There is vintage digital sound And modern digital sound
Neither are better than ANY tube amp w/some analog pedals if needed.
But anything anyone can make functional if affordable, they’re going to justify tonally once purchased. Me included. FM3 foh and one guitar. Tempting. Every time. Amps...
-Vintage: C+ SRG
As said, does what I’ve needed and tried for since my tonal and aural eggtooth scratched it. Being a one channel, plug straight in player, all I need and want.
-Modern: Mark5 tie with JP2C+
both do everything needed functionally and tonally for me. Both have gig friendly...
Agree. As said, ANY m2-3-5-jp will get you 90% “there”. Hands are the last part really after you narrow guitar/pups/wire/amp xan and speakers. And of course ears. Add some eq or not ??♂️
Killer amps. All very very fun to play and own. Any Mark amp I’ve tasted really.
Finding a C+ is an adventure alone, playing one is akin to harnessing a Unicorn. Not easily ridden, not easy to conquer or wrangle and hide behind at all. You’ll be out front and EVERY arrow you sling WILL be heard, and felt. Whether they hit the mark or not depends on you as the player.
Hence...
What's your version of the kickin super bowl halftime concert/show fiesta that the NFL doesnt really NEED to do?
Loud amps showed up.
What's your contribution?
I don't see the same complaint. 25 years ago. Yeah.
Now. To be expected. Polished. And perfectly delivered and packaged.
It was also REALLY fuggin good man!
There's been some REAL weak ones.
This one...come on man, all it needed was the 'Pac hologram to be completely off the chain.
What. 6...
"Ooooh a white JVM410H!!!"
The rest of them stringed instruments were killer looking as well. Anything that furthers guitar, kids buying gear and devoting themselves to rock and music is a win in muh book.
For the rap loving kid in me that grew up loving the rap movement... I thought it was...
