Joined: April 2006 Posts: 2491 Location: Copenhagen Denmark | What I am wondering about is :..Will Fender build an Ovation Amp.?.., after all , they have the expertise , and , design/build their own , unlike others , who appoint some company to make one and then put their name on it , I know they allready have ( Fine ) acoustic amps. , but one that would fit the Ovation A/E like a glove , in *Ovation design* :p , I could be interested !.. :) Vic | ||

Joined: April 2006 Posts: 2491 Location: Copenhagen Denmark | Well , I am glad that it was Fender that took over , I see it like this , Ovation stands for Innovation with the A/E guitar ( no pun intended , just a simple fact ) , but so does Fender , just with the E guitar AND Amps. , now that could be Complementary , just look at their Acoustic amps. , compared to the competition , who come with the same " recipies " , class A amp. , 2 or 3 way speaker systems , yada etc. , but the ACOUSTASONIC amps. are a total different breed , Innovative and second to none , I could imagine ( hope ) that Fender will take it a step further , now , at last , that they have a Decent A/E to drive their , dare I say Magnificent amps., this could/will be a Challenge to their exellent know -how , Not to be taken lightly , for such knowledge could produce A/E amps. of Superb Quality for an Affordable fee , having aquired the ( imho ) BEST A/E guitar in the world , this will be no small feat to accomplish , but I`m Confident , that if Any one is up to the task , then Fender is the one to do it..I hope they will Capitalize on the opportunity :) Vic ..imagine a combo clad in textured carbon fiber , sunburst , matching colors..uhmm.... | ||

I have the Shenandoah 100 but the SHEN-PRO that I saw at NAMM look very nice. PRESS RELEASE Stereo 60 looks good | ||

Joined: January 2006 Posts: 5881 Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | I picked up a Genz Pro a while back from Al. Wow! The blue glow from the preamp tube shows through the faceplate grill. Very cool. There is also a very quiet fan that blows from the back through the chasis and out the front. I've been using this amp in the bandroom exclusively since it arrived two months ago. | ||
