I don't think I liked what the clarity mod did to the 6505. I've played a stock 6505 at the store and I liked it much more. I still prefer the 6505+ though. Can't really say why other than I thought the 6505+ sounded killer when I played it with a Bad Monkey and my EMG loaded MH-1000. Almost as good as my Ubershall - just didn't have the same knock you on your ass wall of sound that the Uber does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
