I'm playing way less than I ever have before, and I have been slowly paring down gear & down selecting. Been trying to optimize & get the best out of gear that I have already, rather than chasing that next best incremental improvement. Sold off some of my gear and will be moving more. But we all know GAS sucks.
Amp wise I have been offered a trade that has me curious - wanted to solicit your guys input.
I have a shot at a CAA PT100 (the older one, not the Suhr). Looks to be in great shape. No footswitch.
I know build wise, John & CAA make (made?) great stuff.
Would it be worth replacing my ENGL Artist or Marshall 2555SL Slash with the PT100? I have heard they can be a bit flubby in the low end. I had a Suhr modded Marshall WAY back that I never should have sold (gear flipping days). Never had the flubby issue with it, and it was along the lines of an Aldrich mod. Would the PT100 get me back to that tone?
I play along the style of 80's metal (think Sykes, Norum, Aldrich, Lynch, occasionally as heavy as older Vicious Rumors). Currently have different amps for my level of heaviness I want that day - an OG Peavey 5150 2x12 combo, Marshall 2555SL Slash, ENGL fireball 25, and ENGL Artist 100.
Thanks for any input.
