That’s the thing… like for me, yes it’s great at some things. Leads, chord work, CLEANS, etc. but then I think, why am I gonna keep this 4000 dollar amp when I have a ton of amps that ALSO do those things and many do it MUCH better ( for my personal taste)? And if I could only have one amp and I wasn’t in the situation I am now, it for SURE wouldn’t be my only amp either! So for me it just didn’t make sense. It was one of those things that when I mic’d it up and tracked it I’m like wow that’s killer…. Until I A/B’d it to other stuff I own… it was no contest then. People will justify anything in their head to make themselves believe their 4000 dollar amp sounds great. Let’s all be honest, we have ALL done that, including me. But I put a stop to that real quick, and away it went. I used to drool over this thing in like 8th grade looking at musicians friend magazines seeing this expensive ass amp and thinking OMGGGGG it’s gotta be the one blah blah blah. I had every nostalgic reason in my head to justify keeping it. But I couldn’t do it, it just doesn’t do it at all for me. And it’s one of those things I always ask myself to, “ how many of my favorite tones ever were done with this thing?” The answer was not surprisingly, zero.
