Got my Egnater Rebel Head...

[duhvoodooman]

...thanks to tOt! :AOK: :dude: :bravo: :beer: :master:

He spotted one for sale by a guy at The Gear Page and PM'ed me about it. Turned out the guy had just bought it a few days ago to check out, since he couldn't get one locally. Played it and decided it wasn't his style, so it's essentially new. They go for $600 at MF and he was asking $500. And when we discovered we live about 90 miles from each other, he knocked off another $10 for the shipment cost savings. I PayPal'ed it to him and he's shipping it tomorrow!

Thanks for saving me $110, tOt!!

Is that the new 20 watt guy?

 

[Robert]

Congrats. I'm curious to hear what you think of it. I'm also curious to hear the awesome rocking tones you're gonna do up for us.

 

[Blaze]

Good for you DVM , clip time ....

 

[sunvalleylaw]

Congrats DVM! Now you can do tele and Egnater clips!

 

[Jimi75]

Tele + Egnater? That is a smoking DUO!
Congrats on that great deal. I hope you put up some clips soon! This little amph monster is awesome!

[oldguy]

Hey, that's great, Vood!
(I'm not sure about anyone else, but I'd like to hear some clips when you get it.)

 

[tot_Ou_tard]

I'm glad that it worked out. :AOK:


How soon will you get it? We're clip & review hungry.

 

[just strum]

Happy New Toy Day!!!!

You probably listened to the little man and the big man (oh, and got permission)

 

[duhvoodooman]

Assuming he ships UPS today as he said, Monday, I would think.

Happy New Toy Day!!!!

I take it that I'm the "little man".

 

[mrmudcat]

[duhvoodooman]

Is that the new 20 watt guy?

Yes, exactly. With the 1 - 20W power control and continuous blend control between pairs of 6V6 and EL84 output tubes:

Very cool design, and they sound great, both clean & distorted.

 

[duhvoodooman]

Are these china made?? oke:

Yes, I believe so. This and the bigger Tourmaster are Bruce Egnater's first foray into mass-produced/more affordably priced amps. But I understand he's very involved in making sure the quality is first-rate and maintains the Egnater image he's worked hard to establish.

You probably listened to the little man and the big man (oh, and got permission)

No permission involved, since this is an "internally funded" acquisition. Using the proceeds from the sale of my Nashville Tele plus accumulated pedal sales profits from last several months.

 

[Katastrophe]

Congrats, DVM!

Pics? Full review? Clips?

I'm really interested to read your take on it, since you're so electronically inclined and all.

:AOK:

 

[tunghaichuan]

Sweet, :AOK:

Can't wait to hear your thoughts on it.

tung

 

[bigoldron]

Congrats to you DVM! Happy new amph day! (soon) :bravo: :beer:

Tot, remind me to get you involved next time I want some gear! :AOK:

 

[F_BSurfer]

Congrats DVM being only 90 miles away bet temptation to go get it was hard to overcome

I call that "permission recycling" You get initial permission for an item and then you work it into a future purchase using the same initial permission. I think Marnold is in the process or will be in the process of using that concept right now.

With our recycling, we can claim to be a "Green" forum

I tried! I contacted that guy and told him I was very interested but had to finish selling my Nashville Tele, which had 2 days left on the eBay auction at the time. Asked him to give me "first refusal" if he got an offer in the meantime. He got one within a couple of hours, and contacted me to ask if I wanted to buy it right then. I did, but all I wanted was the head, and the offer he got was for both the head and the cab, which he was also selling. So I told him to go ahead and make the deal with the other guy. I didn't feel right about holding him up for a partial sale when he had an offer in hand for the pair.

 

[TS808]

Congrats on the purchase. I'm anxious to hear what you think of the amp too.

 

[tot_Ou_tard]

Congrats to you DVM! Happy new amph day! (soon) :bravo: :beer:

Tot, remind me to get you involved next time I want some gear! :AOK:

What'cho want?

 

[duhvoodooman]

Spoke to my son a few minutes ago, and UPS delivered the Egnater Rebel to my home earlier this afternoon. :dude: :bravo: :rockon:

If I worked for the State of NY, I'D BE PLAYING IT NOW, because state workers get MLKBD off! But instead I'm here at work. :reallymad:

Mysteriously, since talking to my son, the clocks in this place have slowed w-a-a-a-y down. Time is advancing at a snail's pace. It may have stopped completely. I hope it doesn't start running in reverse.... :thwap:
