I was being a bit fascitious. You can tell by the emojis. But your post also is revealing. It's politics that get in the way, for some people. Or is that bigotry? IDude, do you have any idea of the amp collections of members here?
I sincerely doubt that people can't afford; rather I think it's a combination of people not thinking it's worth the price, and people who don't want to put money in the angry lesbian aunt's pockets
Your idea of shitty is...shitty. I'll take the impression of my ears, Tim Pierce, and several others in his category over yours, thank you very much.
When you get it, let us know how you like it. I think you are the one that used to have a bedrock amp. That guy is making mgl now. If you haven't tried mgl, you should. Killer ampsI ordered a Dookie. I immediately recognized the sound I wanted when I listened to the clips. I have three old Marshalls and, while I won't know for sure until it gets here, it sounds better than any Marshall I've personally played. We shall see. It in fact sounds better than the original that Cavallo has, as can be heard in the Tim Pierce comparison video (they thought because the components are new).
All the whining gives me one impression: You peeps can't afford one. Enjoy your captures, boys.
Of course, you have other reasons too, valid reasons, such as haughty arrogance, cork-sniffing wankiness, insecurity, etc.
And on cost, I looked up the price of a normal SLP in the year Dookie was recorded. It varies but the average seems to have been around $1,750. AI told me inflation has added 2.31 times to the cost of everything, on average. That puts the inflation-adjusted price of that SLP at $4,042. A Dookie is $4,000. But a Dookie isn't a run of the mill PCB SLP. It's hand-wired in England, it's a limited run, a signature, it has a factory Dookie mod, Master Volume, and a unique color. All of that put together makes the Dookie somewhat a bargain, IMO. If they don't make too many of them, they will go up in value over the long-term. And the whole time it will sound awesome. You can't stare at a capture or show it to your buds. This amp is going to be jaw dropping to my guitar friends - people who grew up with GD. If I hadn't ordered one, I'm pretty sure I'd be kicking myself for the rest of my life. I wish I'd bought a Randy Rhoads and a Lemmy too. These opportunities don't come along too often (at least, they haven't).
Don't get your fee-fees in a wad over a joke. I guess the play on words shot right over you head even with putting dookie in parentheses right next to it.
Fair enough! Lol
Sadly, yes, this is exactly the type I have meals with. Maybe worse.
I remember an interview with Tim Pierce about the SLO100 and Tim proceeds to say "Rectifiers you see them on stage all the time but no one records with them" dumbest comment I.ever heard. Never again will I listen to that dude.
