Progressive metal and politics
So I'm always interested in Oranges but can never find really the right one to buy. At one point I was interested in the Rockerverb but heard some Josh Middleton clips with the Thunderverb and started keeping an eye for them. But check out this transitive A/B and see if you agree or or have hands-on experience that argues against this conclusion.
First, Thunderverb vs. Dual Dark:
Here I feel the Dual Dark edges it out a bit. In general I like the thought of the Dual Dark, so I start going down that hole. Of course they're hard to find these days (despite dealers here still sitting on new ones from 2017...).
But Dual Dark vs. Dark Terror:
Surprisingly, I think the Dark Terror sounded better to me. So, that's nice. Dark Terrors are cheap. Buuut...
Dark Terror vs. TH30:
To me this is hands-down for the TH30. It just sound bigger. It could be the tubes -- maybe going to the Dual Dark EL34s hurts that rich saturated Orange sound.
But this is kind of a surprising and counter-intuitive conclusion. I guess I'm waiting for the TH30 vs. TH100/200 clip to make it a perfect circle.
