It arrived today.
First impressions are: This is the dullest amp I've ever used! It's inherent character is quite pleasing to me. It's very gentle, very 'vanilla'. Nothing really offensive about it (apart from the faceplate).
The only retarded thing is the tone stack. The treble is set to boost at a really stupid point in the high mids, rather than the actual high frequencies, and the mid knob doesn't scoop enough around 700hz. So I'm thinking mods to add a sweepable mid and alter the center frequency of the treble control are in order.
For now though, here are some clips.
The familiar Rose of Sharyn DIs to make you suicidal: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/285689/Forum/Jeff Sharyn - Ermz Hector & Kalthalen Reamp.mp3
Something I'm working on now. 2 tracks of Mr Hector combined with 2 tracks of Framus Cobra (courtesy of Eddy Apolonia), both completely 100% raw: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/285689/Knightmare/Cobra & Hector.mp3
Cobra needs some de-fizzing, and Hector needs some high passing, but we'll sort all that in the mix!
