First amp I've had in almost two years. Been using a Kemper, which is fine, but I also wanted something traditional. Marshall 1960AX cab

Amp ho
I know that has to feel damn good after not having an amp for a couple years. Sorry neighbors…

No doubt. I did the Kemper thing for a while and remember what a great feeling it was going back to it a tube amp. I never made that mistake again

Other than the Marsha, the best amp he’s ever made.

Man, I tried to go all digital a few years back and even sold all my amps to commit to it. I thought it would make me more productive and finish up some lingering projects because the results would be immediately repeatable. Boy did I just end up missing real amps!
If I could have kept the Kemper maybe making my own profiles would have been useful but all the commercial ones out there or anything on the registry never sounded or felt like anything I would have come up with using a real amp, mic, and cab. Plus I just ended up learning how much I just really enjoy the act of playing on real gear.
Maybe give making your own profiles of the Friedman a shot if you haven’t before.

I'm keeping the Kemper for other things -- late night practicing, learning songs, quiet practice during the day. I just wanted something that felt a bit more real. Besides this is in the basement and my music room is upstairs

Sweet! IMO you can't beat a Friedman into Celestions for classic hot-British tone.

There's no substitute for a real tube amp in terms of feel.

I don't #1 sitting down, but a Spark 40 would be a great bathroom amp for playing while taking an inspiring #2Me too
Can I interest anyone in a Spark 40 or demo copy of Guitar Rig?

I like that the amp feet line up with the cups on the cab

@japetus honestly my Cali tweed 4:40 6v6 does literally every vintage fender tone except for the giant high powered twin thing
It does blackface, blonde/brownface, silver face, and tweed of literally EVERY amp, with the right speaker combo and the right multiwatt power setting
Being able to go from a champ style distortion to a deluxe is insanely nice, instead of owning 37 fenders
