Re: New Fender Metalhead amp
Why is a company notorious for guitars producing thin and twangy sounds, a la single coils, trying to build a heavy hitting high distortion amp. I can't remember the last time in this last decade that I saw a metal guitar player using anything other than humbuckers.... well, at least metal players with good tone. And what is with this trend of high watt solid state amps? Doesn't the fact that tube amps, after how many long years now, are still around say something about their superiority? If fender wants to sell me a piece of solid state electronics they need to produce a nice, cheap big screened t.v.
