Special 130 with only channel one working. Otherwise fine. Channel one loud and clear. Foot switch comes with it.
$125.00 + shipping. Conus.


Looks like a scorpion to me. I'm not sure.

Correction,
It is the lo input that does not work. Both channels work as they should. They switch back and forth as they should. The Hi input only works. The reverb works. The price should be at least $150.00. It's a bargain at $125.00 + shipping. I played it most of the morning. If I knew how to delete the post, I would !
Thank you.

Let me just say this. My Nashville 112 recently went on the blink. I started using a Special 130 about 3 weeks ago, and this is really a great amp for steel. Once I figured out how to set the mid range shift, it's perfect. Lots of headroom. My tone never sounded better. And, it has 300 watts. WHAT? I'll be using this from now on. Tommy.....

Not to be a wet blanket but the Special 130 is 130 watts on a 4ohm load.

That sounds more like it, but it says 300 watts on the back label. ??? Tommy......

Tommy look where the speaker connection is. I think the 300 watts has to do with power usage.

Ah Haaa ! It's still the best amp for steel. I have a Nashville 400 and I have an Evans. I also have a Boss Katana, but the Special 130 is what I'll be using, probably from now on. It sounds great. Thanks, Tommy.....

I think the 130 sounds good with just about anything based on my use with S~B's. An overlooked amp for steel.

Maybe I found the right combination. I'm using it with my old trusty Emmons push/pull's. Smile Tommy.....
