Great idea for a thread

See this motherfucker right here? It takes no shame in being SOLID STATE. Never mind that SS amps of that era were unreliable pieces of crap and have a worse reputation than modern ones, for some reason, people still love this amp.

Obviously, it's because it looks like some kind of futuristic oven, but mostly because it has SOLID STATE written on it in big red letters.

Obviously; SS versions of amps become cool as long as they inform you of this fact in giant gaudily coloured letters.

With this philosophy in mind; let's shoop some SS amps.

You go first, ILF.

The Vox Pathfinder is great little amp for getting some sick nasty tonez. Like your amp is about to explode, are at least your speaker is going to rip to shreds.

the great TKO 65

All of these are ime









This one sounds excellent with guitar as well.

Yup, got 3 of those puppies for my groups. Rusty sounds.

+1 for the ZT Lunchbox too, tiny thing with tubular sounding balls and incredible volume.

Best solid state cleans I've ever heard (and I've owned a couple Jazz Chorus').
