What I did know was that I now had the ultimate guitar amplifier in my hands.īut the sad thing was, I would never hear it as it was intended, a full tilt with the power valves cooking as it was just far too loud. Maybe he was passing it onto me after a lifetime of gigging? Who knows. It came into my possession from a bandmate and I suppose mentor at the time. This was the real deal with the fabled Celestion Blues. Probably the most iconic guitar amplifier ever made, particularly for Queen fans, as I am. My first 1×12 combo amplifier but hardly a step-up from the flyspec as the overdrive channel was so bad.
