Mike,
I have been looking at specs on the Transtube 212EFX , and it looks like it would eliminate the need for my rack (fx&tuner).All I use is delay/chorus/reverb.
How would this amp do for PSG, I now have a Sessios 400 Limited/Rocktron intellifex online,and Korg tuner.
Thanks for your help.

Hello Bill,
Thanks for inquirng about the Transtube 212EFX amp. Yes, this amp would eliminate the need for your rack effects as it has a digital effects processor built in. However, I must tell you that the equalization on this amp was initially designed using six string electric guitars, but the eq is the "classic" LOW, MID and HIGH design so it will work. But, this type of equalization is preferred by many players.

But, I took a Transtube 112EFX and 212EFX to the Texas show this year and it sounded very good for a small low powered steel amp. [This message was edited by Mike Brown on 24 September 2002 at 06:41 AM.]

could that amp house a single 15, I have a new twin and want to Black Widow it, my 3 peaveys all have BW's and it is a better sound to my ears than a 2 12 config

Jim, the baffle height is exactly 15" on the Transtube 212EFX, so the fit would be tight.
The problem with this is that the speaker would have very little surface area and could result in baffle buzzing or rattling.
