Smokey Amplifiers

[brentrocks]

I was sifting through my parts cabinet tonight and discovered something that i had misplaced and forgotten about for a long time.....THE SMOKEY!!!!

 

I bought this right after Elizabeth was born so that i could play out in my Laz-y-Boy at night while she was sleeping so that i wouldnt wake her up. I stowed it away some time ago and now i have re-discovered it!

 

It runs off a 9V Batt...it has a 1/4 input jack and a 1/4 EXT SPKR jack. the sound quality, well, i think its pretty good for its size. I think i got this off ebay for like $35? But anyway...it is a really cool lil practice amp when you need to be a little more quiet, or great for traveling! I think the still make them? If i remember right, they make some that look like packs of smokes...

 

Her is a little sound clip....

That was the perfect tone for that Aerosmith song....

 

I remember these, but never had one.

I do have the little Marshall that runs on batteries, it rocks.

I used to have one of these, too. Sounded great through my home made talkbox.

Everybody knows the Marlboro Smokeys have better tone.

These are cool little amps! I actually used one of these on a recording...Plugged in my strat, cranked it and played slide licks.

 

It gave off a cool old-timey blues sound
