It is so quiet at idle even with my Grosh RCVT's single coils. It does clean, crunch, and breakups really well. Geoff738 June 26th, 2009, 03:38 AM I wish to be a member of this club. Soon. Cheers, Geoff rhinocaster June 26th, 2009, 03:56 AM I have the 6v6se. It's the only Swart I've REALLY wanted (though the slightest twist of the arm will lead me to more). I love it to death! http://i274.photobucket.com/albums/jj251/rhinocaster/DSCN0804.jpg eggman June 26th, 2009, 02:05 PM Howdy, It came down to the Carmen Ghia and a near mint Swart Atomic Space Tone for my latest amp. Since I'd actually played the Ghia, I went for it. It's a ball. But the AST is an intriguing amp; The demos on Youtube at Wolfe Guitars impressed me. Michael Swart told me that it is possible to shoehorn a Celestian Gold AlNiCo speaker into the AST. It's stock ceramic speaker was my only objection. I'll keep an eye on this thread, as Swart has a great reputation and I'd be keen on owning one someday. Eggman valiant June 26th, 2009, 05:02 PM Really intrigued by the legendary Swart Space Tone 6V6se and was dreaming of one day buying one but couldn't find enough money and ended up with a Valvetrain 205 and couldn't be more happy....the Valvetrain is a brilliant amp and a quality masterbuild 1955 Princeton (5F2a) in a two tone "black & tan" finish which Fender now offer on a limited edition Blues Junior.....however the baby Swart is said to be a very special amp.

It does clean, crunch, and breakups really well. Not sure when, but I will be an owner in the future. BarnesTO July 28th, 2009, 04:25 PM Man I want a 6v6se....Everytime I see pics of 'em in black tweed I get major GAS.... Goldtop78 July 28th, 2009, 08:21 PM Question for current owners of Swart amps. Does the AST (20 watts) have enough power for gigs? If so, what sized venue? How is the headroom? I play classic rock and blues.....and my band is a 5 piece with another guitarist. Thanks! rhinocaster August 8th, 2009, 12:36 PM One thing about Swart amplifiers is that Michael seems to really over spec and overbuild these things. Look at the transformer in the 6V6se! http://i274.photobucket.com/albums/jj251/rhinocaster/st_tweed_rear2_330.jpg Everyone that plays my Swart falls in love.
