graham1945 Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Hi, does anyone know who are UK stockists of SWR amps, who actually hold stock? I'm after an amplite. Thanks Graham Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musicman20 Posted May 13, 2013 Share Posted May 13, 2013 Hi Graham I'd act fast as apparently they are going to be shut down soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
graham1945 Posted May 13, 2013 Author Share Posted May 13, 2013 Thanks, the dealer or SWR? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland Rock Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 http://www.mansons.co.uk/categories/swr-bass-amps-138 Not heard about Fender winding up the brand, but you could ask Mansons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Musicman20 Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 [quote name='Roland Rock' timestamp='1368521822' post='2077882'] Not heard about Fender winding up the brand, but you could ask Mansons [/quote] Apparently its due the end of 2013, along with (quite stupidly) Genz Benz. However, word on the street is that the Genz chaps will be working on new lightweight amps with Fender, (so basically re-branding the line).

Roland Rock Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Cheers for the info. I'm not so surprised by SWR, as they seem to have gone out of fashion a bit (also, I'm not a fan, as I didn't like the one I had) But Genz Benz? Very surprising, as I thought they were doing really well. Ah well, glad I got the Streamliner when I did, and look forward to seeing the new stuff next year :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EBS_freak Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 I'm hoping that Genz doesn't get pushed into the "Fender" name. Fender have never been known for their bass amps... ...and rightly or wrongly, I wouldn't want to buy a "Fender" bass amp. Guitar amps - yes, by the bucketload... bass no.

AndyTravis Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Yeah, I'd heard Fender are wrapping SWR like they have with Hamer and Tacoma. And the Genz Benz stuff was going dirt cheap while I was skint. Grr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
