Members keith335 Posted September 1, 2005 Members Share Posted September 1, 2005 I forgot who posted it, but the guy was right. I called soldano today. they no longer do the single chanel HR50. They do, however, do the avenger in a 50 and 100. They seem to believe people wanted the depth mod on their amps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members danhops Posted September 1, 2005 Members Share Posted September 1, 2005 Now I can put my HR-50 through the roof on Ebay. I wont, but I am sure once word spreads people will give them rediculous markups, and people will pay them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members keith335 Posted September 1, 2005 Author Members Share Posted September 1, 2005 Your point is well made. I've made my mind up that I'm not going to pay but so much for any of this stuff. Gibson thinks some of there guitars are worth what a good late model used car cost. Some of the boutique amps are tooo high. 4,000 for an amp?I tried an Avenger and found it to be too compressed. I wanted the HR50 because I only need one chanel and I thought it would be more like the slo. If I have to settle for an Avenger I'll get the 100 wat one. the amp gets tons of gain at low volumes. there really is no rationale for a 50 wat avenger. I don't want the hr50 two chanel amp it is too high priced. Amps in my range are Shiva, Avenger, Flexi, Stiletto etc. Maybe a fuchs supreme overdrive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members rbm Posted September 1, 2005 Members Share Posted September 1, 2005 I have an HR-50 single channel. Its funny, not too long ago on this forum this amp was getting so dogged! Now its sought after. Just goes to show how hype works:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TU BE Posted September 1, 2005 Members Share Posted September 1, 2005 A 50 watt Avenger!!!! I just popped a woody!!! Anyone want to buy a Rectoverb head? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Ryan Turner Posted September 1, 2005 Members Share Posted September 1, 2005 Damnit, now it'll be harder for me to find a HR 50 at a decent price:(. I hope news about this does not get out, you no how ebayer's like to take every chance they can get (even if its long shot, i.e. 5150 Block Letter vs. signature) to raise their price alot. Now the HR-50 will be known as "rare" and "vintage" on ebay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DannyM Posted September 1, 2005 Members Share Posted September 1, 2005 I like the info that I read the other day that stated that the Avenger is getting a FX Loop. I didnt like that they are changing the face of the Avenger......I like the way it looked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I miss my Avenger so much. That was my post earlier about the Avengers. I talked to Bill and Sean at Soldano... All new Avengers will have an effects loop and they are changing the tube heaters so that amp is quieter. Will be a couple weeks before they;re available. They will also have grills like this.... older alluminum grills were all polished and sanded by Mike Soldano himself and taking about 3-4 hours per grill. Costing way too much money...
