Ebay but would rather deal outwith if possible...

King Street Classic FS/Trade

feeds@yuku.com (Tim) — Sun, 13 Dec 2009 13:50:11 GMT

Hi,

Again, I'm trying to offload my King Street Classic Head.

I'm not using at all (had a sale arranged, so sold my Cab, then it fell through = head and no cab), so cannot justify keeping it.

Im open to any offers, trades accepted with kit + cash from either side (a 2x12 combo would be fantastic if possible), so feel free to PM

Will ship at cost within UK only, I've shipped Amps abroad and its always more trouble than its worth.

Want to trade or sell Dr Z Stangray Head

feeds@yuku.com (ChickenGeorge) — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 22:51:25 GMT

I have had my blonde StangRay head for 2 years now an although it's a great amp, I think it's time for a change. Perfect condition, home use only, absolutely awesome tone.

I would love a Matamp 1224 or a Cornford amp, but willing to consider any trades.

To sell, I would be looking or £1,000 ono.

I also have a Matamp 112 pine cab in naural wood finish with Celestion G12H (30w, 8 ohm) and built in power attenuator for sale at £160. Very nice cab with...

Rising Fuzz ~ Creepyfingers Fuzz pedal

feeds@yuku.com (Josoap) — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 17:00:14 GMT

This is a handmade Univox Superfuzz clone, made by Creepyfingers Effects ~ Brad Davis from Fu Manchu.
In A1 condition, true bypass. It features a switch to alternate between a 'scooped' fuzz sound and a fuller fuzz.
The Rising fuzz is the predecessor of the Creepyfingers Harakiri Fuzz, and if you click on the link below and listen to the Harakiri Fuzz clip, you'll hear that it is actually the Rising Fuzz being played.
Looking for £80 (a new Harakiri Fuzz is $250)...

MATAMP LX FOR QUICK SALE - broken - read inside!

feeds@yuku.com (Cambian Dawn) — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 16:08:05 GMT

Ok, I've been trying to find the time to send my LX back to the factory to get it repaired but, alas, it just hasn't been possible and now I'm in a situation where I'm in need of money so I'm selling anything I no longer have a use for.

The amp blew at a rehearsal and I believe it to be an output tranny problem. Either that or it could just be blown valves but I haven't been able to test it!

It's black reptile covering with a silver grill front...

GREEN Matamp GTO w/2x12 Electric Amps cab (Also owned by the Blue Man Group)

feeds@yuku.com (FuzzForFaces) — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 05:07:23 GMT

Coincidentally, this amp was also owned by the Blue Man Group. Kinda funny there's another BMG owned Matamp for sale.
Fully functioning GREEN GTO with a veritcal 2x12 Electric Amps cab (serial number 1).
The head comes with a calzone ATA case (400$ value I think).

This amp had some issues (bad washers on the pots weren't grounding out properly if I remember correctly), but I got it serviced a few months ago by the one and only Bob Dixon. If I can dig them up,...
