I'm a tube snob...er..um..I mean purist.
My rig is a Marshall TSL 100 three channel all tube with the TC Electronics G System processor.
I went to see a friend play last weekend and he had just dumped all his gear and was playing through an Ultra.
What I heard coming from his rig staggered me.
His guitar, at times, sounded like the sounds were being pulled from a Triton or Motiff engine.
When I got my Marshall, it's because that's the sound I'd always had. So, when replacing the amp, my keyboardist, A true technophile, was hounding me to get an "everything" modeling processor but....me being the snob..er...purist...stayed with my "natural" all tube sound.
After hearing the Axe, I'm truly torn.
One part of my head is screaming to put my entire rig on Craigslist and get an Axe with a small power amp and a small speaker box since I'd be going through the PA anyway.
The other side of my head is saying.....NO DON'T GIVE IN...lol
I've been looking through this forum and I see that, just like with the G System (phenomenal FX rig even if it doesn't do modeling) there are folks here complainging about bits and pieces not performing as expected.
Sounds like the proverbial six of one, half dozen of the other.
*sigh*
