What is Sunn's claim to fame? They're one of the only cult brands I have zero experience with other than that band Sunn))) but they suck balls.

Can someone give me some examples of good Sunn tone?

A cranked Sunn yields a distortion you will either love or hate. Like spawn said, they are loud and very clean (to a point of course), which makes them excellent as a pedal platform. That's how I use mine, and I like to think I have good toanz I think most sunn's of this era used ultralinear transformers which has a certain characteristic in the toanz.

The general consensus seems like their bass amps are beloved while their guitar amps, not so much loved.

Ah I gotcha. Definitely not hating on the brand, only the band that ripped off their logo

I'll check out some clips

Ah yeah, that sounds heavy af. Really works well with the Muff in that video. I assume it was stupid loud?

Leslie West used sunn as well, but he used a Sunn PA head.

Surprisingly not all that loud in that video if I recall. But it just got better the further up you went. Sweet amps for that sort of thing
