I know he didn't like it. But funny thing is that he can be seen in photographs playing them. Was he just posing with the amps? The Paranoid video has them playing them but they were supplied backline on a German TV show IIRC. Iommi was all about Klipps... TBH, I reckon he could play through an Arg...

I use a 50W.

Mostly through a PA but a lot of times on it's own.

No volume issues and it has never been much past 1/2 way on the dial.

I saw Sleep play in Manchester UK in 1993.

I yearned for one since.

Being youg with a family prevented me owning for a while.... But now it's playtime.

What band are you in?

Well I think I was being constructive, ah well.

Iommi also played H&H. And I seen a pic of him somewhere playing a Sunn.

I play a RV50H and I have to say you can really drive it and get modern sounds, I use no distortion or fuzz etc just the Orange "dirty" channel and I get "modern" voicings. With a 100W or above you might struggle to get the best out of the amp. I always play places with good PA and get mic'd up and ...

If I couldn't get an Orange cab I would go for the Marshall.
