When I was going to college I worked at a dealer part-time who had the G.A.S. line. It was heavily promoted and sold well although I didn't care for the sound,(too strident and fatigueing). I sold a lot of the GAS Grandson amps.This was so long ago that I can't remember all the names in the line. They all had strange names. I think there was a Thalia preamp and I'm not certain but I think one of the bigger amps was called Ampzilla.Then there was Son of Ampzilla. I think they had a moving coil cartridge that was pretty good.I think it was called Black Beauty, unless that was from someone else. My memory has faded a little after 25 years and then there was about 15 years where I got away from the audio scene completely. The equipment was well built and looked nice,though.I believe GAS stood for Great American Sound Co.
Elgordo, I also owned the same things at the same time. I remember now the GAS cartridge being my favorite as well.
