Stefan Kozlowski –
This amp and cabinet are exceptional in several ways. The build quality is so good, it makes me feel like my other amps & cabs are crap. All joins, joints, parts and assemblies have a noticeable craftsmanship about them, which in my experience, stands out above anything I’ve ever seen before. Heck, even the tolex is applied so well, that it stuns me.
The tone of the amp, mated with this cabinet is what one would expect from a Hiwatt-like amp. Clean and at times even glassy but there are myriad other sounds here too. Using the jumped channel enables and entire array of options to be dialed, and when coaxed, the amp will overdrive with a wonderful taste of distortion but the sound always stays articulate and never becomes muddy. I’ve also run many pedals through this amp and it’s simply the best pedal platform I’ve ever tried.
Finally, this amp & cab, when considered together is actually a bargain. I’ve paid more for other amps/cabs and none of them lived up to the standard set by the CUSTOM LOWATT and HT1121. They present themselves in sound, vision and feel as something costing twice the price. This is the boutique amp experience in all its glory and oddly enough, value.
Now I’m trying to conjure up some justification for owning a 50 watt model
