Greetings to all fellow Sunn worshippers!
I'd never thought I'd say that! Anyhow, Now I'm not going to sell my Sunn alpha 112r (notice I wrote it in small letters just like on the amp!) I'm tickled pink to find this site. My alpha was my first big amp I owned and still do. Before I had it I had a small amp with a tiny tube in it I believe. I don't remember what it was. My second amp I had was a Pignose! After I blew up my second amp, I went and purchased a solid state Sunn (Everyone was into the tube sound in 1979 and I wanted to be different, I was a rebel in all the wrong stupid ways back then!). These days I use it for bass. I'm now a tube guy though! I play small tube amps, mostly Fender. Does anyone know if Fender is still making Sunn Gear? I know they own it now. Perhaps I should ask that on a different post. I'm sure I'll have more to add and ask later. For now I just like to say I feel great that I ran into this forum!
Here's my Gear: Sunn alpha 112r, Fender Vibro Champ, Pro Junior, Blues Junior,Super Reverb, Vox AC4TV, Lil' Night Train, Blackstar HT-1, Guitars: 2 Fender Strats, Telecaster, Squier Tele, Gibson LP Special SL, Epi SG Special, Fender P Bass, Kay SG.
