He was also a 'purist' before owning one, always ragging on his digital equipment and using mainly analog stuff. He plays metal, and Punk and gets a really authentic Mesa Dual Rectifier tone out of it through his twin after tweaking one of the stock 'mid scooped' distortion settings. One of my friends is a guitar player, and he ditched his BOSS GT for one as well. Quite a few blues tones to play with in there too, and everything is super customizable. I get both a Chandler Tube Driver tone, which I use most of the time for that Pink Floyd / David Gilmour sound. I use the unit for Delay, and most of my distortion tones. It's one of the best FX processors I've ever used because it sounds 'analog', and not 'tinny' or 'digital'. Tubes are what make this baby really cook. They sound horrid compared to this unit, though it's older than both of those! I had a BOSS GT-6, and GT-8 but don't have anything good to say about those. I think you could even use 12AU7's in here for less distortion, if that's what you were after and 'soften' things up a bit for blues, country, etc.Įven the presets on this thing sound GREAT, and are very useful as a guitar player - and maybe even a Bass player / keyboardist could use one of these to get some really cool stuff. It's hard to tell, personally with tube swapping that your tone has changed ' a lot ', it's only a minor change. Swapped out the stock tubes for Groove Tubes, and went to Ruby Tubes now. Upgraded mine to the 2120 with a really simple EPROM chip swap. The cleans sound brilliant too.ĭoes Overdrives, Distortions, EQ, Delay, Reverb, and Stereo (panning) effects as well as a bunch of other stuff like 'Quad Delay', has left/ right amp out mono jacks - and when used between two amps in stereo, does some pretty amazing stuff, like a rotary simulations / phasers and panning delays. This unit uses two 12AX7 tubes to produce some amazing tube overdrive / distortion tones.
