Uh oh. Guess what I just bought.

Mint Mica TOL 100 head.



I'm as giddy as a school girl. This partially makes up for the lameness of missing that Natec Auction.

 

[jlbaxe]

Therapy shopping huh?

 

[guitarslinger]

I thoguht more people would respond to this.

BTW, Vai used one like this back during fire garden/

Also, it's TOUGH to find pics of the TOL 100 out on the net. Bc I had "WTB: Egnater Mica TOL 100" in my sig, google image search is tainted with crap i've posted in forums.

It's a killer sounding amp...but I think you have it covered with the M4/IE4 already?

psh, it can never be "covered"


When I bought my M4, I was thinking "Well, I guess I can sell my IE4."

Boy, am I glad I held onto the IE4. It's totally unique and amazing.

Dude...CONGRATS 100% man. Sorry I didn't get back to your text, but I was in the middle of a datacenter w/o cell service, and just got it now while reading this.

Dude...We totally got to get the "Egnater fest" going soon...either at my house...or at Amp Lounge!!!

I saw this on his rig when I first discovered Egnater. I figured If Vai used it it must be great tone wise.

Congrats! Great amp!

That is probably the amp I regret selling the most. Someday, I will own another.

I think I should go pick it up today.

I probably would If I could find one. Not too common and seems like most guys want a fortune for them.

I'm sure I'll stumble on one sooner or later that I can't resist.....Never fails.

I put out a WTB @ TGP. Some guy told me Buddy Rogers had one in Cinci. Mint, like new.

Tony said $1450, I said why not?

Thats good if it's mint. I've seen them for $1800 and up and they weren't mint.

Your a lucky man

How much does that bad boy weigh? I would love to buy one.

You know, it is not that bad for a 100 watt head. I want to say mine is about 40 pounds or a little under.

GuitarSlinger - Congrats on the MICA...you are going to love that thing! I have an old silver IE-4, an M-4, and an RT-2/50, which are all great. But there is really something special about the MICA. I got mine at a local live auction a few years ago in mint condition and it's definitely become my favorite amp.

+1 I discovered Egnater by hearing Vai used a TOL100. He only used it on tour though right?

I've seen pictures of a TOL100 in his studio, FWIW. His head was on eBay a few years ago and I bid on it but lost out in the last minute. Someone spent a pretty penny for that amp.

So Vai had it on top of his Bogner xtc, to get TONES the Bogner couldnt? to compliment the Bogner? Bet it was for Ch3 and 4.

That, and Egnaters sound better than Bogners.



In all seriousness, Bogners sound very good, better than most amps, BUT...................I'll take my IE4 over my Fish 98% of the time.
