Re: Sell the TS9?
EASY DECISION! The TS9 is distinctly different than the TTC. The TTC can't really take the place of the TS9, because of the clean/grit combination nature of the TS9. I would use the TS9 along with the TTC. I'd use it in front just like the front end of a tube amp. So here's my surprising conclusion:
Sell the TS9! You can get 98% of what you want from the TS9 out of a Tubulator. Get a Tubulator, if not now, then wait until they get real cheap again, or wait until you have the extra funds. Then you'll always have a TS9 clone in your arsenal, plus you'll pick up some extra cash in the process. The point I'm trying to make is, the TTC is a unique sound unto itself. You've had a taste, so now you'll be gassing for one constantly until you get one. If selling the TS9 creates the shortest distance between you and the TTC, then do it!
