Thinning the herd at Studio101nola.
We are WELL fixed for amps with great tone- recent stroke of luck took care of that- these are simply work-horses- all of them make decent enough tone and power, but reliability is something we can't be sure of- neither DJ nor I have enough experience with any of them to have a good handle on reliability- we have SOME, but not enough to know much.
Please tell me if you have any first-hand experience with the reliability of any of these- but second-hand knowledge or persistent rumors are helpful, too. We are not too worried about tone unless one is just horrible.
These amps are being considered as for sale's:
Fender Frontman 212R (we had to put this one in the shop, once already. Not a good sign.)
Fender Roc Pro 1000 Yes, I know this one's got a 12AX7 tube. cheap and common tube, so it's close enough to be considered SS, for my purposes here.)
Fender Deluxe 112
Line 6 Spider 212 (Red Face) This one required service once, too. ARRGGGG.)
Carvin TS-100 all-tube stereo power amp for guitar. We have 6L6's on one side, EL84's on the other (I get 6L6's confused with 6V6's; 84's confused with 34's- the bigger of each is what it has.) It's made for that, the only one we care about tone.
Peavey Stereo Chorus 212. Damn thing is so powerful- 260 watts- that it blew the Black Widow speakers in it.
Peavey Basic 40. Bass amp.
Gallien-Krueger Backline 115
G-K 250ML, the one with heavy-duty 6's in it.
If anyone is interested in any of these, let me know. And thanks.
