orange tiny terror and marshall vintage modern

[olfunk]

so i was in sound control today and i noticed that one of those new orange tiny terror amps was wired up to a marshall 4x12 so i thought to myself "why not try it" so i picked up a fender jag and plugged in, and i was actually quite impressed that for the size it was giving me fair power, with a pretty nice tone.

i was then talking with a guy i know who works in there and he said "we just got in the new marshall, wanna try it?" again i thought "why not?" and plugged the jag in. this i was not so impressed with. im not quite sure what i was expecting, but this certainly wasn't it. the guy i was talking to said "i dont really like it because it doesn't really do what i want it to" i thought "fair enough, that's why there's different amps for different purposes" but to me this just sounded a bit like one of those 30 watt solid state amps that doesnt do anything brilliantly well, but you can sorta do a lot of stuff on it, if you get me. but yeah i was surprised how it really wasn't amazing.

maybe it needed cranking, although at one point i had it pretty loud. who knows? the jag i was playing sounded good thru an ENGL tube combo not long ago so i dont think it was that.

anyone had any experience with these amps yet?

Was the new Marshall as disappointing as the last ones.

No the jcm2000, they sound like pure fizz. Nothing like the older Marshalls.
