Sounds Like
Currently I play ..Kustom.. amps 9 out of 10 times that I play. I find for guitar the sound is perfect out of their 2 12 combo, and tons lighter than a jazz chorus or something, with all the good clean sound you could want. On bass I have the sweetest tuck and roll amp, silver that sounds hot and puts out monster bass through the matching 4-10s cabinet, anybody got a silver 15? I truly like the Kustom sound and you will too. Now if I can just figure out how to get one to California.
