Crate V18-212 Valve Tube Combo Amp Overview
Back in the day in merry olde England - before rock was huge and 12 year olds had tinnitus from 100 watt stacks - an 18 watt 2x12 combo was all you needed to set toes a-tapping at the local garden fete. A few years later, some crazed Limey decided to crank just such a combo into distortion and found it produced a brilliant, compressed sustain perfect for the blues. People started selling their souls to find these rare gems, but you do not have to because we have recreated that vintage setup - and with all the mod cons.
