Had a blast in Atlanta at Boutique Guitar Exchange. Fun store with a great selection of boutique gear.
Loved the Fuchs 50 SLX head. Probably my favorite Fuchs that I have played. Really felt right. Played the 3-channel Fuchs as well. Very cool, but I like the smaller size.
Played some Fargen stuff for the first time. The Plexi stuff did its thing, but I really liked a little 1x12 combo with EL84s. Voxy, simple, great grind with some volume. Light, portable grab-and-go. The prices seem to have gone up recently, but they were probably a bargain previously.
Finally got to try the Roccaforte Danelle (spelling???) with reverb and no master. Very cool and screaming when loud. Probably not the Rocca I would choose for general use. I still like the Custom 30 and HG 100. Still would be fun to try the HG 30. Really classy rock solid stuff.
They were out of the OD 100 amps and they had one Guytron FV left. Did not play it though (have many times before). They also had a used Pitbull 45 combo, but I have one and did not play it.
Suhr, Tyler, Grosh, Anderson, and McNaught all there. Suhr was my fav of course.
Really is though after playing them all side by side. Color me biased (very), but man, Suhr holds up well to a side-by-side test. Do it yourself if you get a chance.
I really liked the McNaught stuff as well. I have had a couple and they have not stuck, but really well built creative stuff. There was a black flame singlecut that played and sounded great. Quite heavy though. Enjoyed it through the Rocca stuff.
Definitely check out the store if you get to the area. Rob and Missy are great and it is a very cool spot.
