DetroitBlues Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 I'm a half a second away from pulling the trigger on a Tech 21 Trademark 60. You all know what I like to play... Thoughts?
tulk1 Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Thoughts? You'll sell it in ............. 2 weeks. Solid state amp. Don't think you'll like it in the end.
yoslate Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Had one. Used it...some. Liked it...sorta...for a bit. Sold it. Don't miss it. In other words, what Kenny said.
DetroitBlues Posted December 17, 2013 Author Posted December 17, 2013 Mesa Boogie Subway Rocket then?
Genericmusic Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 PM barrymclark and buy his Mesa Express 5:50
tulk1 Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Mesa Boogie Subway Rocket then? PM barrymclark and buy his Mesa Express 5:50 Either one!!
Yooper Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 I'd go for the Mesa 5:50. You'll have clean, crunch and gain all on one foot switch. These amps are infinitely tweakable.
davesultra Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Yeah, the Tech21 is good. But either of the Mesa amps would be great!

Blunote Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 What happened to your plans for an Evil Robot?
Redsand Posted December 17, 2013 Posted December 17, 2013 Hey, thanks for the leads!!! ........... ......... just joking. Leads……..Good one!
DetroitBlues Posted December 17, 2013 Author Posted December 17, 2013 What happened to your plans for an Evil Robot? I don't want to sell anything to buy an amp...
Guest HRB853370 Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 I don't want to sell anything to buy an amp... You don't have to. Keep everything and buy an amp. That is what I would do.
Gitfiddler Posted December 18, 2013 Posted December 18, 2013 DB~ I'm convinced from your posts that you really enjoy the hunt for new gear. It can be addictive. I know. I've got a similar issue. But back to your query about the Tech 21 T60 amp, they are great, but limited tonewise. Les Paul used one at the Aridium nightclub up until his passing. But he had one sound...one basic tone that he was after. CLEAN. The T60 gave that to him. Is that what you are currently looking for? If so, maybe a Roland Cube 80 would give better options. As a former owner of two Tech 21 amps (Trademark 10 and 30), they are merely OK. These days there are many better amps in the same or similar price range. Enjoy the hunt!

tbonesullivan Posted December 19, 2013 Posted December 19, 2013 I believe Greg at BCR music uses one for live situations. The Tech 21 pedals and amps are no joke. very well designed. awesome sound.
DetroitBlues Posted January 11, 2014 Author Posted January 11, 2014 I finally had a chance to play one today. I thought the overdrive, British tones were good. The Fender like channel was really thin. Over all, I'm glad I have my Traynor and didn't buy this. Great amp, just not for me. Might look into a Power Engine to play my iPad through.
Guest HRB853370 Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 I have my eye on a Mesa 5:50 which seems to be universally praised on this forum.
