Fast, Tight, Dry Amps, What You Got?

[MatrixClaw]

I really feel like Engl is central hub of the fast, tight, and dry tonal wheelhouse. For me.

Since starting this thread, and trying a few VHT/Fryette offerings (beyond what I have
already owned in the past), it has left me with the belief that VHT/Fryette may be dry, but
they are not all that tight. Definitely looser than the Engls.

Yngwie uses Superleads/Plexis.... and the 80's Shredders were using JCMs.... and those
both had a fast enough response for them.

Still like to try a Sig X or Pitbull CLX at some point, but no rush there. Still love Steven
and what he does. Just not quite what I am chasing at this point in time.

I don't even find most Fryette amps to be that dry. Really, it was only the Ultralead for me that had this quality and I found it so dry that it lacked any character to me That said, I have only played my Savage and people say it's super tight and I don't really find that to be very true. It's tight, but not as tight as many others I've played... And I appreciate that, because if it was as tight as people said, it'd be way too one-dimensional for me.

That mythology is all over the Internet, though, and has led me astray!
