PunkKitty Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 For some reason I've been wanting a 15 watt or so point to point amp lately. Does anyone know anything about these amps? I want to say that I first learned about them here. But my memory is fuzzy sometimes. They look like well made, hand wired amps at very good price points. http://www.tubeampfactory.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthpawGuy Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Going from memory wasn't that brand mentioned about a week ago on the HOC ? Maybe by big bob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golferwave Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 I think it was Jack Baruth who told us a while back that he owns several of their amps and recommends them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBlues was right - JB does own many of them..I had his TAF-10 for a while; Nice Amp! Especially for the price. That was a sonic machine factory That too! You had that puppy singing like a bird!

Steiner Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 You didn't say please. I can't find one either. One sold recently in Nashville for ~1100. That's less than I paid but we can talk. Perhaps a discount for guitar lessons... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps a discount for guitar lessons... Rick Hamel, the designer/builder of SMF amps (and SIB!) pedals is a local San Diego boy. He used to work for my old guitar tech back in the late '80s/early '90s, then had his shop in the back on the sadly now defunct Jeffs Guitars here in San Diego. These days he's mostly doing repair work, though the SIB! line might be betting a jumpstart via Rockett pedals. The SMFs were nice amps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steiner Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Why are the things I love so damn expensive? Let's call it Bill's Law. The higher the bill, the greater the damn thing. Of course, Bill's Law is not to be confused with Cole'slaw - cabbage in every bite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
