CANADIAN MADE ..... EH!
Hold on to your beers and check out:
New little discovery of mine at:
http://www.stephensonamps.com
check out the STAGEHOG. It is very cool and a totally portable amp ,but with genuine plexi type tone and many many more possible tones that BLOWS aways the NANOAMP. In fact, Mr. Stephenson told me as of last week David Lee Roth's guitarist was really stoked on it.
I asked him more about it, he said it IS an class A amp (power scaling, full sized pots, tranys etc) that has 1 watt RMS. It can be used as a preamp type pedal into an amp (select the right jack) or BETTER, plug into a 150W (effective 20watt) 4 pound crate solid power amp; then into a 4x12 for giggin volumes!! He may even have a 600W solid state amp -effective 100 RMS- that may be available by him in the future!!!!! THE INVISBLE MARSHALL STACK!!!! HAHAHAH
OK now imagine, you bring a guitar, pedal board (stage hog and trans power amp inside) to a gig, using the house 2x12 or 4x12, blowing away everyone with your tone at 100 WATTS RMS but no one can see an amp?? hehe Killer!!!! I think may be ordering one soon, but the wait for these is about 3-5 months. The price is higher, but this IS not pedal. IT is a pro boutique amp, that may be used as a pedal, clean boost etc. THe portability of a pedal, but HUGE REAL TUBE AMP TONE. Man, I wished I saw these things 2 years ago!!! Mr. Stephenson has worked on my vintage plexi and 1000's more boutique amps. He has an impressive cliental and like PaulC, he is geniune great guy!
BTW I suggested that he contact musictoys.com to be a dealer, but he can't even keep up with all his orders as it is. He said he would love the business, but he is a one man operation. Mr. Stephenson like Brian Mena and Paul Cochrane does all the ptp, hand craftmanship himself. I think we ALL what kind of quality their work is!
Enjoy
