I own a fireball and with the right tubes that thing is killer rehearsal and bedroom volumes. The other guitarist/singer in the band I was in went out and got the powerball. We did side by side comparisons, both were f*cking killer in their own ways. I thought both of them were scooped, and the powerball would get muddy with the extra low end controls though.

One of the bands I played a show with tonight had their dual recs fuse go out. I let him borrow my head so I got to hear how the Pball sounds out in the crowd for a whole show.

the other guitarist has a 6505 and it was not comparison - I hate to say it, but my Pball sounded LOADS better. Clearer, tighter, crunchier, etc.

I've never played a Fireball, but it didn't sound muddy at all and I never had a problem (don't use the deep button engaged or whatever its called and don't turn the bass up too high).

I adore what I have become.
