Hi there dt,
Also got mine the other day and it completely rips ass. Different tones & unique sounds abound in this little 3-watt monster. Agree on the old-school sound that Sebastian was getting. Easily done with a bit of tweaking. I've found the L&M head works well with an Avatar 212 loaded with Celestion Blues @ 8 ohms or my Tungsten 112 with a custom-made Weber Jensen type speaker made especially for Tungsten Amplification. I've also found that the L&M particularly likes the new Audio-Technica ATM650 dynamic microphone. Tried a bunch of great ribbons too (Beyer M160/ M130, Royer R-122, Nady RSM-8A etc.) with good success. This amplifier records amazingly well and has very defined sounds that skip musical genres with EASE. This might be the most unique small amplifier in history.....Thick, creamy, and versatile. Clean tones sound good recorded as well. I've played several Les Pauls, Jeff Beck Strat, 57 Reissue Strat & my Telecaster too. Next I will try Gretsches, ES-335 and of course a good Firebird...That ought to kick ass as well. Great work Alex and Bjorn--BRAVO. Lovin' it to death. The EFX Loop is also really good too.
