they do have celebrities playing, no one knows of them! Thornley uses traynor, blue rodeo's pedal steel player uses traynor. anyway, enough ranting. nice score on the amp, they're great!

Ahh, I see. Celebrity-used, or not, Traynor looks to be a great amp :)

I'd say that was a good price for what it is.

The 70/80 has an extended high end that some love and some hate, I've tried using them with my own builds and I really love the detail and the harmonic content but they're too bright for most applications.. I really dig the G12H30 70th Anniversary though.. I think they're great and reasonably priced for most British type tones.

Eurgh, I don't.  I found them really bright and harsh.

i've been fitting in a little time with the amp, getting to know it better.  it really is different from anything i've used before!  i've always had "british" sound amps, this is very much the "american" sound.  the clean channel sparkles and chimes with single coils, and with my Les Paul it has a great piano like tone.  when cranked up a bit, you get that stinging blues tone that i've heard on so many records.  switch to the drive channel, tele in hand, and it's as if Keef is hiding behind the sofa!  but there's loads more gain available, and it can get right up to Mesa type metal tones.  and i still haven't plugged any pedals into it, although my compressor and chorus pedals are now sitting in front of it.

it's a very good amp, and i'm really looking forward to learning more
