Members guitarbilly74 Posted June 24, 2008 Members Share Posted June 24, 2008 This amp sounds too stiff for my taste, I can't get a good fluis lead tone for it... yeah I tried tubes speakers blah blah.. it's not a bad amp and it's great for metal and shred but that's not what I am doing... it's going on sale as soon as I receive the footswitch that I bought on ebay 3 WEEKS AGO and have not received yet anybody has anything they'd like to trade let me know..

Members guitarbilly74 Posted June 24, 2008 Author Members Share Posted June 24, 2008 Honestly, I REALLY like the crunch channel. It's really the best tone on this amp and it sounds great, I could definitely use that but then I'd still need another amp for cleans and the whole idea of buying this amp was to downsize from my previous 2-amp set up.

So do you just want 2 channels...no effects/loop? I bet a H&K Duotone or Koch Twintone would suit you very well. Don;t discount the DSL either.

Don;t discount the DSL either. I have a DSL50... I really like it. I want that tone in a combo with a good clean channel and a fx loop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members guitarbilly74 Posted June 24, 2008 Author Members Share Posted June 24, 2008 Yeah the Stiletto is on my "must try" list. I also want to try the Carvin Legacy...

I thought it sounded like ass, til the owner of the mom/pop store I was testing it at came into the amp room and closed the glass door and said "put it on 4". Wow. Sounded awesome. Loud. As. {censored}. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ErikHoppy Posted June 24, 2008 Members Share Posted June 24, 2008 I feel the same exact way about my 5150 Combo. I tried recording guitars for my bands EP this weekend, and couldn't get a decent tone out of it. Probably the speakers, as there was a nasty high pitched gain thing going on that I just could not get rid of. In anycase, I've been trying to sell mine for like a month, with no takers...I guess I'm gonna get the shaft on re-sale on this thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members marshallnoise Posted June 24, 2008 Members Share Posted June 24, 2008 Stilletto (sp?) is a cool amp Bill. But, it does need to be CRANKED!!! Otherwise it is typical blah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
