Always appreciate your kind words lol, it is THE town to be guitarded in for sure! I don’t know of any other city in America where there is a 3 week wait at all techs just to get a setup done 🤣

I miss gettiing a schooling at every blues jam but truthfully last time I checked the printer's alley jam for jam night footage it seemed like a bunch of dudes that play other stuff getting together instead of actual blues players getting together to make music. Still, I miss being able to buy golden gate thumbpicks down at my LGS. You won't find that anywhere but Nashville.

i do not frequent broadway area at all so couldn't tell you whats going on down there. its nashville so there are always incredible guitarists around but yea overall the focus of the music has shifted to what i would best define as country-rap/pop. the focus on actual guitar playing is really not there so unless you're lookin for super underground stuff, there's just not much money in it (as much as there used to be anyway) the way i see it.

you can still see incredible old school musicians like the crew of the Time Jumpers on 3rd and Lindsley every Monday night but its a dying art...

@Yehuda and @Techdeth and whoever else owns the trifecta need to do comparisons of the Hermansson, HR, and Larry.

I have a switcher coming in soon- and there’s someone else who I know has more of each to add to the comparison

I have deep switch to deep, punch knob cranked,mid switch to high mid, tightness to the highest as well as the tightness switch, gain at 6.5, hair switch to hair, more mids on the dark/more mids switch, and middle setting on the shimmering/full range switch, and presence at 9- I haven’t tweaked a ton yet though

Perfect, thank you so much, I’m gonna give this combo a try.

Looking forward to see what settings you end up liking!

Everytime I come up with a combo I like, I flip a switch and get lost all over again 🤣🤣🤣

I don't want to be negative but it sounds like a Fortin Blade into my 2204 with the lows all cut on the pedal.

Yeah it’s too versatile haha- too many good options😅

Yea dude, I mostly stick to simple amps and this is probably the most complicated one I’ve ever owned

How does it compare to your Larry?
 
Yehuda said:
Larry is similarly fast and almost as tight but less dry if that makes sense? They aren’t sooo far apart

Now that makes me very happy to hear, close enough for government work!

Appreciate all your insight man! Looking forward to hearing what other settings you end up liking!!

I’ll get the settings in a second, but the pickups are lundgren m6- my number one all time pickups so far

If I used passives that’s what I’d use. Only played a guitar with them once but remember really liking them.

I'm listening on an AKG K271 Mk2. Sounds fine to me.

Yeah, I didn't want it to sound negative. I actually really like a Fortin Blade into a 2204.

I guess I'm not sold on all modded amps vs just boosting them.

I have a Monomyth modded 1987x that I love. I haven't owned a normal 1987x to boost but I would love to compare.

The video does sound good.
