Fender Steel King Demo !!
Anyone who lives in comfortable driving distance of Columbus, Ohio should visit Lang Music and check out Fender's newest contribution----it's got the best features of a Webb 6-14 E without the price! It certainly would NEVER "replace" a Webb but for a gigging amp this one works well. Didn't The Big E himself give it a left-handed compliment? OSGA Members get a bit of a discount if it's mentioned BEFORE you get too deep into the negotiations!!
Thanks all---Merry Christmas, too!

Hey Jim, Gary and everyone one else--Happy New Years---best in '06!
Lang is located just off Hamilton Road across from Eastland Mall on the east side of Columbus. It's tuck away in the Crossroads Center which is a strip mall----technically the address is 4434 Crossroads Center but if you're coming to visit call for complete directions.
Everyone is welcome to come play through the amp but you would have to bring your own steel. I am personally available to demo the amp at anytime convenient but email me direct so we could set an appointment--I'm not in the store all the time. Whether you buy or not it's worth the time just to see what's new in this area.
I've had a Webb and of course a Nashville 400 and also own a Vibrosonic from the late '70's---this Steel King is a very nice amp considering everything. The cabinet is deeper which is going to be great for the lower notes and seems to be a a good match for the special design Eminence speaker which is a copy of the JBL D-130's.
There are also a few modern day convenices built in like the EQ section that can be switched out if desired. It's a beefy amp but does come complete with removable casters and even a cover is included---very unusual in this day!
I think Fender has FINALLY done their homework, looked at a lot of steel amps and rolled them all into this one. I think it's almost fair to say it's a Webb 6-14 E at Peavey prices----NOT a bad thing at all!
See ya y'all!
