I just picked up this Chrome o Zone



It is the first 2x10 i have ever owned and i'm really impressed. The stock HH Invaders were absolute wank so i changed them for two Celestion G10 vintage drivers and put in a full set of JJ's.

10" Speakers, to my ear seem to make the mid range bark in a nice warm way and single notes have a tight aggressive tone. Really cool. I've already starting making some riffs for a demo video

The amp itself is great. Its 30w pentode or 12w triode and its like a mini GH with a clean channel. Like the VC and VH it has the 4 effect loops with 2 x effects knobs on the front panel to blend effects into each channel. I have it sitting next to this



Comparing the two. They both have equally good clean channels and Reverb. The VC has more usable gain and can do metal whereas the Chrome o zone is best for Paul Gilbert style hard rock distortion. Sounds Awesome

There is not a lot of info available on theses amps. I remember them being advertised in guitarist mag back in the 90's and its like time forgot them. I got this one for £270 and then £120 for speakers then £90 for JJ's. So total £480 for a mega 30w amp

Wow that looks really cool. Never seen it before. Love the tones PG got with the GH100L. Was way too big for me to consider. If only some of these were around in Australia.

Just have to keep looking on Ebay and every now and then they pop up. They always sell cheap because most guitar players don't know about them or how good they are with a speaker and valve change.
