I tried it at home, but it's of course way too loud, so I went to the rehearsal place, even though it wasn't our slot, and there was no-one there, so I started to set up. Immediately, the band whose slot it was arrived, so I had exactly 4 minutes of gig volume testing
Impressions after 4 minutes
1) It's LOUD!!! I tried it on half-power, but I couldn't tell the difference in the time available...
2) It sounds TERRIFIC!!! You pick lighter and it clears up. You max the guitar volume and it howls wonderfully. With the neck pickup it doesn't get muddy - sounds like Clapton with Cream sort of thing... Big chords ring out - it's a whole lot more focused and precise-sounding than my Red Bear, for example.
3) I'm HAPPY!!!!!!
