I have a Bogen CHB50 all tube head I have converted for guitar
Sounds amazing and loud as hell

I tweaked it for earlier break-up but you get very decent cleans from it with huge bass response without getting muddy
These amps are beasts and the quality is very robust
I used good caps in the circuit and overall the amp is good to go

So I have a love for old Japanese guitars and currently I need a good acoustic. Really love the old Nippon Gakki Yamaha's.
6 string or 12 string in good condition

Otherwise you can offer me something else interesting or just buy the amp
Please no Korean guitars (or Chinese) nor solid state amps or pedals for kewl effects. I mostly play straight-up into my amps

Thanks for looking

Pics avail on request

I might go buy it tomorrow.

I think he's gonna do it for $200 and my Hairpie Classic (Muff)!

i've been eyeing this too. sadly i can't afford it. i hope you get it. it looks so fucking cool.

Do you live in Ontario Justin?  I hope I get it too, I gotta give up my Hairpie but at least it'll be 45 Watts of tube.  Haven't had a tube amp since I sold my Sunn Sceptre in September.
