Members fanuvbrak Posted December 8, 2008 Members Share Posted December 8, 2008 There's an old Garnet "The Deputy" for sale near me for $250.00. From what I've found so far, it seems like it's a hand wired point to point 50 watt combo that was modelled off of the Marshall Plexis. Anyone have any experience with these? I haven't played it yet, so I can't comment on the tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Johnny'sGotTheBlues Posted December 8, 2008 Members Share Posted December 8, 2008 A Garnet Rebel was my first amp. I don't know the "Deputy" model but from my experience, don't bother with it. But don't listen to me, try it out. If you like it, $250 is a cheap 50 watt combo.

Members Flogger59 Posted December 8, 2008 Members Share Posted December 8, 2008 There were some Garnets laying around when I started in retail. They were horribly unreliable, but OTOH they were the Guess Who's backline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members somata Posted December 8, 2008 Members Share Posted December 8, 2008 i know steve albini used a garnet combo (not sure of which one) as part of steve von till's rig (along with his mark iv stack) on the neurosis album "the eye of every storm" not sure about that specific model, but i know some garnet amps are fairly sought after...

Listening to that album right now! I have nothing else to add, consider this a bump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members reddt1 Posted December 8, 2008 Members Share Posted December 8, 2008 Gordie Johnson (Big Sugar, Grady) uses them. His tone his amazing, but he's got them so loud they almost kill you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
