Stealth 50 incoming

[TubeStack]

Its wider than the cabinet so keeping it on the bottom looks better (for me) vs T-stack and helps with bass coupling. Which is especially helpful in this room where it's like a total rig swallower.

Still not enough to override my internal "this is how things should be set up safely at a gig" system, sorry.

So circling back to the Stealth 50. The return window is rapidly approaching and I was still on that familiar fence about it. Gigged it once. I liked it a lot. But still wasn't fully sold using it for live work. Mainly because it not 100% working tonally with everything in my signal chain. As well as my F12s and IRs I am using with it. AKA don't ask.

I decided to give it a different kind of spin today. I took the headphone out and ran it to my III for post effects. Holy fucking fuck; if there ever was a Mandolorian opportunity; this was it

All channels and the built in cab emulation sounded FANTASTIC. Lordy So the BL will continue on for live work and the Stealth will stay for tubes in the "studio".

I need to try mine this way. I was contemplating letting it go to help out with some unexpected expenses and grabbing a 6505 Synergy module to pick up the slack. hmmmm.....

As far as direct from "loaded down" amp experiences go between the BL, the VII and the Stealth; I would say it is easily the best of the 3. Despite having probably what would be considered a comical load and cabinet emulation compared to the loads and emulation built in to the other amps. First time this way and wall but very impressed \m/

I bet there aren't many tube amps that don't kick ass with the Axe for FX!

It’s true, modelers -can- sound good once paired with tube power and a real cab






*ducks for cover*

I do agree that is where they shine the most. In my experience.

I love them with other powering/monitoring options, too. But yeah, tube
power and an actual guitar cab.
