Merton Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 So, thanks to @andy67 for selling the Little Bastard to me, and thanks to @eude for bringing it all the way daan Saaf from Edinburgh. A nice little collection of Essex’s finest; old school valve, slightly newer old school class AB and modern class D. What more could a boy want? 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Merton Posted October 7, 2018 Author Share Posted October 7, 2018 It’s flippin glorious! I’ve owned a CTM100 (twice!) and a CTM30 so I knew what to expect but I forgot how damn lovely these things are. And the chrome front panel looks the business too 😎 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy67 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Aye its a good looking amp thats for sure, Can you hear the difference with the EH tubes? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merton Posted October 7, 2018 Author Share Posted October 7, 2018 TBH it’s been over three years since I last had one of the all valve heads so anything I think I can hear is probably psychosomatic. I can say it’s loud and warm and gooey and phat though. Does that help? 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bridgehouse Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Gah. I’ve just got hold of a CTM 15 and it’s far more amp than I expected.. looks like I need to keep an eye out for one of these too now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As supplier of said CTM15 I can confidently attest to the fact that it isn't a patch on the LB30... You can thank me for the GAS later! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eude Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Not a problem at all @Merton, the amp wasn't much of a conversationalist on my 8.5 hour drive, but was good company regardless Great to meet you too @andy67! Wish I could've had more time to hang around and shoot the breeze! Just FYI, @Merton has give me 1st refusal, should he take leave of his senses any time soon Cheers, Eude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andy67 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Changing the tubes in the CTM-15 makes a huge difference 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

burno70 Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 I sold my LB earlier in the year - and still miss it. Absolutely cracking amp. Phat is the word! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
