Rowland is one of my favorite transistor amps, and I would normally choose it over almost any other brand you could have thought of, in this case though you mentioned my favorite transistor amp, Gryphon.

They are solidly built, offer reliable service. The bigger models have a lot of punch, are good in the bottom octave and have nice highs, with only just a very slight tad of grain.( You could not mistake them for tube amps ) They offer a fair holographic soundspace and the midrange is uncoloured, straight and clean. They do not have, on the other hand, the speed, the ease, the lightening fast transient response of the big Spectrals, nor their naturalness. Cheers,
