Hi All,
I just bought an empty RM50 combo on eBay and am trying to decide what modules to buy for it. I've been reading posts on the board for a couple weeks and listened to many sound clips but I'm still undecided. I have no place within at least 65 miles of me that has anything in stock that I can try out, so I need to depend on you all for advice on what to get.
I play Country, Classic Rock (70's and 80's) and Blues. I have a pretty good pedal board, Barber Tone Press, Barber Direct Drive, MXR Carbon Copy, Visual Sound Liquid Chorus, Old Dunlop Cry Baby, EB VP Jr volume pedal and BBE Boosta Grande.
The amps I use most of the time are a Genz Benz Black Pearl 30 1X12 and a modified Fender Blues Jr. I like Fender cleans and EL84 cleans and for overdrive, in the past I've owned some Rivera amps that had a nice tone, and R30 and an R100. A nice Marshally tone I guess is what I'm looking for I guess, something that can do 70's and 80's tones.
For guitars I primarily use an Anderson Drop Top Classic with three mini humbuckers, a Fender Strat and Fender Tele.
I've been thinking about the Blackface and the SL+ but as I can't hear them anywhere with any of my guitars I can't make good decision. The amp I bought has 6L6's in it and I don't think I'm going to get that chimey EL84 class A tone from it or I'd be thinking about a Blackface and a top boost or super V.
Any help any of you can offer would be greatly appreciated.
