So when I transitioned to 7s back in 2014; the biggest issue I came across is finding a decent practice amp to support the extra string haha! I personally use a Orange crush 35rt which is perfect for clean style play and keeping chops up to par but when wanting to mimic certain tones and styles its a no go. It seems unless you dump into a decent processor or rack mount then you are limited a bit. Any thoughts out there for someone like myself who is either always traveling or deployed?
