I know people are going to be rude and tell me to do a search, but I already have and still need more information, so if you want to help me out, great. But please don't be rude.
I typically play rock, blues/rock, alt/rock, and country/rock, so our band covers quite a bit of ground. I could really use a two-amp setup but would rather have one amp and use my volume knob and pedals. I never need a pristine clean. I like my cleans to be nice and gritty, usually just rolling my volume knob down to get them. Don't need reverb. Could use a loop but don't mind reamping to get delay sounds.
I've been considering the FTR37, RSA23, and LDW 17/39, and am leaning towards the LDW. I've heard the master volume is extremely usable, and I need a good bit of gain available. I could get my gain from pedals, but at this point, I've determined that I prefer amp distortion. The FTR and RSA have always intrigued me and is regularly praised here, but I'd like a master. I could get by just fine in my band with a 50-watt Marshall, so I'm thinking the LDW would be great for me. I think I'd prefer the LDW over the JJN due to the chimy nature of class A amps, which it is in half power mode.
Any thoughts?
