I joined the PV cult

Post by FortheloveofBennie » Wed Dec 07, 2022 5:55 pm

I've only ever had a 15w combo amp. It was fine for the longest time, but the input jack went out, so I upgraded. I recently bought a U.S. red stripe Bandit 112, but I didn't have enough amp distortion, so I bought a teal stripe Ultra 60 head. I paired it with an XXL 4x12 cab. I bought some 1989 G12T-75's and newer Mesa Boogie vintage 30's, I'm probably going to run in an X pattern.

Oh wow! Nice, very nice! I'd like to snag either a VTM or Ultra.

Excellent setup! How you digging the sound?
One of my favorite speakers is the Sheffield 1230. Have you tried those in your 412 yet!

The 4x12 should have blue marvels, but I do like the clean sounds through the bandit's Sheffields more. I need to go back and try some overdrives through the crunch channel of the bandit, to see which ones I like better for distortion. I just really like the dirty channel, and low end I get from the 4x12 in general, so I've been playing the Ultra60 more. Maybe one day I'll run the 2 amps together, ultra for gain and bandit for cleans.
