Re: [gsp-2101] Tube Replacement for my 2101 Artist - oh yeah 2101's kick ass

2005-07-11 by andrew wilkes

hey, whats up brian, i just read your email to the
group, i play my 2101 thru an A.D.A. 200 watt power, i
get way better tones than a marshal or mesa...they
don't have the gain like my 2101..i bought a new laney
100 watt head, they said it kicked ass at the music
store, but in reality it sucked ass, my 2101 sounds
way better, blows that piece a crap away, oh yeah, i
play mainly instrumentals and i'm also lookin for a
used eventide ultra harmonizer...shred lives on
!!...andy
