.I am looking to trade my Baron B60, handwired with some of the best components available. These run new at $1700, and there is a 6 month waiting list as of now to even get one of these fantastic amps. The cosmetics on this one are a one off design based on the Bogner Ecstasy. Is it based on an Ecstasy? I honestly don't know, but it has a better Clean Channel than the Shiva I had and it can get crunchy as well. Along with the cleans it also has two stages of gain on the OD Channel. The footswitch controls all of the functions except for the bright switches and the Power amp settings. The controls on the footswitch operate the channels, vintage/modern modes, Gain A or B, FX Loop, and a seperate boost for the OD channel. This amp is the most versatile amp that I have ever owned. It is 60 watts and has a brand new set of Winged=C= EL34's. There is also Presence, and Thump dials for the Poweramp section, as well as a tight/normal switch. The only thing wrong with this amp is that the bright switch on gain A is a tad touchy, but works perfect. The customer service for these amps are also amazing. You will get an answer to any questions within a day. I am only looking to trade towards Tube amps, or Guitars. The only reason that I am wanting to trade it is b/c I prefer single channel amps for the most part, and this thing just has way to many options for me. I end up tweaking instead of playing. Thanks and here is a link to a demo of the exact amp. I am thinking a trade value of around $1,300. Open to all offers, but looking mainly for tube amp heads. Marshall, Mesa, Orange, etc.Dirty:

The clean channel gives you pristine warm squeaky clean tones to warm bluesy with a little breakup. Great for all kinds of music.
The crunch channel takes you from vintage crunch , all the way to modern hot rodded british high gain tones. Dual gain modes (Medium and High) allow the player to set the amp up just right for the type of tones you are looking for. The Vintage and Modern voicing add to the flexibility of the crunch channel. The distortion is tight articulate and full of warm harmonics. You can go from clean mild breakup to chewy ballsy high gain tones The gain structure of this channel is voiced for vintage rock, all the way to modern hot rodded searing lead tones.. The full "British" spectrum of tones are available here!
Power amp voicing with presence thrust and responses control adds more flexibility. The thrust control adjusts the low end response of the amp as well as the presence for the high end response of the amp. The response switch allows how tight the power amp reacts, for even more options in tone.
Effects Loop that is fully transparent and pedal/rack friendly and can be fully bypassed if desired.
