RG16R Amp

Post by cjj »

Do any of you Rick Amp experts know anything about the RG16R Amplifier? I noticed in the Register, there is no RG16 model listed, just an RG30.

Here are a couple of pictures, first the label showing Model RG16R:

I saw that amp on ebay ans wondered about that model also.It looks similar to the Road R-14 that I have but the cabinet of the RG16R is,I think,2 inches taller than my amp so maybe the RG16R has a bigger speaker?

I guess I should clarify my interest here. In the interest of furthering the knowledge base on all things Rick, I added this particular Amp to the register. Looking at the pictures, it seems like this is an actual model number for a Rick Amp and so, should probably be on the pick menu for model numbers.

But, since I know next to nothing about Rick Amps, and neither does Gil, we figured it would be better to ask here in the Amp forum just to verify that this is really a model that hasn't been accounted for, or if it should be classified under one of the existing models. At present, the only 'R' models available are:

RB120
RG30
Road R14

So, does anyone know?
