Hello to everybody,

I just received my ceriatone plexi 50 bass 1986 model.
What I can say right now after 2 days of playing:
IT SOUND FANTASTIC.
It sound very loud (as loud as my old 1965 jtm45/100 w).
The sound is similar to my jtm45 (bluesy sound) with volume from 1 to 4 (I can play with volume on 3 with my band) and after it sound very different:
more fine distorsion : vol from 4 to 6  CREAM (clapton), FREE, LED ZEP sound
                                   vol from 7  too much distorsion for me EVH

I can't play with volume from 4/5, it's too loud, even with my band.
but....I have THE Ho's attenuator. I can play at wich volume I want with a great sound.
I have tried the 1986 on a 1966/67 tall marshall cabinet (with 4 greenbacks prerola): the best sound, creamy and smooth (rock, blues, hard rock and ...jazz)
and on a poor old cabinet (bad wood building) I have to change (perhaps with a ZILLACAB from UK) with 2 greenbacks prerola. It sound great too but more clear and trebble than the tall cabinet.

I have not yet explore all sound (I'm beginning to find one of my favorite sound: duane allman fillmore sound !!!), but at this time I can say it's one of the greatest amp I have (old fender, ampeg, marshall...).

Hello grizztone,

I'm a Duane Allman fan too and I just ordered a ceriatone plexi 50 1986 to nik. I should receive it at the end of september. I will tell you about this amp.
A friend of mine had tried the Skydog amp and he said it sound fantastic.
The skydog amp is 99 % a ceriatone plexi50 1986 with PPIMV and inserted bridge channel.

Bye
