Rivera Fandango VS....?

trippled · 05-17-2008, 12:29 PM

Well after alot of discussions and alot of times ive played on the amp im pretty sure that this is my amp.
Im going to buy this week but before that i just wanna here your opinions and other options i might consider a second before im finally buying my first tube head.
My requirements:
1. Good clean channel.
2. Areally good distortion channel, something in the direction of the uberschall in terms of voicing.
3. My budget? 1500-2000$.

Thanks,
Get ready for a new NAD thread this week

Trippled.

Not having a go, but this is the 16th thread you've asked for recommendations from everyone. I'm sure that half the amps you mention, most people, if any people, haven't even played one.

If you've played the amp, and it does what you want, buy it.

trippled · 05-17-2008, 12:37 PM

Youre absolutely right bro but i really wanna be sure that im doing the right decision for me.

stuh84 · 05-17-2008, 12:39 PM

Well that is exactly what I, and everyone in all the threads has been getting at. Only you know if its the right decision for you.

Do you know how many people I asked about buying my amp? No-one, I played it and knew it was the one for me. I then bought it, I now own it, and I didn't spend 5 months wondering if people would dissuade me from what I want to do.

Seriously, dude, just buy what YOU want.

I fucking knew you'd open up another topic about this... You're the most indecisive person I know, and I know some very indecisive people.

You fucking love this amp.
You say it's the tone you hear in your head, it satisfies all of your tonal desires.
It's in your budget.
It's actually in stock, in Israel.

WHAT IS THERE TO THINK ABOUT?!

Stop thinking about this shit so hard and just get this amp, because playing it, with the sound you love makes you happy.

That's it. That's what this is all about. How you feel when you play the amp. That's why you can dig up and keep looking for an amp for years, hear recommendations from tons of people, but in the end, you need to make the choice by how you feel, and if you find an amp that sounds like what you want, there is no point in keeping digging in this shit anymore.

Just don't think, and go get it, I assure you, you won't regret it.

and the fandango is an awsome amp indeedo :}

ChrisPcritter · 05-18-2008, 01:15 AM

I can't picture a person that would play it and say they don't like it.. It may not be everyones first choice but as they said in the previous posts, if that's your first choice buy it and get some pics up Like these...

Mine has a boost mod done to it so you can dial in the amount of gain and clean (ninja) boost it has.
