OT: Guidance needed... pros/cons/difference between a 6505, 6505+ and jSX?

[AudioPhile777]

I'm thinking of picking one up and I can't find a dealer that has all 3 in stock at one time to test right next to each other...

btw... I think this is the most I've posted in one day so far... I'm really bored at work tonight, lol.

Put on your Flak Jacket dude and your helmet.

You might just get hammered for asking such an original question.

Try "Search". Not trying to be rude, just trying to help.

 

[AudioPhile777]

I'm going to catch flack, I figured... but I never have any luck with the search function... and I debated thoroughly before posting this.. but I'm ready for the bullets to start flying... or if anyone could link me from their search results, that would be swell...

Also, we have an equipment forum for this

ha ha ha... oh yeah...

Can you tell me how to move it there (if I can do it at all)?

 

[Metal Overload]

Dont worry, brett will do it

 

[AudioPhile777]

Yeah, that kinda makes me feel bad to have him do it after i see him chastising other members for doing it...

sucks...

anyway... Brett if/when you read this thread... go ahead and delete it... I think I got the search thingy working... ::hangs head in shame::

If you like clean tones and versatility, get a JSX and slot some 6l6's into it and use a preboost. If you don't need a clean channel and like a bit more agression in the tone, get a 6505/+

I may be buying a 5150 for $550... the guy is selling it cause he isn't going to make rent...

So, I guess this is where I get an awesome amp for relatively cheap.

Actually that is about the right price for a well maintained used 5150, but if you have that offer on the table I would def. take it. The 5150 is pretty comparable to the 6505, both are sick amps in my opinion. You can't go wrong. Good luck bro

Be careful with brand new 6505s though, a lot of people have problems with them. The fuses blow, the gain sometimes drops completely out (as if you'd be playing with gain at 0) and some other problems.

5150 deal fell through. guy never call me back...

6505 having problems? damnit...
