I am real close to pulling the trigger on this amp, but would like to get any input about what would would suite my needs:
1) 2x10 or 1x12? Normally I am a 1x12 guy - I like full bottom bass response without farting out & not overly bright or shrill high end. Yes, I have read the overall generic tone qualities of 2x10 vs 1x12 in other posts (punchier, larger speaker area, etc), but still cannot decide. Will the 2x10 fart out easily? Anyone have an Encore with a 1x12? Any input?
2) Speakers? If 2x10 - Rajun Cajun or Legend 105s? I don't think I would opt for the copperheads as they sound too nasily and have too much "honk" for my tastes. If 1x12, Red White & Blue or Swamp Thang? The RWB does seem to have more mid-scoop to my ears. Is that just me?
My aim: I want a nice clean, shimmering Fender tone that can overdrive somewhat when turned up. I play blues & classic rock mostly.
Any input and suggestions is greatly appreciated...Thanks
