It is what it is. If you look at the Egnater forum, the complaints are no worse than that on the Fender forum abut the HRD series amps. I also have an earlier Rebel 20 and the amp has been fabulous. Bruce Egnater was talking about bringing production back to the States because of quality issues. I think Classic Tone trannies are a great option for replacement. I have them in my 5e3 clone. I have a friend with a Marshall 18 watt hand wired Combo that went through three power and an output tranny all in a year. It's still the luck of the draw.

Lou has an early HRdlx that he loves. He's done some things to it to make it more reliable. His is American made, mine was from Mexico. The solder used today has a huge impact on any amps. I build my own gear now. Amps, effects and now some of my guitars. Made in America by an American. If it fails, it's my own fault. :lol: So far, about eight months on my 5e3 and two years on my true PTP build. Both have been rock solid. I'm build true point to point effect pedals now. No circuit boards, just a few terminal strips. I like old school building techniques.

Egnater's customer service needs serious improvement as his company grows. He monitors the Egnater forum personally and tries to solve problems. He's a great person who's company has grown way too fast for him to handle.

I have backup gear as any gigging musician should have. I am not a casual stay at home player. My gear needs to work.
