One of my friends that was a studio engineer said always go with tubes for instruments especially guitars. Not sure what the two amps in question are.
Help me decide! Marshall & Orange heads for high gain stacking
Hello all - I am at a crossroads. I have a budget of about 600 USD (Max) and I am looking for an amplifier that fits my needs and compliments the styles of music that I play. I usually rotate between 3 genres of music
-Doom/Sludge/Stoner metal (Sleep, Mastodon, Beezelbong)
-Hard Rock/Shoegaze (If these trees could talk, Alcest, Clutch, Sabbath)
-Drone & Ambient (Sunn, Inter Arma, YOB)
I currently play -
Heads: Orange Micro Dark 20W Hybrid head and a SUNN Concert Lead 100W Solid State.
Cab: Orange 2x12 w/ Celestion 30's
Guitar(s): Les Paul w/ Matt Pike sig. pickups (C Standard) G&L Telecaster (E Flat), and a Squire Baritone (Drop A)
Pedals: Lots, I get most, if not all, of my distortion and effects from pedals.
