what do you ugys think?

UGYS, UGYS, who you callin' UGYS ?!?!

There is quite a lively discussion on this subject going on in another thread titled something like Tube Snobbery, or Snob Tubery, or Jon Bonjovery.


As far as my opinion, I don't care for the modeling amps much. I have a Line 6 flextone 2 in my garage for the last year that belongs to my church. I messed with it for a whole evening once.

But yeah my friend... we're gonna tell you to go ahead and buy a real tube amp... And then to answer your next question - they're not as expensive as you think... and to answer your NEXT question - just go check out Tube Snobbery or any SolidState vs. Tube Amp thread.
