The Steel Guitar Forum

Thanks a lot. I feel the same way about this amp..I feel like I am getting the sounds like I want them to sound.It evenmakes my Maverick sound fuller, more body. And the professional sounded good before , but now, WOW what tone. Bob H.

Is the n'ville 112 the same amp as the TRANSTUBE 112 ? If so I just recently gt oneand I think it isthe best amp I have ever had. I really like the weight too!! 34 and a half lbs. Bob H.

In reply to Eddies post. He didn't tell you the half of their show..This is the best show in northwest Arkansas.. take the whole family . It is in Eureka Springs Ark. If you are anywhere near don't miss it.. I live near and I am going back every chance I get. This is an Award winning production.
