Someone here bought one, or something very much like it, but I can't find it on the Top Hat website. see the link in my above post... I'm gonna start calling it FatGASguitars.com from now on... and something I just caught, I didn't really notice that it was a four input design, does that mean you can blend the vox and marshall tones?! doesn't look like a seperate set of knobs for each channel tho, I'm gonna have to look closer... edit: Oh, and I thought the Club Royale was a marshall clone of some kind, because thats typically what Tophat does, but I guess it isn't... I'm gonna look more into this amp for sure List Price is 1859 for those who can't be bothered to visit the site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members FWAxeIbanez Posted June 1, 2006 Author Members Share Posted June 1, 2006 Originally posted by Loghead Well, I'll sodomize myself with a spork. That's one tasty place. Seriously, have a look at the Grosh guitars man... some of his les paul designs are beyond gorgeous, and his fender inspired stuff looks fantastic too... I wish this place was in california... I'd drive 3 or 4 hours for a place like that if they kept the stuff in stock another thing I love is they don't have any of the "Call for price!" bull{censored}... they tell you the list right then and there, and if they can beat the list then you just type in your e-mail address and an automatic mailer system sends you a generic e-mail containing the actual price and from then on you never recieve another e-mail, no spam no nothing... the way it should be IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In architecter and perhaps some furniture it looks cool. It may even look cool on a tube amp. So no Art deco or art deco officinados are not necessarly gay. But IMO that amp with a top hat looks gay.

I wasn't kidding, I'd kill if I had to... I disagree that any post has to be "positive" or "supportive" Everyone is free to tell it like it is. Is that all you want is butt-kissing? I didn't see "sex" when I viewed the amp. I saw a little retro. Thought it was pretty cool. I saw "prolly overpriced"....but hey that's just me and goddamn me to hell for it. Man....sorry...but I hate the notion that you can only post "all cool, bro-ish, and groovy" or not at all. Or your some kind of asshole. Everyone is.
