I've come to finally admit to myself that I am agonizingly bored with my tone. While my trusty old 2x12 is a bad ass amp, time for a new approach. I was collecting parts for the VH100R I was gonna build.....got pissed at the prices of parts and laid it aside till the bug bit me again. I'm thinkin I'm gonna go with a block 5150 and send it to Harry Kolbe for brain surgery. The only drawback to that plan is going back to N.Y. to try it out after the work is done. (Harry does EXCELLENT work and truly is a soundsmith. He turned my old 1961 Ampower 30 watt 1x8 into a fucking beast even though it was NOT cheap. Theres a few around here that do boutique amps, but I'm not keen on letting some gomer thats into Chet Atkins tone anywhere near my equipment ya know? I would mod the Peavey I have now, but wtf is modding a SS amp gonna do but make me broke and pissed? signed A disfunctional guitar player

I'm still in love with my block 5150, even though I'm not sure how much of the tone is actually due to the amp and how much is due to the sonic maximizer lol
