Okay, so the incredible tone of a Divided by 13 FTR 37, but with a bigger soundstage

Okay, I am going to be looking for a bigger sounding amp than the FTR 37 that I had. I want that TYPE of tone, but in a much beefier soundstage.

What I am I going to be looking for.............


Thanks,
M.E.

Two or more FTR 37s.

The Ganesha sounds like an FTR 37? Never played either, but I heard clips of the 37 and always thought the Ganesha was voiced after a plexi.

Two might just fit the bill! What about an FTR and an ERT~!

I was using the FTR with an old Marshall 4-12 with greenies. Not loud/big enough.

Maybe an FTR with a good power amp..

Man..............


Thanks!

M.E.

When I hear "big soundstage" I think JTM45/100, Vox AC100, Marshall Major and the like. There's no replacement for displacement.

I really think that would be my first try. Think Brian May.

And yet Brian May is happy with his stack of AC30s.

I think the greenies are what's holding you back.
