ebozzz

I’ve got kids so I’ve had to watch many episodes of Pinky and the Brain!

You nailed it with your description! Well done!

@asingardenof, just in case you aren't familiar with that character......😂 Pinky and the Brain

47 is worse than this guy.....🤣

How so?

it did indeed! My apologies! Now back to the Ian & Scott hate Sadowsky sentiments!

I was attempting to be diplomatic with my description and I’d love to hear the moniker that you feel is most appropriate. I guess an extreme amount of pride for the state is another way of characterizing it. All that I know is that when I interact with most individuals from there the TEXAS vibe is very evident to me!

Ok, I made it here in 1991. The main reason that my kids moved to Dallas was that it was much more affordable for them. I can’t really speak about the cost of everyday items there in comparison to here but housing is definitely less. Think about marijuana in this way. Many just want to be able to get what they need for medical or recreational purposes without fearing any legal ramifications. Some citizens in other states are being prosecuted for possession or growing small amounts of marijuana. That being said, I think legalization was just a plus for people considering moving here. The local economy, job market and quality of living is what caused the area to be considered.

I’m in the Denver area. Not sure when you were here but the population has increased significantly since marijuana was legalized (medical 2000 & recreational 2012). It’s a lot more expensive to live here now. In comparison to other places that I’ve lived in the States, it’s still pretty nice. My experience in England is limited. I spent brief periods of time in Lakenheath and Mildenhall when I was in the Air Force. My permanent duty station was in Germany though. Colorado, especially the mountain areas, reminds me a lot of Germany. That’s probably why I enjoy it here as I have very fond memories of Germany….

I’ve lived in Colorado for more than 30 years but migrated here from the Deep South. When I first arrived in Colorado I drove trucks for a living and had routes that frequently took me to Montana, Nebraska and Wyoming. I’ve got a lot of relatives & friends in various parts of Texas so I’ve spent and continue to spend a a lot of time there. Both of my kids have relocated to the Dallas area. My comments about Texans aren’t malicious and of course, just my opinion. Texans are different!

In my opinion the difference between Montanans & Texans is more of a cultural thing. Texans tend to have a sort of arrogance that can be a little overbearing to some people and I just don't get that same vibe from the Montanans that I've associated with. Just my opinion now....

i live in the Rocky Mountain region and i know Texas very well. I respectfully disagree….

Montana is nothing like Texas but he got the snow part right. 🤣

That's basically Canada......🤣

Or an American…..

Where did all of THAT come from?

Currently I used a pair of Phil Jones Bass Compact 4s or one of my two Boom Bass Cabinets (Tank 1212 or Tank 1215). Boom Bass Cabinets are no longer in production though….

That’s crazy! I’m not bragging but out of the sixteen basses that I own only one is Fender and four are Yamahas.

@Al Krow, It's been a couple of years since I had the T in my care so anything I could tell you now would be strictly from memory only. If I am correct, it sounds like you are interested in tube-like characteristics or performance. Here are my disclaimers. I have never owned nor have I had any meaningful experience with a true tube amp. Due to my lack of experience, my perspectives may not be as accurate as those from someone who has been more hands on with tube amps. With that being said, I'll try to answer your question.... If a person is looking for an amp that would offer some dirt or overdriven tones to their signal the Veyron BV1001T, while warmer sounding than the Mosfet version to my ears, is probably not the one as it stays pretty clean throughout the gain structure. I do think that it sounds similar to some of the tones that Ed was achieving in his video at times but I honestly don't feel that it would get you totally there. Now, the T with a quality & less expensive pedal than the Lehle in front of it? That might work.

I kept my T for about a year and I've had an M for over three years. Never had an issue with either. Also, I know of at least two people that have had a T for longer than I've had my M.If I were contemplating the purchase of one of the Veyrons, I would just go with the one that I felt suited my tone needs best. I honestly don't think there's a drastic difference in performance or reliability......

Different, yes. Very different? I don't know that I am in agreement there. Having owned both amps at the same time, my personal experience is that the amps sound & perform in a very similar fashion. The main difference to my ears is that I felt the T was a little more darker or warmer sounding than the M. At least, that was my perception with the cabs and instruments that I was working with at the time that I had both.

There are some similarities in tone with the two but my personal opinion is that the T has more of a low mid presence than the M. The preamp sections are slightly different as well....

It's worth it! 🤣🤣🤣
