Sunn Sceptre 400w Tube Amp Head




Do you crave ear-deafening loudness in your guitar amp?  Look no further than the Sunn Sceptre.  This vintage 400-watt all tube beauty from Sunn amps Oregon was originally released in the late 1960's.  It is more than capable of blowing up heads and exploding ear drums.  With 4-inputs for you know, those instances when all of your sludge-head friends want to jam at once.

(I want to make a video demo video of this baby but my internal camera mic distorts too much to give a proper sample of the sound.)
2 Footswitch outputs?  Not something you see every day.  Overall, this amp has a HUGE sound, so much that you won't even want to turn the volume past 1 if you are practicing or jamming.  Great tone, and killer response.  A true classic, if you can find one of these snatch one up if you can!  Your best bet at acquiring one of these in 2013 would be E-bay, or at a local pawn shop - ask around, you may get lucky.  Does anyone out there have one of these?  If so i'd love to hear your take on them.
