I have a 100 watt PWE EH2 on the way! I'm not sure of the year, but it has Tachyon and Hyperion switches, the gain switch, blow channel plus the NFB, deep, and presence controls.
Super stoked!
I had the same exact 50 watt version several years ago, but sold it to fund a Kemper, which in turn was sold to cover a Friedman Runt 50. In retrospect I should have just kept the PWE, but it was fun to go down a few different paths.
The Runt was a cool amp and did the aggressive JCM 800 thing really, really well and had a fantastic clean channel, but I wanted more tone/ feel shaping and couldn't swing a BE 50 or 100. I was trying to stay under $1800 used, and was considering the Landry LS100G3, the 3rd Power Citizen Gain CSR, the EH2, the Splawn Quick Rod, and the Bogner Shiva. I found an EH2 on Reverb, and the super cool seller made me a deal I couldn't pass up.
I'm going to be running a Lexicon MPX-1 in the loop for time based effects, with a couple of different OD pedals up front along with an MXR Phase 95.
Cabs are a Splawn 4x12 loaded with Scumback M75 PVCs on top and G12Ms on the bottom, and an EVH 2x12 with G12Ms. I do have two V30s that I can use to experiment with once I get the amp dialed. May pick up a couple more depending on how things sound.
Guitars are a PRS 408 and a Schecter USA custom shop California Custom Elite.
Can't wait to get this rig dialed in!
