Last night, one of my old Fender 84 Super Champs went out. In my bag was a new 2 lb. Quilter 101. It's 50-100 watts and fits in the pocket of a guitar bag.

I didn't expect much....boy was I surprised! Combined with the excellent Tech 21 (makers of SansAmp products) Flyrig 5 and a little PA cabinet with a 10, I had something that was comparable to my JazzKat, Hendrickson or Roland 80...all amplifiers that cost a lot more.

It's an excellent jazz guitar amplifier, and a great keyboard amplifier.

I was going to just use it as a back-up, but for quiet jazz jobs with a guitar, it's GREAT.

AT $299.00, it's a real bargain. It's getting great reviews.


Check it out!

Sadly, with this small Quilter, there is no line out.

I've been selling Quilter for years, one of their first dealers. The Pro Block 200 has an emulated xlr out, the 101-mini does not.

Just ordered a 2nd Quilter from Frank. Always a great guy to do business with. I'm giving the first one to a down on his luck jazzer I know, who sold/pawned all his equipment, to buy whiskey, I think.

Don't forget Frank. He also has a well-chosen line of guitars, and stocks the great Godin product from Canada.

I'm pawning my PA4X to buy fishing gear. Please send me another one.
Thank you.

Mason, I'd kick your butt if I could reach that high.

I recently bought a ZT Lunchbox on Musicians Friend Stupid Deal Of The Day for $199. It is 100 watt guitar amp with a 6.5 inch speaker that weighs under 10 lb. A great little amp I have used at rehearsal with a drummer. And yes it is just the size of a lunchbox.

GOT ONE! Actually, it is the smaller one, which I use for rehearsals. Jazz is played pretty quietly, so 50 watts is plenty for performance. I had this one, but it had a hum and the reverb sucked. Returned it.
