I just gave my Komet a short play...and loved it!!! WTF is going on???

[Young Angus]

What the heck is going on here, I was convinced a few weeks ago that my Komet was still stuffed and I was going to ship it back to the guys in the states to have a proper look at it, and I just turned it on and plugged it into my ENGL cab (vintage 30's) which I half expected to sound worse than the old Marshall cab with original 70's greenbacks in it, but it sounded superb!!!

I swear that amp is just playing with my emotions, whenever I expect it to sound crap it sounds good, and vice versa! I must admit it was with my strat that it sounded good and then when I plugged in my les paul it sounded like poo...well not total poo, but no where near as clear as my strat which had a JB bridge/virtual vintage blues middle/virtual vintage solo neck, but it sounded really good. I think there might be something funny with the power down at the rehearsal studio that I used it at last because it was there that it sounded pox, but maybe it just liked the vintage 30's better than the greenbacks. Well soon I'll have a g12h30 cab so that should go even nicer with it...the Komet looks a bit silly sitting on top of an ENGL cab :smack:

A hundred bucks says next time I turn it on it sounds terrible!

This is real easy to fix bro...just box it up and sent it to me. I'll play with it until it decides to sound right every time then I'll just send it back!:laugh2: :laugh2: :laugh2:

Anyway...FWIW, I go through the smae things...sometimes I love the tone an amp is giving me then the very next time it's justnot right...

i have had the same situation occur with much less 'top notch' gear ... i swear that there are little things and not so little thigns that must add up ... if power is unsteady, that has GOT to be a major thing .. if there is a little bit of schmutz in the switch/jack/cable/etc of the guitar or amp, it might do something

who knows!?

good luck

could be as simple as diferent volumes. an apm dosnt simply get louder when you crank the volume, it canges the tone. especially in tube amps, i have no idea if what you have is tubes though
