GregEL Joined: Mar 16, 2016 Posts: 217 Highland CA	Posted on Mar 18 2016 01:32 PM Dunno, I've had some chinese stuff that was decent. Priced a new Fender tank lately? $799! Got anymore information? Might be worth at least a look. Wonder what they cost... Top
killbabykill34 Joined: Apr 03, 2010 Posts: 3201 Jacksonville, AL	Posted on Mar 18 2016 01:38 PM I am only going to assume that this is the same company selling the JOYO brand. A few years ago they had their own version of the Fender Deluxe Reverb that was point to point wired. I never saw them delivered stateside though. And if this is that company, expect the price to be about 25-30% of the Fender ones. — THE KBK ... This is the last known signal.

Corey_Y Joined: Dec 30, 2015 Posts: 162 Poland, Ohio	Posted on Mar 18 2016 02:08 PM Quick image search shows this for sale on Amazon for $808.73 + $69.54 shipping. At that price it's a hard pass. I have zero opinion about the country of manufacture and all that, plenty of other countries make good gear and there's plenty of American builders making money recreating this design, so I can't see the typical IP issues really being that big a deal for anyone who'd buy one. There's a website from a company in the Philippines that shows it for what looks like around $322.54 after exchange rates to USD, but they don't have an option for international shipping or even mention of it as a possibility (even says they prefer pickup from their headquarters). So what the real best price would be seems kind of up in the air. I can't imagine it being worth paying more than what you could get a RI for, unless its aimed at a market where they're not really available at all. Which definitely isn't here. Top

And this seems to be the chinese core of the poodle! They also seem to clone orange tiny terrors and what not. Last edited: Mar 20, 2016 04:56:06 Top

You want rice with that reverb? Why? Agreed it has no mojo but It could sound better than the original just as easily. Since what everyone loved about the originals was the inconstant handmade transformers and spring units ( not to mention the 300% tolerances of the tubes). Who knows. But I wouldn't write it off until I tried one. Top

dboomer Joined: Jan 05, 2009 Posts: 262 Port Hueneme, CA	Posted on Mar 20 2016 03:59 PM They are a Contract Manufacturer. There's a very good chance those are real Peavy products. Come back tomorrow and you'll probably see real Fender products and then real Marshall ones the week after that. That's how it works. Top

Might be a while before someone owns one of each. I'd be happy to just hear the Chinese unit, but someone has to take the plunge first. I took a chance on a Joyo/White Monkey/Recycled Sound 5w Princeton type head with extras like 3/5w, bright switch, standby, DU out and a toroidal OT for $200. It is such a nice amp I built a pine cab for it... Top
MelWaldorf Joined: Mar 03, 2006 Posts: 648	Posted on Mar 21 2016 08:04 PM Looks like it's got a shorty tank, and not sure if there'd be room in the cabinet for a full size 17" pan. I'd choose a Surfy Bear over this. Top
Mike75 Joined: Jul 28, 2013 Posts: 220 Hong Kong	Posted on Mar 22 2016 03:09 PM I'm talking with a few buddies in HK about a trip up to the factory in GZ. What usually happens in China is that a overseas company will hire a factory to make a certain number of products. As part of the deal, the factory will then run off a number of their own knock off products based on the design, but changing a few words. That's why we get Calvin Klien underwear. It's done deliberately to prevent "passing off". If there is serious interest in these products let me know. — Sharawaji Records - UK Registered Record Label Dedicated To Surf, Instro, Reverb and Twang DripFeed.net - the Network for Surf Music *Join Now* Surf Rock Radio - the World’s Number 1 Surf Music Station Surf Music Radio - the World's Number 2 Surf Music Station Monstromental - Pulp Horror Instro Surf Radio Top
