After a tragically long break - at last a post!
I've posted previously about VASE amps, the iconic brand of valve guitar and bass amps that a group of us are bringing back from the dead.
The VASE site will be up and running in December. You can register on the site now at:
As a taster, here are some images of a special set of small combo units that we recently built for the Southbank Institute of Technology for their Sound Technology/Recording Road Crew Training Program in Brisbane. We heard that they were going to purchase 12 little combo amplifiers for their rehearsal studios and recording activities, so we thought we would knock together 12 guitar amps just for this project. Noel Bourne came up with a great circuit and we built 12 of these little babies. 8 are black with Celestion greenback, 2 cream coloured ones with vintage 30 and 2 blue ones with g12h Celestions and the beefed up pre amp section. Noel calls it “Marshall on Viagra”!!
Our first public release will be the long awaited Trendsetter 60 Vintage re-issue. However you never know when these little combos might bob up in the future! Let us know if you think they should.
