I can comply with #3 now. Maybe over the weekend I can work on #1 and #2

[Glowing Review] My first reaction was "WTF - You have GOT to be joking! How can this $1k amp sound so freaking awesome, and how can it be so versatile?!?!?" I was expecting a huge compromise compared to the modular stuff, but the difference really isn't all that big! This is a GREAT sounding amp, and it covers a lot of bases. Of course, it can never be as versatile as a MOD50, but I can easily dial in 6-8 distinct tones on this thing - between the Gain controls and the Tube Mix, you can really change the character of the amp pretty dramatically. Again, it's not as dramatic as popping a different module in, but dah-um!

Channel 1 is as advertised - a nice shimmery clean and can grunt when pushed. It doesn't really sound like a "clone" of anything - i.e. not really a T/D or BMAN sound exactly, but it can get into those territories depending on the settings to my ears, anyway.

Channel 2 is where this amp really earns its stripes, IMO. Everything here from SL low gain to SL2 crunchies and beyond. I cranked the Gain all the way and put it half way between 6L6s and EL34s, and I got a pretty decent Jerry Cantrell-ish Bogner Shiva-type tone. (And this was with a guitar that has vintage output Lollar P90s, no less!!)

I am thinking about picking up one of the new Line6 M9 uber-stompbox modelers and seeing how this thing takes pedals - I'm betting it will take them pretty well, as most Egnater stuff does. With the M9 and the Renegade, you can cover a buttload of tonal acreage. [/Glowing Review]

Well done Bruce and Jeff!

Thanks we tried to make it the best bang for the buck that we could!

Mission accomplished. Blows everything else I've tried in this price range away - even blows away some I've played in the 2X price range!

I also hoped this would be the case!

I've tried telling that story as well. Glad you are diggin' it. I had one at the house for several hours and it's crazy good. I said if I didn't have the Mod, I'd buy one of these in a heartbeat.

The only bad thing with the line 6 is that you have to use a four cable method to get the over drives in front of the amp and I had the M13 and it did suck the tone out of the amp. But that was with the Randall RM 50

Well that's kind of a bummer. Maybe I should just get a couple o' "real" pedals instead. I mean, I don't really use a ton of effects live anyway....

I don't think the M9 is even capable of 4CM. It's a simple stereo in, stereo out. Left in is mono and left out is mono. I almost bought one today, but I gotta have about 60 of my own. The thing is there's only 24 "patches" / they call'em scenes I guess.
