EXCELLENT Based on 59 reviews Tim Brown10 December 2024 Brad is a real gem for the guitar world. Super helpful and a wealth of knowledge. Marcel Reinen10 November 2024 Bought a shiny new Magellen 800 recently from Tony @ Tone Merchants, because I needed more power for my Barefaced Big Twin II cab, particularly when running my 5 string Fender Jazz. I've used it on a variety of gigs and this amp is insane. Never gone louder than halfway, with headroom to burn. The sound is clear and tight and as a bonus the DI feed for my IEM's is super clean. Couldn't be happier with this amp. No need to look anywhere else! Pete Loader7 November 2024 Great, good service and it was a smooth process.👍 Carl Kermode31 October 2024 Prompt and friendly service. Ordered my Ultralite Tuners on Tuesday, they were in my hand today (Thursday). Just what I was looking for. Will definitely use Tone Merchants again. Cheers!
