Maybe

But seriously, I'd always planned on getting an orange one day, then yoshiaki confirmed it for me, and it is a great amp. I was only looking for a decent used 30HTC, but then I was offered the 140HTC with cab for less than the 30HTC from new. So I bite his arm off. I got the Big Muff because of him though, I was running a DS-1 and never really got on with it, but the big muff is my kind of thing, I just need a GE-7 to get a better tone from it.

John Frusciante, David Gilmour, Jimi Hendrix and Jonny Greenwood for my clean, pretty playing.

Kurt Cobain, Kim Thayil, James Iha/Billy Corgan and Jimmy Page for distorted playing.

Also, due credit to my guitar techer Aubrey for teaching me to think otuside the box and not be a boring idiot. Rather, I'm a nonsensical and modeal idiot.

Finally, to the USA Big Muff for teaching me what fuzz is, and making me want more. Seriously, playing through a Big Muff gave me as much inspiration as Hendrix...is that wierd?

I'd really like to try an Orange again. I've only played the Tiny Terror, and it was only for a minute or two. Do they sound good clean? I mean...do they have a clean channel haha. The Tiny Terror was just a little box full of British crunch.
