I'm looking into getting my first tube head. I currently have a Marshall AVT50, but it's just not cutting it anymore. Our bass player has moved to synth and his amp is destroying mine. Also, my drummer has recently admitted that he can't hear me at all during shows, let alone at practice.
I play really bass heavy guitar (I actually have the bass knob on my current head turned up all the way with the mid and treble around 4). I like really dirty, jammy sounding tone and a decent amount of distorted. I just bought an equalizer pedal though, so I can modify the sound anyway.
I know Orange has a dirty sound I'm looking for I believe, but I've come across http://www.AdamsAmps.com and am interested in those. Anyone ever use or hear anything about his 100 watt heads? The only concern I have is if I don't like the sound, I may have trouble selling it since the brand isn't well known.
I've played and heard Marshall JCMs (I think that's what is was) and find them too crunchy and trebly for my taste.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be awesome. I know tube heads are expensive, but any recommendations would be appreciated, I could always save up.
