Re: This looks intersting
I like it.
I've been wanting one of the Bogner pedals since they came out. I haven't tried one yet though. I'd assume I would gravitate toward the Ecstasy Blue, but I'd probably want the greater gain from the Red on the occasion.
Re: 6V6s, I haven't spent that much time with them to comment. I like 84s sonically and have been using them for a number of years now (since I started doing the Mesa + Yellowjackets thing... I do miss that amp, but it's not my belovéd Stephanie.) but yeah, the lifespan sucks. I've blown a few of them, and I suspect the current set is responsible for how much my rig hums at the moment.
One of the Ecstasy pedals into an AC30 with a Blue and a Greenback would in theory sound pretty glorious, right?
I like the tinyamp concept as a whole for personal use. Having an 18-watt mode means it's loud enough to gig with if desired and you don't need cleanyclean cleans. Which I don't, and I note the dirtyness of the clean channel, of which I also approve.
