After raving about the Flexi, I'm starting to get frustrated with it. I'm finding it just too fiddly, I'm spending more time trying to dial it in day by day rather than actually enjoying playing, to the point where I've turned it round so I cant see the knobs!
It has this upper mid buzz going on which I just dont like, and its just not working for me. I really need some help picking an amp now. I like very simple amps that I dont have to piss about fiddling with. The tone has to be like a great Marshall, but thicker, fatter, more musical, and not at all harsh - I've tried originals, self modded 800's, an Aiken, this Flexi, and none of em gave me the sound I'm after. I've heard some EXCELLENT live clips of a band called Hurricane Party courtesy of BigHair, and they get fantastic tone from Cornell Plexi's. Anyone got any experience with em? Or how about the Marshall 18watters/Metro amp 18w build? Soldano?
I did have a Cornford Hurricane which came the closest, but ended up selling that because I didn't get the low end and depth I wanted due to the 84's. I never got to try it with a 4x12 though...
I'm stuck now...
Cheers
