What is the general consensus of Crate amplifiers around here. I've always liked them, but then again I've always had a soft spot for them as my 1st true "metal" tone came from a G-212 that I bought brand new back in the mid 80's. It might have been the pickup in my Model 5a (J-95) in conjunction with the gain on the amp set at about 8-9 and the reverb cranked as well, no effects...just guitar straight to amp....it just killed.
If I could find another G-212 in good condition for cheap money, I would snap it up in a heartbeat....but then again, I might need to find a J-95 pickup to go with it LOL.
Anyways...how do you guys feel about what Crate is putting out now? ...say from the mid 90's to present.....solid state, not tube.
