Ur Mom Is Too Much Gain
It’s such a good amp. The only thing I’ve tried that really competed with it for me was the EL34 50 watt. The OG 5153 6l6 has always seemed too smooth / polite for my taste. The Iconic head through a good cab was about 85% there for me, but the real deal stealth and EL34 are just straight up at the top of the heap.I went to pick it up and there was an EVH 5150 Stealth 50w and a Mini Invective at this GC location. Literally the exact amps I was looking at before buying the VTM, both of which I have never tried before.
I tried all 3 (VTM, Invective, EVH) into a 212 and bros… for what I’m trying to do it wasn’t even close. That EVH Stealth 50w is the PINNACLE of every amp I’ve tried for high gain stuff.
I returned the VTM on the spot and now I’m just price shopping for a good 5150 50w Stealth.
