ridethatbike Posted August 19, 2016 Posted August 19, 2016 I'm probably stone deaf but I never noticed much by using the efx loop. I'm just a basement fiddler, so maybe it comes into play at stage volumes a bit more?
tulk1 Posted August 22, 2016 Posted August 22, 2016 Since this thread was hijacked , I'm going to take it back... But, I did try MicroPro 8 Mach 2 Guitar Combo Amplifier (200W in a 1x8 combo) The amp sounded great, it was nice to set it up to the verge of breakup, but still be clean when playing lightly. Onboard Reverb and Tremolo also sounded I just played with one of those today. Amazing! If I was actually in the hunt for another amp, that probably would have come home. The 112 sitting next to it was pretty dandy, too.
tulk1 Posted August 22, 2016 Posted August 22, 2016 Ooops. I actually played the small Aviator with the 8" speaker. Thinking hard about that Aviator 112.
DetroitBlues Posted August 24, 2016 Posted August 24, 2016 I just saw on Facebook today, Quilter is now offering the 101 and 201 blocks bass amps...
ElNumero Posted August 24, 2016 Posted August 24, 2016 You got it. The market is starting to get saturated, so he's not taking in as many tube amps and selling Quilters as much, but there are still some. Last I checked he had a MP2 8" there. I almost bought it, but somehow a used one popped up with the footswitch and saved me $400. I'll pay a little extra to shop local, but I can't forkover a 30% premium. Well if he gets a nice Mesa he wants to unload let me know. I still like heavy tube amps. Those little micro amps scare me. For a tiny amp, I would buy a Carr Rambler before anything else if I wanted something little.
DetroitBlues Posted February 17, 2017 Posted February 17, 2017 Still looking for a Quilter, but I have found their used prices, even on discontinued models are close if not the same as if they were new. Amazing resale value....
tulk1 Posted February 17, 2017 Posted February 17, 2017 Not sure I've mentioned I bought an Aviator 8 Gold. Does everything I need it to. It's a great pedal platform. And thru a 212 it sounds huge.
ridethatbike Posted February 24, 2017 Posted February 24, 2017 Yea, I ended up selling my Mach2 and got a Richter 5e3. Back to the tube amps for now. I just couldn't bond with the Mach2 8". I bet that Aviator sounds great thru a cab Tulk!
