Stolen originally from Offset Guitars Post, then stolen again by me from HCFX. Some of the amps look pretty cool, esp the Excelsior, 2x6V6 putting out 13W and a 15in speaker for $299. Seems the Super Bassman will finally be released too.

One low point to note, the Avril Lavigne sig Tele, WTF?!?!?! Gotta keep those teenage girls happy I suppose, corner that market as well......

If only that jag had a matching headstock it would be absolutely gorgeous. As it is I still want it, and I don't even really like jags that much.

How is the Excelsior gonna be 13w with 2x6V6s?

At $299 I'm sure it's made with the finest parts China can scrounge up.

Now the Bassman... I'm all over like stink on shit.

Burgundy Jag with no matching headstock, for shame.

And I already have my Mustang in a hideous color with a racing stripe with a TOM and bucker (and a 2nd single coil), so no need there.

The Greta amp would be better if it wasn't such a hideous damn color.

Word!

I thought so too. Fender is making an effort lately, some great and some fail, but they're trying...

Truth! Block inlays + matching headstock make for the best offsets. Now they need a JM like that though my head may explode when I lay eyes on it.

Yeah, it has to be Chinese and very possibly shit but could work out as a cheap bedroom/practice amp, we'll see.

My bad, not sure how that one flew off my radar. Possibly the most undeserved endorsement in the history of music.
