Sunn Solarus information?
« on: March 30, 2006, 12:02:52 pm »
I'm looking at purchasing a Sunn Solarus head.  Anyone have one and have any advice about price or any info on quality?  I'll be using a Les Paul II and a Fender Eric Clapton strat through it, playing a variety of music from indie rock to folk to blues.

I have one.  It's 60 watts, 8 and 16 ohm outs, the reverb is kind of "eh," and the vibrato is gorgeous.  Great cleans ala Fender, but with far better low end.  Mine has JJ E34L tubes so it's more "British" sounding than normal - at low volumes it has crisp, beautiful clean tone, around 5 it starts to get dirty, and at 8 it really snarls.  Very cool.  I might be willing to sell mine, but I'd need to find something to replace it first.  Hope this helps.
