I had the RV100, but I didn't like dark muddy tone.

A Matamp, in pink:D. I wanted stronger overdrive at lower volumes.

I had 3 Oranges. All gone

I had a R30 and loved the dirty, but needed a better clean.

Then, most recently, I had an AD30htc (not loud enough), so I went to the AD140htc, but I didn't like the OD channel as much as on the AD30. Nor did I care to use any type of OD pedal to get me more punch/gain.

Since then, I've owned/tried a slew of Mesa/Boogie amps from a Mark IV, to a LOVELY Stiletto Deuce Stage II, and now I have a very SLO-100-sounding '92 Mesa Dual Rectifier. Clean's great, dirty's awesome, FX loop brilliant. Not a whole lot more to ask for.

I would very much so like to get rid of the Dual Recto for an EL34-biased RV100, though. I think it may do better than the Recto for some of the newer sounds I'd like to achieve in my next project.

First...

Secondly...

Third...

Probably not last...

Sold my RV 50 for an Ulbrick Arena 50 Combo. Hand made point to point. Amazing.....

I started w/ a Tiny Terror, then got a Rocker 30 head, sold the Rocker and am going to sell the TT when I'm done with school in a few months. My only guitar is a Tele and the Oranges just weren't making my Tele sound as I wanted it to. I now play a Vox AC15 Heritage and it's perfect for me. My Tele now sounds exactly as I think it should.

You guys have some amazing looking amps by the way...

Here's the thing - with the RVs - it completely depends on 2 things - the kind of speakers/cab you have AND, where you are standing in relationship to the cab.

i really really really!!! tried to make it work it was such a nice looking set-up. i tried it on the floor, on top of a chair, on top of my PPC412, i tried it with all six speakers, just the combo, i found it best with just the 4x12 Eminence loaded but still it did not have quite what im after. even my drummer did not like it. so i was forced to move on.

i loved the RV50 at low volume, beautiful sounding amp, just cranked up it was very harsh on the ears, we play loud so i need pleasant sounding amps.

I've moved into Dr. Z territory for that lovely breakup sounds. I liked orange for modern music though. Dual recs playing metal sound too sterile to me, I like a looser sound.

Magnus Pettersen · Post by **Magnus Pettersen** » Mon Mar 02, 2009 1:25 am

I had an AD30HTC and a R30C, both great amps, but after i got into more simple amps, I just use my Dr.Z Carmen Ghia, so I sold the Orange amps, but I'm thinking about getting a TT for home use
