I would love to hear that combo. I have been gassing for a hollow body electric.

I was looking at the Maton BB1200 DLX. And if I ever had the money... I'd grab a PRS!

Had the semi-hollow body first. Used that to find the right amp. Come home with a RV50. They sound sweet with any guitar, but especially a semi-hollow body.

Enjoy!

Do it! Have you been able to play the maton? I have a MS2000dlx (solidbody one) I seriosly rate it up there with gibsons and PRSs so it may be all you ever need!

try the carvin. it is a true beauty. very high quality; a wonderful instrument.

coupled with the orange tv50 it creates a dog fight. bring a pistol.

First: what the heck does that even mean? I don't want my sound (or especially my amps or guitars for that matter) to make the area surrounding them to smell like bull piss.

Second: I agree that Orange and a nice fat hollowbody or semi-hollow makes for some sweet tones! I have a Gretsch White Falson, a Gibson Dot, and a thinline tele-parts-caster w/ mini humbuckers that just sound fantastic through my Orange.

Yah! I get a huge sound with my TT on 15, all knobs at 2PM, and my Carlo Robelli 335 copy. I have aftermarket pups from the Stewart McDonald catalog in there and that ax just smokes. Love my Hollowbody!!
Lost in the spacey reverb of the Rockerverb.......SOMEBODY GET ME OUTTA HERE!!
