I have had the amp for 3 days now, but the 2nd day I did not get to play. So today is my 2nd day getting to play through the amp.

I haven't really had time to the amp myself, I actually just plugged it in both days and made videos.

This is actually good, when making videos I am constantly tweaking and explaining my amp settings so I am learning the amp at the same time.
I would say I have had about 45 minutes to an hour of playing time through the amp.

The first day was just the amp by itself, learning all the controls and tones.

Today I got to try the amp over two backing tracks, one was blues and I was able to run the settings from clean to all out gain by the end.
The other was a hard rock backing track and it was all on varying degrees of the highest gain setting.

After two days I think I can say this is my favorite amp.
My Friedman Little Sister Combo is still great and not going anywhere, but the Pink Taco V2 has that extra gear, that high gain that the Little Sister doesn't even get with a boost, close, but not all the way there.

The Pink Taco V2 truly needs no distortion or overdrive pedal.
Just throw a delay/reverb in the loop and call it a day.
I love high gain, but I also love the flexibility to do low gain and cleans, the Pink Taco V2 does it all.

So does the Little Sister, just not quite as high gain.

Either amp could be my only amp, but the Pink Taco V2 would be my 1st choice for me.
