Any chance of an internal picture of the amp? I occasionally work with some old communist era control systems in eastern Europe and would be interested to see if the over engineered their amps the same way they did a lot of other stuff.

Interesting to hear...:cool: Here you go pal!

New filter caps and tubes

BTW. the company is still in the amp business under name of Laboga! They've got some really cool amps.

To me, a ordinary enthusiast, it looks pretty much like a standard SL. Be sure to share your conclusion about the design:D

No, it doesn't look familar - looks more like they got inspiration from a regular valve amp, maybe a Sound City as the label looks similar.

It's a neat amp though - how does it sound?

I don't have this disorder but I do find it pretty cool that my new amp is the first of its kind to be sold in Canada. Yeah the circuit is just a normal Vox AC15 circuit but the limited edition blue ones are nice and rare - there are only about a dozen of them available in the country and, as I said, mine is the first to be sold.

There's a blue AC15 for sale just an hour from here. I liked the look but I don't need another amp that size. Still...

Amazing in my opinion. It's quite a clean amp, it doesn't break up much before you really crank it but it loves all kinds of pedals and sounds really great ass a bass amp.

I got a Danelectro dx250 head & 1x12 cab
I've seen plenty of dr or dg 250's for sale, but not a dx
I can't even find any info on it.
REAL clean sound. better than a Fender Twin

I have this amp too the dx250. I got it in a trade for an ampeg sr212.
Its big on tone. I put a Ibanez 999us tube king in front of it for od. Sounds pretty bad ass. It can get fairly loud so I'm going to try using it at practice, to see if it can cut thought.

I have a bunch of stuff that is kind of rare. Mostly I have this kind of stuff not because it's rare, but because I like looking for cool stuff and have been looking for a long time.

Not everything I have like this is expensive, some of it is just kind of odd and some of it is really cool.

I have collected Boss and DOD pedals for years and have most of the cool ones (Spectrum, Slow Gear, Dimension C, etc...).

I also have some guitars and amps that are harder to find - Mosrite, Brown Fenders, etc....

For me, I have always bought what I liked, not what I thought would be worth more/less in the long run.

Buy what you like and you will always be happy:)

Bad photo, but this is a guitar I made - basically one of a kind, even though I bought the neck. The body is 100% made and designed from scratch though. Honduras Mahog with a Zebrawood top.

I did a review right here:

Boss DC-2 Dimension C Review | Teh Official Blog of Amp360 !111!!!1111!

basically, it's a chorus/vibrato type of effect with presets. At the time, the circuit was so sophisticated it took two boards stacked on top of each other, so they couldn't fit pots in there. that being said, it's a very versatile pedal.

Only thing that has survived my years of travel and trades is my 1987 Rat.

Bought new in 87' I can't remember what I paid for it they were $50-$75 at the time I think.

I know my dad almost stroked out when he found out.

"What the hell's that thing even DO?"
