    My friend got a call from his great aunt, she said "Jimi I found something in the attic, it belonged to your late cousin.

    It says, "Gibson" on the case. Your mom said I should give you a call. (!!!!!!)

    It was this BR-9 set. He doesn't play the lap steel much, but he says the amp is hands down his favorite. (he owns five amps and two of them are 70's Fenders)

    BR-9's are nice little amps. What your friend is probably responding to the most is the combination of a single-ended amp circuit with a vintage Alnico speaker. Compared to most modern amps, the sound is very immediate and present.

    But of course, the coolest part of that story is that your friend's name is Jimi. LOL. - JC

NEW FEATURE: Click on the title of the CL Listing inside my post to LINK thru to the original Post. If the original CL listing is deleted the item most likely is no longer available.

Please don't call, contact, bother or harass these sellers long after their post is expired. Take for granted if the listing is over 30 days old that the guitar or amp is LONG GONE! Thank you.
