HBE OR BE?

IF YOU HAD TO CHOOSE JUST ONE OF THESE MODS, WHICH ONE AND WHY? TRYING TO GET SOME INPUT! THANKS.

I'm getting both.

If you get the BE you should get the C45, they are peanut butter and jelly IMO....and I have one for sale in the classifieds ahhum...

For me it would be the BE. First off it has plenty of gain for my needs and if I need more I hit the front end with a Timmy and it sounds great. Second, the HBE IMO is more compressed and doesn't sound as open as the BE. Not saying the HBE doesn't sound good but like I said, for my needs the BE fits the bill and on top of that it's cheaper.

If you get the HBE you get both the BE and HBE in the mod.

I skipped the HBE and instead added the JBE for when I wanted more gain/more modern tone, plus a few other mods.

more gain in jbe mod ? really?

There is a pretty significant boost in gain when the JBE mod is kicked in (as far as distortion goes, the volume actually drops some). It also has a more modern voicing.

The saturation mod is part of the JBE. I have the BE/C45/JBE with saturation on my amp. They all kill!!!

BE if the choice is only just one....

BUT IT'S NOT! Get 'em all, it's worth havin' them all under the hood... Really!

If I has to live with one on my KS mod 50 watt plexi it would be the BE and SAT switch!

This is a stupid question, for the price you would just get both. Don't be a tightass!
