I think the amp rocks sorry guys [/list][/url]
this amp is getting a real bad rap first off but i think its because poeple lack the understanding of the designmloiaco said:I'm in love with the Stiletto. The only thing that keeps me away is the lack of a "recto-ish" sounding channel. Of course, this amp was not designed to do that, but I need something versatile enough to give me the cleans and crunch of the Stiletto and the high-gain sustain of the triple-rec.
i love this amp also really differant than your run of the mill mesacvansickle said:I've tried the Deuce. LOVE IT!

ValveHeavyTone said:the clean is superve compared to the recto much more life in its character. the crunch is very dynamic kind of 3-d if you would .as far as leads go i would not give up your plexis or mark series or any thing but the lead channel can be very imppresive to say the least ,go ahead and pick one up from guitar center and if you dont like take it back .p.s. oh yea i forgot about the clean boost the stiletto loves a clean boost crammed down her throat :lol:

Do you think that the Mark IV can give the brilliant Ch 1 of the Stiletto and the high-gain sustain of the recto? If so, I would really appreciate it if you posted some settings, or at least some hints for a starting point. I tried a Mark IV a while back, but I only had about 10 minutes with it, so obviously, I couldn't judge anything about the amp. If you could post some settings for achieving a Stiletto Ch 1. clean sound and a Recto-ish high-gain sound, then I could go dial them into a Mark IV at my local GC.
Erik said:Personally, I love the way the Stiletto sounds. I think too many people expect to hear "Powerball" or "Uberschall" type of gain from them. I like the way the Stiletto allows you to convey the actual tone of the guitar. Less gain usually means more cut and bigger sound in a live app.

I've been looking into this amp also, as I think it sounds like it's the right one for me and what I would like it to do. Got a couple quick questions though. Can this amp give me a pretty good GNR type hard rock tone? Not too distorted but also not too wimpy? And does the dirty channel on these amps sound really modern and nu metalish like most Rectos, or is it more of a Classic Rock type?
Thanks!
