well, here it is... it's not my first one but oddly i like this one more ![Nuts :nuts: :nuts:](http://www.sevenstring.org/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/nuts.gif)
sold the first one because i didn't think it had enough gain. after deciding to just buy 1 amp that does everything i need i landed at another one of these or an Invader. i got this at a price i couldn't pass up and i at least knew 100% what tone i was getting when i bought it. i couldn't find an invader in a store to play in person... enough words... pics!
and the updated pic of my home practice area
soo now a few pics are out fo the way... somewhat recently i went to possibly trade my Orange for an ENGL Blackmore. turned out it was the guy who bought my first Steve Morse!
...after playing the Blackmore, then my old Morse and finally hearing him play my Orange we both decided we liked what we already had more than what we were looking to trade...
here's my original, buying the same amp twice loses it's "new" feeling but i am loving it. i swear it really does have more gain than my old one!
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaand my last bit of rambling... my "new" Morse is actually newer so it still has the original tubes. well, all but 1. one of the power tubes must have failed and it was replaced with a Groove Tube. the GT burns so much hotter than the original tube so i just ordered a full set of JJ tubes with an optional "high gain" set of preamp tubes. should be fun soon! thinking i will be putting a video up on YouTube on how to bias an ENGL e656 Steve Morse. i'll probably explain the basics of biasing in the video too...
