Synth Stompbox

Got some soundsamples?

[New Frontier]

I didn't know about the GK.. I have one !!!!!

But the speakers are damaged.. Anybody knows where to find some replacements ?? They are 16 ohms speakers, and they're pretty hard to find here in Brazil.. Actually I've found some, but the cost about $100 each, wich is not woth for this small amp !!!

Frontier..
plug it into a cabinet.. a nice big 4x12 sounds great.
For the modded GK amp - check out this soundclip

Tks Mark..

But, do I have to make some modification if I plug a marshall 4x12 cabinet 1960A ??

Hope I can reach the same sound is this sample..

I think you can plug that amp right into a cabinet...
as far as the mods - I'm not sure what was done.. I haven't talked to the guy in a while, but if I recall - he wasn't even sure what was modded..
I think his father is an engineer and modded the amps for him for super high-gain.  (it may be nothing more than tweaking trimpots inside, for all I know).

Thanks for that...
guess my suspicion about the trimpots was correct!
