Members Faldoe Posted July 14, 2012 Members Share Posted July 14, 2012 I got mine for $75 used - was basically new. Its seriously an awesome amp. I was using a Ampeg Gemini I as my "bedroom" amp which for obvious reasons is kinda silly, but I'm gonna sell it cause I don't really need it. The 15r sounds really good and is plenty loud. I'd considering making a new baffle and dropping a 10'' in there. Originally Posted by arthurdent'd I currently own a Special 6, and used to own a Pathfinder. The VHT KILLS. but what can you get a 6 for used? $50-75 used for a pathfinder. SS - no need to worry about tubes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members plaidbeer Posted July 14, 2012 Members Share Posted July 14, 2012 Love my Pathfinder and play through it 90% of the time, but I never see them in stores except for one store I went by in Denton, TX. Sorta odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members twanguero Posted July 15, 2012 Members Share Posted July 15, 2012 Originally Posted by t-rey Anybody know the dimensions of the Pathfinder heads? I want one, but not badly enough to pay the going rate - so I was thinking it could quite a bit cheaper to buy a combo and build a head shell (or have one built). I have the 2x10 cab that came with the head. Haven't found the head for sale, so I've been stacking the 15r combo on top of it. It fits perfectly. Just wish I had a black grill on the combo so it would match the cab... You could just chop the cab on the combo to make a head. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could just chop the cab on the combo to make a head. Thanks! Yeah - if they are the same width, I'll estimate the height, chop that {censored} and try my hand at tolexing it. I'm assuming I would need to make a front baffle as well.Edit - Wait...does the combo have outs for an external cab? Would it be more involved than disconnecting the combo speaker and making it into a head, or would there be wiring involved??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know why you'd bother converting a cheap combo into a head given that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members echodeluxe Posted July 18, 2012 Members Share Posted July 18, 2012 so, i got to try out a pathfinder today.the hype is justified.i tried out the 10 cuz they didnt have the 15r. so on the clean channel, it was pretty good. warm, full sounding. then i turned up the gain and it was all FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUZZZZ ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZwith the gain turned up all the way it was this super sweet thick fuzz. very cool. it was useful and good too, not {censored}ty and ice picky.so basically, it was $74 new, so if i cant find the 15r, i might just pick the 10 up.

Members ert Posted July 18, 2012 Members Share Posted July 18, 2012 just bought one. LOVE it! crazy as it sounds, its almost as loud as my ac15c1 or so it seems in a smaller room.question for other pathfinder owners...on mine, with the gain and volume at max and the boost on, i can always hear some bleed through of the tremolo even when the tremolo speed and depth are off. is this common for other pathfinders?

Members mr_cheef Posted July 18, 2012 Members Share Posted July 18, 2012 Got my baby Vox yesterday, I can't get over how good this sounds or how LOUD it can get! I'm not overly fussed about the drive sounds, but the cleans are incredible! The best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members zinzin Posted July 18, 2012 Members Share Posted July 18, 2012 cleans are GREAT on my pathfinder 15r ministack 2x10, but i hear some strange artificial noise when set on crunch during the fade-out of chords, boh ... all in all a very good amp. i used it to record as well and people always can't believe that it's just that transistor amp.

Don't know why you'd bother converting a cheap combo into a head given that. Good to know. And I don't really have a reason to want to convert it into a head other than just preferring heads/cabs over combos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
