Pretty sure the reason I keep lifting is so I can still use half stacks, and the reason I use half stacks is so I don’t have to bend over and dial it in

This is literally how Jazz legend Ed Bickert shopped for amps It’s well documented and he would up going with an orange Roland cube 60 from the 80s

Just make or buy a dolly( rectangle plank of strong wood/board and screw a swivel wheel in each corner) so you place the amp on the dolly/cart and wheel it about without doing your back or break the handle off A good amp needs decent speakers and transformers and a solid cabinet build For practice a Champ is still no1❤

Honestly, this isn't too far from the truth

I got my amp when I was 24 and size was a factor for me too Im primarily am acoustic guy, but wanted a decent tube amp that could be used for both recording and performing in a pinch I got a Blues Jr

I need an 80lb amp to play at 5W bedroom levels

When I was 16 I bought two deluxe 85 fenders and a boss digital delay pedal It's easier to carry two amps with one in each hand

I love this store! Friendly, knowledgeable bunch brbrThis is funny but also makes a good point brbrMost guitar buyers are dreamers, not players brbrThey never gig brThey never attend n open jam brThey never go to a geriatric center and play for folks brbrNope! They hide out in their house with an amp big enough to play the Cotton Bowlbrbr The play make- believe and chances are they couldn't strum a dang 12 bar progression without turning the beat around and missing the changes brbrThey mostly need a small amp and a LOT of lessons

Comment from : @Fektthis

Exactly! brI finally got rid of my Dual Rectifier 2x12, I love these 5w tube amps

Nothing wrong with this We all have strength and weaknesses There’s a reason why GK micros were so popular Just play your music

If you’re after some light tones, light amps will deliver you just that But I’ve found the truth that real heavy tones require real heavy amps and cabs
Comment from : @Poly6Groove

Comment from : @JamesVandevanter

Comment from : @giovannilegaspi7566

A bass guitar player pulls up to a gig in his small 2 door vehicle, grabs his carrying bass and opens up his trunk and moves all of his bags and boxes and pulls out his guitar combo amp 🤣🤣🤣
Comment from : @SuAmigoElilegal

That's fair
Comment from : @Dustin_Townsend

When bro discovers mark bass he's gonna switch to 4 strings

Comment from : @Codmpro21

My dad went to get a tube amp but settled on the Yamaha thr 30 A very nice amp but he was a tube snob b4 actually shopping for an amp He was so sure all non tube amps are garbage He wanted a tube amp I get to his place and see his new Yamaha thr 30

Truth
Comment from : @boogieunderground

This is absolutely correct 😁 my days of lugging AC 30s and Marshalls are over lol ! I dont know how i did it for all of those decades ! 🙂👍🇬🇧
Comment from : @Wooburnmusic

NAILED IT!
Comment from : @flyboyu777

Isn’t one of the points of the tone master series that its insanely light? My TM super reverb weighs nothing in comparison to a tube SR
