Telenator · July 25th, 2008, 09:17 AM

The Hughes & Kettner 20th Anniversary Edition Tube amps that MF keeps baiting us with at $399 and then cancelling our orders, has actually arrived!

These things do exist!

How about a pic and a link?

How does it sound.

Looks like they have been discontinued: http://www.musiciansfriend.com/produ...6&src=3SOSWXXA

Bwahahaha - Telenator hasn't even seen his new amp yet - and I've already played it!

The sound is awesome - crystal clear clean sounds (that phrase never meant that much to me until I heard this amp) and real honest to goodness Marshall crunch with the gain up high - better, in fact, than my Marshall. This is one sweet amp!

Gone, but not forgotten!

There are a still a few Scratch and Dent models - a bit pricier, but I talked them down to $485. It's a lot of amp for that price!

Is it true that it is made in Germany?

gibsonjunkie · July 28th, 2008, 11:04 AM

Ja!

Hi,
does anybody know if there is a way to lower the gain?
Someone mentioned that the 2nd channel is OP driven so I'm not sure if it will just lower the volume if I change the 12AX7 tubes to 5751 or 12AT7

Saw one of those at a private music store in town here and they were asking close to seven hundred. Eyed that on MF many times wistfully. Great score!!! That amp should take you places!

You can get it here for much less than that -

Those are great sounding amps. I was quite surprised by the tones.

I had mine set up at our last big jam and it held its ground quite well.
