Have anyone tryed a Rivera Amp - R55 - 112

[LGMT]

I found a used (EC++ condition, gigged one or two times and used at home) Rivera Fifty Five 55 watts all tube combo Celestion 12" and i would like to see what do you think of sound of this gear.
I have an old Marshall pre valvestate '85 - 2575 - Reverb 75 that i'm thinking in selling to buy this Rivera or trade.

I can't personally vouch for that amp since I've never heard one or played through one, but I can vouch for Rivera. I have a TBR-1SL that I absolutely love. The contruction and quality are amazing.

You should always try and play through something before you buy it anyway, but nontheless, it will be a quality unit. I just don't know what they sound like or if it's the sound you'll be looking for.

I ditto what Jeffery states. *I will say that last night I played Bob's Rivera rig and loved it. * The notes are so well defined. *I have played the knucklehead combo and I will also state the same for that. *I can safely say "I should have bought that Knucklehead combo".
