AMPS

Bogner Ecstacy 101B

bogthmb.jpg (2434 bytes)

120 watts of pure EL34 tone. This amp kills.

A Review of the Bogner 101B - BOGNER amps are, without a doubt, the finest channel switching amps on the planet. Thats a bold statement, but one that you will agree with the moment you plug into one. With amps like the Ecstasy, Shiva, and Metropolis (just released!!), you simply can't go wrong. These are the amps I have been playing for six years and I liken my relationship with my Ecstasy to marrying the perfect woman. In other words once you find her you simply stop looking. Although I've heard some mighty good multi-channel amps in the past few years, I've found nothing that would make me cheat on my Bogner. Dealers can be few and far between, so hearing one isn't always easy. If you call us, we can personally consult with you on the best model to suit your needs. You'll be suprised by our ability to describe the sounds these amps are capable of. They are big investments, but you'll reap the benefits every time you play.

Body - Swamp ash

Single Coil Pickups - 2 Lindy Fralin Vintage
Humbucker - Tom Holms 456 w/ split knob

A Review of the Retro Classic - In a market increasingly filled with high-end Strat guitars we have tried them all. Don Grosh stands out as the premier builder of the most soulful, vintage feeling and sounding of the bunch. These guitars are the real deal and you won't find anything that nails that vintage magic as well as the Retro Classic.
