When vintage sunn heads are so cheap, I find it hard to shell out that much.

Where are these places you find them for sale......i long for a 2000s...i keep trying to get the guy from zoroaster to let go of one of his...that guy hordes like a motherfucker. When they play in atl they bring everything and he'll have like 6 of them on stage....

Show me one and I'll buy it
let me re-phrase that...show me one that isn't a concert bass/lead/ whatever
actually let's change it one more time...if it isn't a 2000s, I'm not interested

Theres a 2000s on ebay right now....and i haaave....$.8 in my bank account! I wonder if hed just give it to me if i promise to be really really fucking loud?

It's a 2000s, I don't think you have a choice

CL or eBay, yo. Saw a 2000s for $500 four months ago. Had $0. All it requires is patience. Also, the ss stuff doesn't suck...

As far as small amps go, these prices are way off the charts. I just bought a circa 10-watt 1960s hand-made American amp, an Alamo Ryder, that sounds and it was $150

Go vintage (while it's still worth it)!

You aren't going to find a small vintage amp that sounds like a Diabolical and I've had an Alamo Ryder and is was cool but didn't keep up with my Princeton. It was worth about $150.

random but i'm thinking of buying a dual terror. gotta love orange, and they're going used for around 550. whooooo

Not really, at least in terms of not-mass-market-sold-at-Guitar-Center amps. The Diabolical is right in line with the Verellen Spaldo, Dr Z Maz 18, Reeves Custom 18, etc. and cheaper than a lot of the stuff out there (Matchless, Bad Cat, I am looking at you!). Sure, it is more expensive than a Tiny Terror or an AC15, but it is also made by hand, by a guy in a shop that you can call if you have any questions or problems.

LOL, I've got the low wattage vintage amps covered already. I'm ready for manly bass amp. Ain't no half steppin'. All the way down.

Hell if you've got the money go for it. ANd pick me up one while you're about it...

Yea I know, great solid amps. Used to have some of the aforementioned ss sunns. Been there, don't care, I guess. If I saw one for CHEAP I'd get it another but I'm not gonna quest for one, ya know?

Haha, I don't have the money (yet) & that's the problem. I will some day though...& when that day comes I'll get 2
