I will always love the XTC tone. I have had a love and hate relationship with it most of my life. Kinda like my wife

What's the love/hate?
I have never owned or even played one. But to me, i've always wondered how it would sound in a two guitar band? I have heard some country acts at work play one in a one guitar band. Sounded good. blended well. But I often wonder if it gets lost in a two guitarist setup? Cuz most clips I see are just amp demos, which seems like a great wanker amp.

Here is what I mean by love/hate. I have always loved the XTC tone. The 100B I had and sold like a dumb guitar player was the holy grail. The red channel on most of these amps is just the best. However when I play an XTC next to another amp that is voiced differently - Friedman, Cameron, Cornford, etc, then your ears start playing tricks on you. Most Bogner amps have a certain midrange quality that some love or hate. I personally love it, but then find myself always going back to more of an open sound. Thankfully the Helios covers the ground for me but I will someday soon own another XTC as well.
