Got it. The SVT Classic that is. Now, I can sell my B2RE.

Thanks John! Although it's gonna be hard to disguise it as a B2RE!!

Hey, Charly! That head should sound nearly as good as an old early 70's SVT - it was the first reissue Classic model, early 90's styling. My 3 Pro is of that era and solidly built. I was tempted but havng a 2 Pro I passed.

Maybe you can arrange to pick it up and save $100!

You were in on the musings last week, so when you showed me this one at that price, I had to snag it. I was "this" close to paying that for an SVT II llast week so, I figure newer is better! My cab says Classic so it is a GREAT match! I owe you one, beer, cigar, lunch, pleasant thoughts, something?

I just officially got goose bumps about the SVT! I never dreamed I would own one! It was only for the "big" boys!

Congrats Charlie!

Looks like you're going to be rocking the pews!

Any idea what the difference is between the B2R & the B2RE?

Watts for one thing. Let me check, I'll be right back!
