Ok I think I’m getting closer with the amp, but as ever I’ve been thinking a little too hard about what I want and inevitably I’ve gone down the ‘what if it could do this route’.
What I want is to prove a point. I’ve come to the conclusion recently that most guitar players in church only need about 7-8 watts in a small, easy to carry and great sounding tube amp which they can change sounds and colour with a few well chosen pedals. A well built 7 watt tube amp can compete with a drummer and be driven hard enough at church volumes to sound like it should without the sound man, backing vocalists and Pastor all saying ‘can you turn it down please?’ So many of us have bough the amp of our dreams only to find we can just about turn it up to 1.5 in the worship band.
