[TenTec] Amplifiers

[Jim Brown]

That's a very nice amp, Ron, and Bill's a great guy -- we've been 
friends for more than 30 years. I'd grab it! I bought his Titan, and it 
has served me well. And a used Titan is the other amp I would 
recommend.  Expect to pay something like $1,500 for one in great shape 
with good tubes.
