I guess I am being called out..... Yes, I have a tiny terror... Yes it kick Ass No it does not have mutliple eq knobs No it does not have reverb... Having said that, I own a 72 fender super reverb which DOTS will tell you is in almost new shape and I will gig the orange over it in most cases. Also (...

Personally I am an overdive whore. I use: SIB Varidrive (heavy tube driven) Voodoo Lab Sparkle Drive (clean Boost) Modded Blues Drive (slight dirt on clean) and either a mxr Wylde overdrive or an older Tubescreamer for somewhere in between the SIB and Bl Dr. I don't get into distortion because the I...

I personally find that alot of times you have to tweak you pedals just based upon room sound, crowd size, etc..... Particularly delays and such. Sometimes just a little reverb is good,. sometimes more.... You know the drill.... I always thouht those systems were interesting, and if you have 3 tech g...

I always thought the G Major system (i think it is called) was cool.... But it is like $1500...Basically unlimited amp selection, effects, patches, and can even control all of your stomp boxes which can then be rack mounted in a rack drawer.... That said, I don't think I would spend 1500 to make my ...

They will not stay crystal clear at full volume.... But I turn my gain off, and my volume at full....Then walk my gain up to where I need it for a show. That is usually less than 3 on the amp and is plenty loud for most needs. At that volume, it is very responsive to attack and pickup volume, etc. I...

If you got the time and gear.....Biamp kicks ass. The last show we did as a band, I used my Taylor t-5 and split the acoustic send to the PA and the electric send to my guitar rig....Then sent the guitar rig to an tuner and an A/B box.....Side one went to my board with a sparkle drive, modded blues ...

I misread your post.....The clips all sound good, the clean sounds are definitely similiar to the orange...Particularly the clean with a little breakup... Although I love the heavier overdrive on the thing, I usually use pedals for that so I don't have to mess around too much on stage adjusting ever...

I agree. I picked it up for like $200 used as a backup for the super. I never really intended to use it for anything really. Now that I got THE TERROR...... All is good..... I actually find myself playing the orange more than the super alot of times.

In the end it was kind of a mute point as I sold the amp today. With the super reverb, tiny terror and crate powerblock I am covered for about anything. Hell, if neccessary, I have tube gear in my PA rack that I could run a guitar into (and do often for my acoustic)
