I was jonesing to order a Princeton with a 12” until I waited the urge out long enough and realized that my custom Super Champ with a 12” covered the same sonic ground with pedals.

So instead I saved a shit load of money and got this little beast to satisfy my GAS. Lol. It’s 9v powered!! And when plugged into my 12” Jensen is insanely impressive for what it is. You could honestly get away with this with a 12” as a practice amp on the cheap 100% if you were a beginner or just had a right budget. Takes my pedals well too. Yeah the 3” built in speaker is garbage but this is a total novelty item and looks cool. Lolol. GAS has been resolved. This thing is perfect for my basement and testing builds.

I was confused for a bit, wondering why that small amp was so expensive that you had to save a shit load of money to afford it!

But congrats on the amp, good to hear it takes pedals well. Any chance for a demo?

The difficult part of reading people’s words verse seeing their face and hearing their voice. I can see how you took the save a shit load of money the opposite way. It’s a constant struggle at work when sending off emails to people you’ve never met in person because you forget that they have no clue what level of sarcasm you have. Anyway, good lesson learned on trying to be more direct and to the point without confusing people.
As far as a demo goes sure, I can record a little ditty and post it. I still can’t believe this little beast can push my 12” so hard makes me really want to experiment with that little power module once they come back in stock that Mr. PedalPCB offers. Also this thing at the end of my board makes for a killer headphone amp.
 
The speaker is a 4-incher, not 3. Mine improved a lot with a $20 speaker upgrade. I use it as a desktop pedal test station, but it sounds decent enough that I'll actually sit and practice through it late at night and not disturb anyone else.

What speaker did you put in? I’d totally do that mod! I’m still impressed with this little thing through my Jensen.

I have 3 Oranges, so I am not at all impartial! Nice choice (no sarcasm).

The 20 watt solid state power amp in the crush 20 and the Stamp will get remarkably loud and sound remarkably good doing it, so I totally believe your new addition through a 12” Jensen sounds pretty f’ing sweet. 👍🏻 🤘
