  • Controversial Amplifier Hot Takes

    Greenbacks are superior to Vintage 30s in every way except power handling.

    Have a nice day.

      I like the v30 when it's mixed with other speakers, but not on it's own.

        I love greenbacks. I currently have a pair in an Avatar modern (slightly oversize) cabinet. It really helps add a bit more low mids and lows without being overbearing. Perfect for the grungy stuff I'm playing now.

          Green amps sound better than Orange ones.

            ^ Someone finally got where I was going with this.

            Just say something disagreeable and not provably wrong. Have fun with it. It's not meant to be a Greenback v. Vintage 30 thread.

                  A lot of tube amps sound mediocre and some sound really bad.

                        There's nothing a high gain amp can do that a clean amp with a few pedals can't do better.

                          Polytones were built for size and convenience, and sound like ass. Every single jazz guitarist that uses them would sound better through a Princeton.

                            Running distortion pedals into a clean amp is the worst way to get high gain tone.
