In the opinion of the Forum, what is the best amp to use for the Mullennium Universal 12? The range of music is from Wes Montgomery jazz to Country E9th.
Thanks for the info,
Jerry Clardy |

I'd recommend the Stereo Steel amp system for any steel.  Last I knew, Reece was still using his. |

Jerry,
FWIW.
I play my new U12 thru a PV S2000. Pretty close to a NV1000. Great guitar + great amp |

I'm with Jim on this one, I got to hear and play the Millenium through the PV 1000 and the Stereo Steel in Dallas and my choice would be the Stereo Steel hands down.
I would suggest you try it through any amp you can get your hands on and make sure the Stereo Steel is one of them then you'll hear the difference for yourself. |

I'm not familiar with the Stereo Steel amps. Where can I find out about them?

Unfortunately, as another post noted, the Stereo Steel website is down.  In the meantime you can email GD Walker, the designer and builder, at gdwalker@mei.ws or call him at (619) 460-5008.

Thanks for the added info on Stereo Steel, Jim. I tried a Google search and found them but I couldn't access the site, either. I'll give an email or call tomorrow.

I've used mine thru both a N'ville 400 and currently the Stereo Steel, with a Roland GP-100. 1501-4's Duane Marrs cabs. Great sound.
I did use a provided Session 400 recently at a 5 night casino showroom and it sounded killer (with the GP providing Rev/Delay/Chorus).

Hi Danny,
I'm looking at you on the MSA website. My guitar is going to look a lot like yours. What pickups did you get? I think the picture has a Geo L.
Have you compared the Digitech Quad 4 that Gerry Walker is selling with the Stereo Steel system to the GP100? Where can I find out about the Duane Marrs cabs? Are they different from the ones at Stereo Steel?

Duane Marrs - http://www.marrsofmadison.com/ . I used his cabs as they are tolex covered vs. Ozite for Gerry's. Just my personal choice....
I did not compare the GP and Digitech. I was already using the GP. I like it a lot, and thanks to Tommy Detamore for the info on the GP.
I do have the E-66 on the MSA but am going to try the Tru-tone shortly, for grins...
