So I ended up pulling the trigger on a Mesa Stiletto Trident I saw at a used everything kind of store called Eco Town (Hard Off in Japan). I got to admit I was digging the orange head tolex and look in general without even knowing how it sounded. Thanks for everyone that chimed in on my other thread, at least I knew what I was getting into. I got to say I kind of dig this amp. It doesn't blow away my other amps, not even close but it is pretty cool and more versatile than I thought.
Ch1 the clean channel is pretty cool, the fat clean switch sounds rad but I liked it best with the gain cranked up on bold.. it really reminded me of the AC/DC For those about to rock tone, kind of on the darker side. When switched to Spongy it reminded me of early Ramones lol... Ch2 the high gain channel in Spongy mode totally reminds me of the Master of Puppets tone. I didn't even boost the amp yet and am pretty stoked.
Quick clip below playing thru V30s (I didn't care for it with my 2x12 Redbacks) with a 1980 Greco Les Paul Custom with custom alinico 8 pickups a buddy made for me. Don't mine the fuck ups.. haven't been playing so much lately
