Sunn o)) Amps Comeback...?

[dronerstone]

The comeback is here, 100s, 200s, betas, concert leads (although I’m a bit confused on what these are? Not the same as the concert lead head I used to have)

200s looks pretty spot on to the original. Curious what the price point on these will be

Yup, confusion all over. Another marketing plan that I don't fully understand.

The "Concert Lead" powered cabs seem mildly interesting at least.

Also, a 100W Class D Beta Lead head, for 800$? I'll wait for reviews and EU pricing, but I have a strong feeling I'll pass.

Just saw the price of the 200s. $3200???? LMFAOOOOO


It was a nice idea, good luck with all that guys

I guess they want to take some doom and sludge market from Orange. Because y'know... Fender, with over $500 million in revenue, doesn't have enough of that sweet MI market already

Oh. Interesting. I missed that bit.

I agree, the tube stuff seems hideously priced, thus making it a hard pass, imho.

I don't even wanna imagine what a proper Model T reissued would cost. Yuck...

Bummer tho.

I paid $400 for my actual 200s lol.

Looks like they can still be had for under $1k even in this day and age. Hard pass

Yup. They're freaking rare over here in Europe, but sometimes do appear, and for reasonable fare - if it's not a Model T, of course, these have "Hipster Tax" pricing rules.

I'd be glad to try one. But at this price point; yikes!

Don't worry, they'll be $5k after Reverb sellers catch on to this.
