Been endangered for some time. I just saw an old bandmate put all his gear up for sale. He's been active 40 years but i guess covid has done him in with the band scene.Shouldn't they at least be put on some escalating scale of endangered species before going extinct? I'd like to think with the right kind of conservation effort our community can keep them going at least until tube manufacturing totally dies...
Where is this "land of gigs" you speak of ?LMFAO no
My gigging rig is a 100w half stack plus a rack

yes it is a thing of the past. Send me all of them, and I wil...dispose of them
Ive seen the writing on the wall since 2005.
What say ye ?
I used to rock a 100 watter with a 4x12 when I played live. You know, when there was live music still. All jokes aside, the 100 watter is iconic and not going anywhere and I generally prefer 100 watt power sections when I track. Probably all bullshit in my head but thats why they will keep selling anyway.
100%. I definitely think the low end response is different. I only have one 50 watter now that I think about it. I think the 100 watt amp is too iconic to get rid of, even if the demand is less than before. Demand for 2203x is high--even on the used market.There is definitely a difference in low end response, at least to my ears.
But I play music where that low end response is key, so YMMV
Absolutely. I'd keep it - value on those is just gonna keep going up.100%. I definitely think the low end response is different. I only have one 50 watter now that I think about it.
