Dave Dombroski of "The Brightwings"
A review of his BA70

"Got the amp today...Swampy, fat and very responsive.   I turn my volume down on my
guitar and it cleans right up! The tremolo is so damn thick!  No pedal could ever touch it!
Man...it sounded good playing in the house but this is a live amp!  I ran the volume at about
half way with a light boost pedal...amazing... it sounds Voxy and I'm loving it!!  Great
smooth mid range and smooth top end that's not harsh...very even sounding with the 15"
speaker...Oh, and by the way, I was getting all this with a Strat!  The tremolo once again is
so warm it rattles the whole damn amp!!  Its really something else the way the tremelo
sounds...I've never heard a better one.  The colors are great too!

I could have easily written you a one word review instead...........WOW!!!
Thanks, You've really got something here."

Here is an mp3 of a solo clip by The Brightwings
using the BA70, Stratocaster w Fralin '54 pickups and Eternity Drive Lovepedal.




Here is a
youtube clip featuring the BA70 for the electric guitars.  
The BA70 can been seen to the right of the guitar player with the red strat near the end of the
video (~ 4:14).   
"Here is a Tennesse Whiskey with my buddies '58 original strat STRAIGHT INTO your amp!!
solo is at 3:03. all the little NON slide licks during the song are me with the BA70 as well."
~Dave Dombroski


FYI...Dave's amp is a one off custom style GA70 style amp with an added tremelo circuit.  
Both BA70 model amps that are offered are currently not featuring the tremelo circuit as a
standard set up.
