My Old Standel Custom amplifier

Postby PhilHunt » Sat Dec 15, 2012 4:42 am

Well I finally tracked down my old Standel out in California....it's the Custom model all the way in the back. Anyone else owned this model? I wish I still had it, it was a great sounding amp and it had a JBLD130 with silver cap. Tuck Raisor played it once at CAAS and said it was one of the best sounding solid state amps he ever heard and even wanted to buy it from me. I got hard for money about 10 years ago and sold it to Danny Mckinney of Standel who put it in the Standel collection museum. It's the same amp Wes Montgomery played.
Does anyone know if Standel is still making amps?
The Custom model was a great amp. I believe Chet had one in the 60's when he was touring and playing with Boots and Floyd.
