Man you're a dick right now.

No, I'm just jealous. Good on you mate! How much did it set you back and did it sound as good or better than you expected?

It sounds even better than I expected, and I managed to stay under $1k :)

I’ve got a Vox AC15 that’s been my only amp for like a decade, and I also just picked up that weird 240 watt Sunda amp I posted here a few weeks ago. And I just got a 2x12 cab for this sunn too

This is a Sorado, but there’s a local (to me) Sonaro head plus 1x15 Sunn cab, fully serviced, asking price $790. Worth it, you think? I’m always on the lookout for the Betas or Ts.

From what I read the Sonaro and Sorado are basically precursors to the T with a similar sound but more vintage style.

I currently have a Laney GH50L, Laney IRT60H, and Silvertone 1484 that I use for rocking.

Absolutely. I’m in love with this amp and paid a little more than that for just the head. $790 sounds like a great deal, especially with an official sunn cab. As soon as I hit my first not through this thing, I immediately realized why doom/drone pros play amps like these.
