Looks like both and LBX II and LBX S are on sale for 549.

For those who are wondering:

The LBX I featured two distortion channels ("crunch" and "burn") with no clean channel. The "burn" channel is killer!

The LBX II featured one distortion channel that was a blend of the crunch and burn channels from the LBX I and a clean channel.

The LBX S features the "burn" channel from the LBX I and a clean channel. IMO, this is the best version of this amp made yet, and I say that as an owner of the original LBX I. Killer amp at this price!

I was wondering why a preamp would have any significant power at all — but this is for guitar (or other instrument ) players — so it's not for listening to recorded music.
The point of the preamp is to amplify the signal...lol

🤣 I wish I could downvote you twice. That was a ridiculous comment. Everyone but you knows this is for guitars to plug into an amp cabinet.

Only electric guitar. Also, you need a speaker cabinet to go together with them.

This is a good deal.

I have the 50 Watt combo version and plug it into the EVH 4x12 cab…best of both worlds…portability, 4x12 and I have the attenuator on the combo that this head doesn't have. Great amp though!!!

Damn… I just got a 5153 Stealth 50W for 1413.01 after tax from Musicians Friend. Should I return it? Thoughts on the 6L6 vs Stealth?

There are YouTube videos comparing the two heads. You just have to find one that isn't in drop C tuning with the gain at 100%. In my opinion, the stealth isn't worth $500+ more than this amp. I think Wolfgang uses the 6L6. Ed used the 100 watt version of this amp on the 07-08 tour and used the stealth on the 2015 tour. Not sure which he used in 2012. This 50 watt 6L6 was also used on the song "Tattoo."

The stealth has a silly amount of gain on tap...to the point where its kinda unessessary. I'd 100% take this at almost half the price

Alot less fizzy...significantly much more refined (and much better clean)

The old block letters where a buzzy mess stock, after some simple mod work they sound amazing though
