I play anywhere from 2-4 gigs a week,3 sets a night,plus work a full time job..anyone who thinks an amps weight doesnt matter simply doesnt play enough for it to matter..try loading this amp,2 guitars,pedalboard,mic and stands up stairs or through crowds of people ,up onto sometimes high stages..then unload it all at 3 in the morning,get up at 7am,work all day and do it again the next night..I dont care how big or strong you are..youre gonna be hurtin..when I was playing once every few months Id bring a half stack,no problem..maybe some of you should think before you write...

are there really people out there who would not buy a great sounding instrument because of weight? i mean, loading and unloading takes up all but 7.5 minutes of one's night at a gig! if you are that damn feeble, get a fan to help! if you suck and have no fans, pay some drunk at the pub a couple bucks to help! come on! it is not like you have to strap the damn thing to your back for 5 hours. jeez!

I just got the Ruby Riot II -- and this amp is NOT 90 lbs. Less than a standard AC30 or my marshall Bluesbreaker (about 75-80lbs). Great amp -- awesome cleans, nice gain channel.

Better a fatass than a fathead.Look,90 lbs is a lot to lug around HOWEVER,if you like the amp,then find a way to move it,like a dolly or a cart,or you could ask Captain America to carry it for you.Judging from his comments it would be the perfect match to his academic skills.BTW,the amp sounded good .Now if you will excuse me I'm off to buy a burger.YUMMMMMMMMMM.

Before we proceed to name-calling ad nauseum, I echo Jim's COMMENT. It did not sound like a complaint. My favourite amp for live and studio is a UK AC30 @88 lbs. I have had 5 back operations and I admit to considering amp weight in the decision in my amp purchases. God bless Mr. Clayton's good health; may he add a bit of compassion and understanding in 2009. Also, I am not a "fatass" in case he's wondering. I can safely lift all but 2 of my amps...

90 lbs? how much do you want it to weigh? if they use different components, you think it might affect the sound? go pick up a fender twin reverb.

I almost bought one of these. Gorgeous clean tones and rip your face off high gain. The two Celestion speakers are somewhat multi-directional giving the sound a unique depth of field. The reverb and tremolo are world-class. The only problem is the weight. It's close to 90 lbs. A great amp if you have a strong back.
