Wow... seriously, wow! I just got a MINT Ceriatone Lead/Bass 20 watt Marshall 2061x clone head off of ebay for $625, $575 after MS Live cashback and it's a beauty. I have come to realize, redundant or not I absolutely LOVE EL84's!!! This is Volume and Tone on channel 1 (Lead) and Volume and Tone on channel 2 (Bass). Channel one is chimey/sparkle-y in a Marshall sort of way. Channel 2 is really full and rich, but the tone is "dimed". Channel 1 is a beautiful setup for a Tele straight in, channel 2 is perfect for both of my LP's.
Mine has a 20/10 watt switch and I still can't even get it above 3 or 4 on the dial in the 10 watt setting, so I'm talking pure unadulterated cleans right now. But damn it sounds good. A perfect platform for pedals, more than enough headroom to gig I'm sure and once my hot plate comes in I can't wait to crank the Lead channel and hear what it has to offer for tube breakup. The cab, knobs, pots, attention to detail are on par with MUCH more expensive amps (most of which I have owned lol!).
This won't be my last Ceriatone. This one was built and assembled by Nik FWIW, YMMV.
