Hey guys.. good news bad news.. and just uhhh. news.. Ok, first off, I wanna thank all of you guys for the GREAT info on Kustoms. I've learned ALOT. Good News: I still have my Black tNr K100B, I will NEVER get rid of it.. My guitar player has a 200watt Kustom PA with 2 4x10's and 2 4x12's(I think, lol) blue sparkle cool as hell. He's looking for a vintage guitar amp and cab.. drop me an email if you know of any. I intend to continue looking and purchasing any kustoms I can find around. Bad News: I've been looking for quite a while and because of the new popularity of the vintage kustoms and the new priciness of them, I decided to buy a brand new K400B off of ebay :D I ordered it yesterday and hope to have it this week.. I got the 2x15 and 4x10 cabs Red Sparkle. Does anyone own any of the newer TuckNRolls that kustom put out a few years ago? Any feelings on them?

my momma always says...if ya can't say anything good 'bout someone... actually that's not fair to you...I've never had a chance to actually play and even see the new kustom rigs in person cause none of the local stores would pick them up. I"ve heard from others...but you'll have to decide for yourself. I was actually so thrilled when the new kustom company came out with the tuck n roll I wrote, called, anything I could do to encourage them, but what I found at the other end was a company that really didn't have time for this ol boy and they blew me off so badly that I swore I'd never spend money with them...course now the rigs are in second sales hands as kustom has apparently given up on the market..a real shame all around. Ireally hope you enjoy your new rigs and that they perform well for you...you will certainly look cool up there with all that red sparkle!! Play Loud...ET!

Perhaps I was too opinionated..... Just as long as you have red tuck, you are cool. Wait a minute, I don't have any red..... darn it!!! :-)

I can honestly say I have never heard one of the "new Kustoms". I can also honestly say the ones in the local store do not work. I have a friend who has a 50 watt head and 2x12 cabinet and likes it.....but it has blown up once already. The one opportunity I had to hear it....it was in the shop! I received email from a guy who bought one recently and a switch broke on it the day he received it. He has since sold it and bought vintage 200s. I have had NO experience with them....but I have heard more bad than good! It is a shame...I know Kustom had high hopes for that line...I did too.....and it seemed they had no good luck in the entire project! I hope you have good luck with yours! As I have said many times, "Ask me again in 30 years and I can make a fair comparison!" BC
