Happy With Kustom [message #1263] Thu, 31 January 2002 18:26 Anonymous Hello, I haven't posted here before, but I just wanted to say thanks for all the useful info on the Webboard. Whoever left the post for the repair shop in Arlington Heights IL thanks! I have a Cascade Kustom 100 with a matching 1-15" bottom which I use as a bass rig. I've gigged with it for about 9 months. It's great. I always hear other bands talking about it. Now only if I could convince my guitar player to get a matching Cascade amp, we would rule the world. -Steve Litos Report message to a moderator

Re: Happy With Kustom [message #1268 is a reply to message #1267] Sat, 02 February 2002 14:16 Anonymous Steve, glad to see you jump on board. I sold all my marshalls a few years back when I started collecting and playing kustoms again. The best comment I have heard while playing my silver K50 besides it's the best sounding amp they have ever heard was one kid asked me where did I get that neat marshmellow amp. Hey style and sound never go out of date. I have a cascade 100 with the 212 cabinet loaded with celestions. That's a nice sounding combination. The bass player in my band just bought a black 100 with a 115 altec cabinet from me and loves it. The other guitar player kids us for using kustoms, and last night his peavey blew up during a sound check. I just told him the problem was his amp is not 30 years old. I'll take a charcoal K50 for him to use tonight. Keep us up to date on the conversion of your guitar player. Don Report message to a moderator

Re: Happy With Kustom/Other Close Calls [message #1286 is a reply to message #1268] Wed, 13 February 2002 17:17 Anonymous Hey JC, I'm playing at the Double Door in Chicago on Wed, March 13th. The band is called Meringue. I'm not sure about the time slot. I think 9pm. I'll be playing the Cascade Kustom. Actually, when I was 18 and first started playing guitar(& I didn't know s**t about amps or guitars or even how to play) I had a perfect opportunity to buy a beatiful blue sparkle Kustom 50 combo amp at a pawn shop. $99.00 was alot to a student that didn't have any money so I waited. By the time I went back a few days later, the Kustom 50 was "Gone With The Wind". Later I was influenced by the rest of the human race that "solid state=bad". So I bought an Ampeg V-4B and didn't think about Kustom for a while until I saw John Fogerty live in concert. -Steve Report message to a moderator
