I have decided to move on and sell my Grandmeister 36 amp along with all the accessories I had purchased for it, some have not been used yet. In the quest to find "my sound" I found this amp and it opened the doors for me to learn a lot about tubes and how to setup equipment and guitars to get the most of them for your playing style. Coming from almost 30 years of solid state amps and digital multi-fx processors into this amp was night and day difference for me. Yet I found myself looking back to the past and the days of tube amplifiers and analog fx pedals working together. And I had long abandoned using pedals altogether in favor or rack mounted power amps and programmed pre-amp units.
Yet, my quest kept deepening me further into the vintage sounds of Classic and Hard Rock band's live performances the likes of Woodstock, California Jam, and Day on the Green. Yes I went back to my roots. The search led me to brands that were there then, albeit modern renditions of that equipment yet true to their original approach to getting the sound right. I found my tone coming from Orange Amplification, so I bought two all tube heads to use with my Marshall 412 and Blackstar 112 cabs. The pedalboard I've been building for months now from the Behringer PB600 consists strictly of analog pedals mostly made by hand here in the good old USA.
I was attracted to the GM36 for many of its features, namely powerful and loud, the lit up front panel where its shows its insides, and the built-in fx, controllable by software and PCs, 2 features I was accustomed to from my days with racks and patch programming and presets. But I still wanted a warmer tone with a more simplified setup with less controls needed to get the sound. Orange amps and individual analog pedals made it easy for me to just dial a few knobs and go. I couldn't be happier!
So it leads me to here selling the amp along with all the accessories I got for it listed here, you can look them up and get more details along with their current prices. I am offering free shipping securely packed, I do not have the original box or printed materials, but yes the carry case and power cable. I wish to sell this complete as a package and welcome reasonable offers, you can go to my ebay and reverb listing here so see it, but if someone from this forum makes me a good offer I will accept it. Please no picking or choosing from these items, they must all go. Any offers email me thru this site or @ amalito@planetworking.net.
Visit these links to see pictures of the accessories, the photos are all stock, the amp is in pristine MINT condition, has never been gigged or left smoke free home for rehearsals.
