RE: The Spark

A guy needs his toys. Women may buy less gadgets, but they tend to spend a lot on hair, clothes, toiletries etc. Mind you, all those amps could be seen as excessive. I've got my eye on some better cymbals. Got gigs coming up and need to sound good. Those things can be expensive. The joy of drums is that you can keep adding to the kit.

Sort:  

They do indeed have their own expenses which mount up!

The new one I am aiming for is a direct upgrade of the original so I might sell the original. I like the ones I have but the old original will probably go unused. It is a fine thing tho. The only real complaints about it were that it was a bit bassy but I quite like that.

You can never get to the end of adding to the kit! :OD

I actually just saw a review of that new amp and thought of you. I've got a couple, but hardly use them. My Roland was the cool modelling amp at the time, but things have moved on. Also got a proper valve amp, but that needs to be loud.

Yeah its the loudness that is the issue which is why I like these ones. I have a lovely vox valve amp which is awesome but as you say, it has to be sufficiently loud and doesn't sound as good low.

I am on it tomorrow. Twitching those fingers to buy!
