Can I tempt you to ship it to the UK? I know it would cost more which I've happily pay for, there are just so few heads in the UK

Thanks everyone. In summary, buy a Lonestar!! I'm just about the get a double pay check this month as i mvoe from self employed to employed status, so I think I can justify it :) Still high prices over here in the UK are painful, even used. Found 2 1x12s though, having owned the 2x12 and...

If that terrible day came and all Lonestars became extinct, what amp would you turn to instead? I'm totally taken with the demos I've heard, andy Timmons especially so really want one but it's a big outlay and I want to make sure I've done my research properly!

Sorry to resurect an older thread but thought this might be useful for reference http://andytimmons.com/ATBBBS/viewtopic.php?t=654&highlight=compressor

To be honest, I do like my current amp with the BB preamp for that thick lead tone. Doens't stop the GAS for a new amp, but money procludes me. I suppose my question is more broad than oringially asked, and it's more like "what makes the LSC so warm"??

What would you play? Don't get me wrong, the Lonestar Classic tone is what I want and I'd love to be able to afford it but the cost in the UK is so high, I really can't justify it. So, is there anything in your travels that you've come across that made you say "wow! that's an awful lot like my...

Drummer safe? That's a good case! :mrgreen:

Not an entirely on topic post, but I use both currently and plan to do so once I get an LSC. The RC is always on for me, really nice thickening to the sound without messing with the original signal. And the BB is on my board for that Andy Timmons video alone(!), it's got plenty of gain on tap...

I am persuaded, but now got to pay for a wedding so the expense might have to wait! Stick it on the wedding list?!

A trolley is a good idea, might have a look at those. That does mean I could get one of the plentiful 2x12 LSCs around rather than waiting for ahead to come around but gotta find the money for the Lonestar is self first though!

Wow, thanks for all the replies - you clearly feel my pain! I am currently looking for a head but they seem scarce in the UK (lots of 2x12s on the bay but no heads) and the full price is a little too rich for me at the mo. Does anyone have actual weights of all the options - LSC head, LSC...

GBPHow do you guys do it?! I owned a 2x12 LSC briefly but couldn't cope with the weight (and felt guilty about the outlay at the time). Now I'm thinking of getting an LSC again, I'm worried that I won't like the weight. I currently play a 1x12 Zinky Blue Velvet which weights 45 lbs. Along...

I'm no expert, but both are great amps. What style of music do you play and on what sort of guitars? I believe the general opinion is LSC for Humbuckers, LSS for single coils but YMMV. Any chance of getting both / getting one and being able to trade for other if you don't like it? Whats...

Another vote for the RC Booster - I got one last week and at this weeks band practice had it on all the time. It relaly thickened up my clean tone without really changing it, and I got "great sound" comments from people that would never say something like that! Check it out -alongside the BB...

Head or combo, new or old variant (head preferred) That's about it, let me know what you've got!!

Anyone thinking of selling a Lonestar Classic head in the UK? Don't mind too much if it's the 10/50/100 or the 50/100 model. Head is the only real option, combo if the price is good. Dollar exchange rate makes importing expensive, so wondering what the locals have got lying around ;)

Would you ship to UK? Clearly I'd pay the extra shipping fees

Hey guys I'm no expert at all at what makes an amp "go", or more importantly what makes it "stop" (!) so I hope you can give me some guidance? A friend of mine has a Mesa Boogie Stilleto Deuce head, bought on the bay and played briefly before a valve went which triggered the main fuse to go...

Have those amp settings disappeared deliberately or just been moved to make some space on your photobucket account? Cos I'd absolutely love to see them!!!

Looks absolutely killer! How comfy is it to play on a strap?
