So, the Plexi channel really isn't my thing, (great for cleanish/a little break-up).. It really needs some volume, very much like an SLP..
But, holy shit-balls, the BE Channel is spot on for my tastes. Its everything I wanted the Runt to be, and then some. Gain-wise, it's maybe a touch more than the Runt, but you hear that extra $1000 more, for sure. WAY more dynamic, WAY more beef, and lead tones are just plain sick. I run an Exotic EP into my MXR M-77 into the front end, and with the Fishman Fluence Moderns in my Schecter, it's pretty sick. Harmonics galore, sustains for days. I had to sort through a bad preamp tube when I got it, but fixed that and biased in a pair of JJ 6CA7's, I was lost for hours. So inspiring, raw, and beautiful tones. I just kept smiling, and telling myself, "goddamn that sounds good". Next thing I know, 4 hours went by.
I wish Dave would make a single channel head with that gain channel. It's perfection.
