I'm just upset that no electronics shops can fix my 4 broken SS amps! The shop that's supposed to be best in Calif. kept my $75 bench fee and returned the head to the SS Carvin acoustic amp, 200 W.. They even called me to send them the postage. America is broken. |

Same can be said for Jeff Bloch's Guitar & Amp Wellness Center in my old Gravesend (Brooklyn) stomping grounds, when my '80s Peavey Bandit 65 developed a couple sonic gremlins... IME any good tech will happily work on a name-brand analog SS amp - you might just have to search a little harder these days. By the same token, I've yet to find one that'll go anywhere near a digital amp for love or money - so for all you folks who sunk your bucks into the whizbang bells-&-whistles modeling-rig-of-the-week (whether that week was in 1998 or 2023) my advice is to use them for as long as they work, consider them disposable when they don't, strip them for useable parts (speakers, knobs, etc.), learn from your experience. and invest in a quality analog (tube or SS) rig next time around...

Quilter's aren't exactly a solid state amp although they have no tubes. They are definitely not digital. Much more engineering goes into them. They are excellent amps and won't give you any problems. Plus you can call them up and talk to Pat directly. Can't beat the customer service. I have two and highly recommend them.

So, not solidstate, no tubes, not digital. So what exactly are Quilter amps?

In all likelihood Quilters in the hands of a music repairman are surface mount constructed PCB swap repairs just like the DSP amps maligned earlier in this thread…

Were you looking for a amp for electric or acoustic guitar? The Vox VX50AG is a 50 ss amp weighing only 9lbs but is for acoustic guitar.

Ohiopicker wants a solid state amp. There are plenty of reliable ones. Let's help.

See what Quilter has to offer. My Quilter Microblock 45 must be under five pounds. I plug it into a speaker cabinet, and a small cabinet with a neodimium speaker won't weigh much.
You might also check the weights of some of Roland's Blues Cube models. Let us know what you get! |

I think of mine as solid-state. Now I guess I'll learn what it really is.

I think if any part of it is digital, it IS digital. And that makes it, you know, digital. [shudders]
