Thundergod Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 21 bids already? I bet it sells at least for twice the current price. Nice find! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californiaman Posted March 18, 2009 Author Share Posted March 18, 2009 I would hope that it does. I paid $374.00 out the door for mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluemoon Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 I never realized they had point-to-point wiring. Why did Gibson stop producing them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Californiaman Posted March 18, 2009 Author Share Posted March 18, 2009 I believe it was the sticker shock everybody experienced when they first came out. Some retail stores were asking as much as $800.00. I saw a used, floor model for $650.00 before I found mine. They're awesome little amps. I just got off mine. Been playing the Telecaster through it all morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riffster Posted March 18, 2009 Share Posted March 18, 2009 Does point to point wiring make that much of difference in tone/sound quality? It is not the point to point that makes the difference it is the quality of the components, those GA-5s are built by Mojo and they use good stuff. Point to point is a bit messy since you do not have a turret board. But this amp circuit is so basic that the point to point makes sense. No way i would ever buy a point to point amp that had a more complex circuit. EDIT: actually the GA-5 does have a turret board, it is NOT point to point...handmade, yes.
