V2 into a 5e3 or Swart is a thing of aural beauty!

Donner, what is this Honey Bair? :drooling

If you like the Honey Bee through the 5e3 try and track down a Honey Beeatch as it gives you a more independent control of bass and treble. You can look at the list below and see what I like through my Victoria 20112 and Swart amps.

yeah the Honey Bairs are a few weeks away, but that could be a good solution - the fourth knob controls the 'blanket' on the Bee so you can match it to your speakers better ....

I would like to try one but I am really very satisfied (can I say that around here ;) ) with the HBOD and the 5e3

Luckily after the 17 month wait I just got mine in the mail yesterday.. no high gain stuff though, just regular. I'm even more pumped about the SYv2 though..

SO, the Honey Bair is a Beeatch in Bear clothing?

Just got an HBOD or a KoT? hard to go wrong with either to be honest...

So, any consensus on the Bearfoot SYOD? One unit with switches? Two different units altogether? Some crazy 2-in-1 monster of tone? Will the paint sparkle? I am partial to a good metal flake. I can't lie, they always look so good. Since I'm from Pittsburgh I am obligated (by law, I believe) to say that black text would look quite good on a yellow metal flake box.
