OK guys.....there's a brief discussion on these in 1303 but lets have some real good feedback here. Union music has some 100 wt. Jackson heads brand new on sale for 450$. (list price 1,100..blah blah blah) What I want to know what those of you who tried it honestly thought of it. I'm not to concrened with the Preamp as I will be using my ADA into the power amp directly and bypass the preamp all together. I know for the same amount of money I can get a 100 wt. tube power amp but I'm looking at for a head incase the ADA (heaven forbid) needs repairs and I left without a preamp. I can use the head with a tube screamer as a possible replacement until the ADA gets fixed. The price seems reasonable but I like some opinions on the head itself. Should I haggle the price down further......should I go for the 50 watt head (same price by the way..but I'm sure It can be negotiated down) should I buy something else all together ? All you music store window shoppers who have tried this head.....lets have some help here please ! Thanks guys...........Brian

Avoid the sucker. MUCH PROBLEMS.. They are made by the same folks who make 'Sundown', a generic builder who builds what you want, for over 50 companies. I've repaired about 4 of them, and puked when I looked inside. Cheap parts, and poor workmanship. Join us in the TUBES TUBES TUBES section, #1994! Jay Tashjian |
