Just curious how many of you are putting your amps on stages and rehearsals regularly (compared to those who keep them almost entirely in their practice rooms.) Nothing wrong with the practice room scenario, but arguably an amp doesn't have to be terribly durable to survive that scenario... I'm just curious about who is really putting their Egnater through some "real" paces.

I've used my Renegade multiple times in live situations over the past 3 years, both for church worship and for live tailgate scenarios. Nothing terribly demanding, but I can tell you I love the removable casters! :rock: Am putting a band together now and I'm anticipating future rehearsals and gigs with it as well.
 
I used my M4's and MOD50's live for two years. Great dependability! :thumbsup:
 
My Mod50 comes with me to practise once a week and gigs approx. twice a month - all at better that 50% on the master - thus far it's been bullet proof, which is more that I can say for the drummer :)
 
Ive gig with my renegade 4 times and plus rehearsal 1's a week for 5 months rock solid so far ;)
 
I have been gigging with a renegade head and tourmaster 212x since August 2009. Some times up to 3 gigs a weekend sometimes just a couple a gigs a month. I have also have a renegade 112 combo. I bought used last October. Both amps have had the "output boards" replaced. At least that was on my receipt from the shop that did the repairs.

I love the tone and features of the Renegade. Even though both amps have had problems...hopefully I won't have any more!
 
Was using my Rebel 20 every Sunday at church (usually 45 minutes of praise and worship) for about 9 months out of the past 10 (just bought a Lonestar Special that receives most of the work now). I left it set up and used it for practice each week also. Probably putting in 3-4 hours a week. It needs a retube currently as the tone seems to be suffering, but nothing unusual. I would say it has been outstanding!
 
I gig 3-5 times a month with two different bands using my Rebel 30 mini stack. It's got everything I need tone and volume wise without requiring a back brace and/or an SUV! I have a wah, boost and overdrive out front, and a Line 6 M9 running in the fx loop. Finally happy with my gear! For now....lol

I need to update my sig pic. That is an OLD pedalboard picture...
 
I use my rebel 30 head out 3-5 times a month- plus alot in my home studio. I run through an avatar 2x12 . Flashback x4- jacques meistersinger chorus-timmy, mi audio blues pro. Never a problem.
 
I've had mine out and about a lot since buying last year. I'll admit, I'm terrified of something going wrong. I'd not have a clue what to do and live seventy miles from where I bought it.
 
It's always smart for a gigging player to have some sort of backup with them. I carry a PV 112 with me just in case. No problems yet though.

Yo - similar with my Rebel 30 head with 2x12 closed cab :rock:



 
I would guess I have done 30 shows in 2 years or so with my Tourmaster. It comes out to a little over 1 per month plus practicing at band volume once a week. The amp has even fallen off the cabinet twice and it still works! The only issue I have had was a volume drop that ended up mysterisouly going away after about a month.
 
I have a Vengeance and a Tourmaster 2x12 in which I kept one Elite 80 in it and switched the other out for the Celectiion 75's. I needed this for a tighter lower end for my hard rock band since we're down a full step and from there, a drop D. I use it all the time for practice and gigs. So, this year, it's gigged around 20 something times (on the road). Since I've had it, it's probably gigged close to 100 times. Sounds great. I also have the Tourmaster 4212 and it's gigged a ton of times; especially before I got the Vengeance. Now, my Tourmaster is used for my cover band. It's way more versatile, though a tank to move. I'm thinking about getting a small Egnater rig (or Bogner Alchemist) for practices.

They are both built like tanks. I still need a case for my Tourmaster, I have one for my Vengeance. I need a case for my cab too, as it's getting a bit torn up.

I gig with my Mod50 all the time, in a variety of settings - classic rock cover band, modern rock cover band, and church band. I got it in 2007 and play out with it 2-3 times per month. I've had very few issues...the most serious one was that my COD module crapped out, but Bruce fixed it immediately. Aside from that, just tube replacements. I took it to Lord Valve - renowned amp tech here in Denver, for some new TAD 6L6's and a bias job a month ago, and it was restored to its full orgasmic glory. I adore this amp, can't imagine ever parting with it.
 
I gigged regularly w my Rebel 30 head & TM212 cab for almost 3 yrs, until I got my Renegade head. Now, if I'm playing a small place, I'll just use the Rebel w a 112 cab. Have never had a problem with either. Both great amps.
