Have a Raodster Combo, considering a Shiva combo as well

[joe187]

I am trying to downsize and want to buy a second combo. I have a 2x12 Roadster. I am considering a 6L6 2x12 Shiva. I have heard many good things. However I am concerned that I am buying something very similar to what I have now. Is this the case or is the Shiva a different animal?

Thanks

Joe

but, me personally, as heavy as the combo is (and depending on which speakers you put in it, sounds really really good!) and it's way heavy, i'd opt for a head/cab setup.

my friend had a 6l6 head, and that's the one i got to work out on.

he's sold it, unfortunately, i couldn't afford to nab it at the time, but to me, it's the perfect compliment to the boogie sound.

me, i'd get the shiva head, and a 2x12 cab (boogie, avatar, etc) then you've got the ability to mix and match, and not break your back, and try different rigs......
