Ed	Re: What is in a Sansamp original? Hi Tonecat, I had one of those, wish I keptit, they from what I have been told, it has mosfet transistors, some negative feedback to somehow bias the fets to sound good, and of course thier speakersimulation filter, maybe some resistors, caps and inductor to zero in on the speaker frequency. I would like find some info too on what exactly is going on in there, I used mine with a Roland JC120 and that was actually a pretty good sound for not having any tubes in there, might end up doing that again someday! Let me know if you find out any more on this please, and thanks! Ed
