My quest for my first guitar amp finally came to an end a couple weeks ago when I finally found and bought a Mesa Boogie Lonestar Special! Man this thing is awesome… Now granted I haven’t been playing for years and don’t have a ton of amps to compare it to but this thing sounds amazing. I’ve been playing it for a few weeks now and I’m blown away by the tone. As of now I’m using my Vox Tonelab SE with the fx loop (all modeling turned off) for delay, chorus, reverb, wah, volume & tuner. It remains to be seen if I end up selling the Tonelab and move to individual stomp boxes (we’ll see). The selectable output wattage is an awesome feature of the amp allowing me to choose from 5,15 or 30 output watts. So now I’m able to get great tone using my Sennheiser E609 mic in a small to medium size venu with out deafining those around me (and keeping the sound techs happy).
