Johnson Stage 100 Amp

Post by Lee Baucum »

I just received a flyer from Frenchy and I noticed he is selling these amps. They are 60 watts and he claims they work well for steel guitar, at low volumes.

Have any of you tried one?

Also try the Fender Cyber-Twin if you can find one. They are selling as fast as they can make them.

Excellent clean amp sounds - Twin, Bassman, Deluxe, etc with 120W. You have to keep the Trim control down so you don't overload the guitar amp input, however. It has several other volume controls later in the signal chain allowing you to make it up, though. It has reverb and other effects. The user interface is intuitive.
