If I get this amp, it's gonna set me back to January on getting my recording rig. I was gonna get that first, and wait till the first of the year to get a Bugera amp, and save up for something better. But if I get this amp now, wait to get my studio stuff, then if I want, I'll sell this and use that money to get a Splawn, or maybe another Randall. I've also been checking out FJAmods custom built amps. A friend of mine has one of these(Dual Recto) and he loves it, it does sound pretty awesome. He was telling me that the rectifier tube has a lot to do with the "sag" this amp has, and to choose one that sounds good to me. This is all french to me, all I've really played through mostly were solid state and hybrid amps(Randall V2 that was stolen). I had tube amps in my youth, but back then I wasn't really concerned with tone as much as being loud. Like I said, if it's still there in 2 weeks, it's mine. While it's on layaway, I can start saving up some cash to order the lopoline cab and speakers for it. What speakers sound good with this amp? I was planning on some Swamp Thangs, but my friend told me it would have too much lowend then.


Always scoop the mids!!
