So I took my switchblade to Steve in Burbank (roc n roll doctor). He has toured with Aerosmith as amp tech for 2 yrs in the past!
This guy knows his tubes and amps, etc.
He hates Mesa amps. The cold biasing, etc. He says, "just take it to Mesa hollywood for servicing".
He called my H&K Switchblade "an abortion". I almost started laughing hysterically.
He said the preamp is a "computer" and on the oscilloscope it was stepping up in the sine wave, not a normal smooth movement that analog tube preamps exhibit.
Anyways, for the price, that H&K is pretty **** good.
He like fenders, vox, marshall (JCM800 doesn't like much). Guess he's more into tone than gain.
any comments?
