Yeah. TBH, I like it as-is. I just want to kinow if I'll be able to play around with it.
Funny thing is the sound did change a whole lot more when I briefly ran it at 18V compared to the Duncan 805 which you can actually run at 18V without any risk.
I tried recording it DI, and the headroom is GREATLY increased, when the 805's waveform barely changes at all.
I tend to fall in and out of love with my 805. This is the third I've had. I'm going to keep it for the time being, but right now, I'm liking the 808 better, TBH. There's a certain raspy/dirty quality to the 808's clipping that sounds nice that the 805 doesn't quite replicate. That, and the output on the 808 is hotter.
