Actually, I just did some YouTubing and I think that's the amp that Mr Koch is working on in one of the factory tours.  Looks great.

That may be this Class A one, I've seen that before. I'd love to try some more of their models out, but they don't go to the music shows at anymore in London cos' its a stripe up.

I've just read that PRS were trying to buy them out. Not sure how true it is but I know Paul Reed uses them.

I was expecting something complex, but three knobs and a few switches... that's how I like my Koch.

Wow these make Fender and Dr.Z look terribly complicated! I've never tried or even heard of one of these, obviously y'all like em, but what do they sound like?

I've got a Powertone II. Its great, does loads of sounds on 3 channels.  Lovely cleans to slight break up and sick OTT  'Blood In Cats Vulva' ultra gain! There's some clips of mine in the players section.

You should see the Supernova!!

I'm sure Koch can compete with them on tone Dave. The little studio tone is an great sounding amp too. Lots of demonstrators at the LGS were using them last year.

We really need to adopt  'Blood In Cats Vulva' for a revolving BKP "pickup band" at the next meet  - Are you in JMAC?  :P

The title of this thread made me wince - putting a koch on the block is something a disgruntled wife might do after discovering the existence of her errant husband's mistress... :ouch:

Why would a wife put her husbands electric guitar amplifier on a chopping block Antag?  :?

A Koch that size would be more than most women could handle.
