Kuz Posted June 10, 2011 Share Posted June 10, 2011 I LOVE the Masterbuilt Strat that I traded my Matchless SC-30 towards, BUT...... I REALLY miss that amp. If I would have traded the Matchless for different guitar, I might have never been able to live with it. Someday, I will re-aquire a Matchless SC-30 or DC-30. Yes, I will.

nachogrande Posted June 11, 2011 Author Share Posted June 11, 2011 Steiner, I love her more than my wife, if this is the answer you're looking for Since it was bought as a brand new amp, the tone gets better and better every day. Kuz, This Avalon sounds enchanted, I can't imagine how would SC-30 or DC-30 chimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nachogrande Posted June 11, 2011 Author Share Posted June 11, 2011 Oh and by the way, this amp is the reason why I'm trading my beloved Roccaforte head. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest HRB853370 Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 That is one handsome amp head! Would you trade it for some Bosphorous cymbals (hand made in your country)?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squawken Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Is the Matchless along the same lines as the Bad Cat? I believe Sampson worked at both along the way. Does it have a 1/2 power switch to 15 watts? By the way-very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeffB Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Cool looking amp. I would love to have access to more stuff like that. Glad you are still having tonal bliss with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way-very nice. Yes. Sampson co-founded Matchless. I believe there was a falling out of the partnership and he founded Bad Cat. He has left there as well. I heard he is a hard person to work with. And yes there is a 1/2 power switch (at least there was on my Matchless SC-30). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koula901 Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 It would be great to hear a clip of it... if that is possible. .... X2 - and Congrats, I'll bet it sounds great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nachogrande Posted June 11, 2011 Author Share Posted June 11, 2011 Thank you fellas Yes, it has half power swtich 15/30 and low/hi inputs as well. Sampson used to work with Matchless and Bad Cat. I heard that he founded a new brand called Star Amplification (I checked the website now and it seems blown up lol) skinslammer: Nooo, I won't ... I'm glad you have those cymbals. They make pretty amazing stuff here. Also there are some other great brands such as Istanbul and Zildjian (But Zildjian manifactures in the USA) The best thing about this amp is, even you plug a single coil or P90 installed guitar, there is no hum, buzz or anything. You wouldn't say the amp is operating, if you don't see the glowing Matchless logo on it. It's my humble experience of course. EDIT: Yes, I will share some clips soon.

schundog Posted June 11, 2011 Share Posted June 11, 2011 Sweet Amp! I love the Matchless tones on my multi-effects pedals, but unfortunately, that's probably as close as I'm ever going to get... Enjoy it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
