    Don't let Leon see that rig! He may do a nightime raid on your place and scoop that baby up! :D

    In that case, great amp.

    Tim -

    O.k........That Wins :dude

    I wouldn't have thought about doing it that way - but now that I see it, it looks just freakin awesome....BTW - my 15 watter Metro sounded killer through my Bog oversize 2x12's, I imagine the 30 is stellar.

    Sweeeeeet.

    I had the cab and head shell recovered by Splawn guitars. The cab is an open back with greenbacks. It sounds very yummy indead. The grean logo that lights up looks super cool with the purple!

    Yes it has Reverb....

    I played a Metropolis at Junior's last week. I was very impressed, a lot of tone and very flexible. I played it right after a Maz Sr and Jr, so it was in good company and held it's own!

    wow!

    love the look of that amp!
    I've been using a Metro for a little over a year, and love it big time. Check out the clips for some tones, if you like.

    Well then you have one of the great amps of our time there. Bogner made his reputation on other amps, but the 30 W Metropolis Reverb is a masterpiece.
