Cause offence.
Accuse people of taking offence.
Act indignant.
Seen the same thing happen too many times.
People trying to justify their GAS
Re the Tonemaster, I haven’t tried one but we’ve been around the block enough times with the ‘digital finally matches up to valves’ theme to know that for many people (home players mostly I imagine) having had a chance to live with it for a while and do detailed contrast and compare, they come to the conclusion that digital doesn’t quite match up yet. For lots of gigging and pro musicians it’s likely a good bit of work kit.
Early days for me but Waz was right - it’s brilliant kit. Used to have a Carr Sportsman which was gorgeous but very happy with my TM and suits all my needs at home, live at church with DI etc.
It has stopped my amp GASSING too.
Thanks again Waz…. Jon
I think it’s more to do with people springing for the latest hot thing and then realising later it doesn’t give the more than what they have. That, of course is something I’d never do…..
I’m keen to try a TM even though I don’t really need one. The concept seems spot-on to me and I’m interested in what you lose in ‘feel’ ,if anything, vs a valve equivalent when they’re overdriven.
And if so, bearing in mind how much more those amps do, does the extra likeness outweigh those advantages?
Following on from @stickyfiddle 's comment about the cab and the speaker.
How much of it is also down to it looking identical to a 65 Deluxe Reverb?
Most of us hear with our eyes to some extent - I know I do and it's part of the reason why i wanted one.
