Oh, that "punch you in the face repeatedly if you buy it" thing literally made me laugh out loud. A real LOL. Funny shit.
Sometimes talking just ain't good enough :lol:

BMR's are great amps. However, as a former owner of one I sold it (just a few months back) and have never looked back. My suggestion was a combo based on the OP's thought of an Evil Twin.

If going the head and cab route I'd firstly say rethink. 6U rack with:
2U tubeworks/mosvalve poweramp
1U furman
1U tuner
1U SMS Preamp

You would be so good to go in any situation including one where you wanted to go old-School sans-effects.

Amen. Rock solid poweramps!



Hogan, agreed, Allen amps are very nice as well! But I prefer the reverb of Fargens as it's kinda like a cross between Fender and a studio verb which I love while Allen is a more traditional sounding reverb.

This is in my future. Just need to wait for the market to turn and I can sell my DSR at a decent price.

To get back tongue red knob twin. I thought I'd point out that in the "closing of winterland" DVD specials you can watch ( in horror?) as one of the producers "re-amps" jerry's signal through one of those red devils. So technically Jerry did play through one of those on at least one release. ; )

I just checked... it wasn't Winterland (which I have) must have been the "Grateful Dead" DVD (which I borrowed from the library.) My bad, but either way it definitely happened, or I'm totally delusional. ; )

Also some sort of spell check slipped the word "tongue" in there when I meant to type "to the"
