LukeFRC Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 I'm getting rig change itch. I like nice clean transparent bass sounds. I like the fatness of my ACG equiped Warwick. It sounds great. But I also think that the big clean sound is... well... not a big warm valveyness. But then if I found a fatter warm valve sound would I miss the clean quick response of my solid state amp? Which I've heard reviewed that it sounds a bit like a clean high end valve amp anyway.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Tecamp Puma 1000 into Tecamp M210 4 ohm. I'm thinking might go for a separate pre and power amp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damonjames Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 GAS IS EVIL!!! I'm going through a similar problem, but going from valvey orange head to a super clean GK. Just not convinced, is hard to work out. I was thinking if hiring a gk head and cab from big fish and try it at our rehearsal space an see how it fits. Saves buying and selling!

xgsjx Posted October 27, 2013 Share Posted October 27, 2013 Why not get a valve pre pedal (maybe one of them there DHA thingybobs)? That way if you want some valve/warmth/whateverness, you can get it & then go back to clean at the press of a footswitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_b Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 I've seen reviews that the Puma 900 is supposed to sound better than the 1000. That's all you need to change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Foxen Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Get a valve amp that doesn't have the mid scoop only Fender tone stack, and a decent power supply, and don't need to worry so much about losing the attack speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
