oedipoes's Amp Rig

In my quest for a legendary old VHT Pittbull Ultra Lead with KT88 power tubes, I started looking at alternatives. One of these is the Sig:X. It has a similar dry and unforgiving tone to it. Something the Ultra Lead is well known for. But I didn’t expect it in this amp. But where the Ultra Lead is quite narrow-minded (extremely good at one thing), the Sig:X is much more versatile. It has a lot of tonal options and switches all over the panel. Initially they intimidate and confuse. But when taking a bit of time experimenting and dialling in the amp, they all make perfect sense. They all do something to the tone that is clearly audible. If you (like me) want to know what you‘re actually doing, the manual explains it very well. This amp can do crystal sparkling cleans, nice crunch, strong rythm parts and searing leads. Three channels. A boost*. And a happy guitarist.

• no it doesn’t need a tube screamer. It already HAS a boost!
