[youtube] My Hafler T2 preamp is driving me up the wall. It's 2 channels, sounds like a Fender to me. A bit too polite. Rather then keep throwing money at pedals to fix it, I decided to get another preamp and off the T2. I have a Rocktron Widowmaker incoming. Not too many clips around, but what I've heard I've liked. Even the Tone King's clip.
https://soundcloud.com/maltese-fan/widowmaker-test-clip It showed up yesterday. Recorded a quick sloppy clip, direct into TPA-1 and NADir.
I'm really digging it. I haven't gotten to crank it up with some volume yet, but for SS it sounds really pretty killer. It has a modded Marshall sound to me.
Awww...your clip took me back in time. Lovely memories. Upon hearing your first couple of notes I was reminded Possessed.
How does it sound boosted? Seems like it could get insane. Very authentic sounding as well. Reminds of why I played SS amps most of my life.
It does sound like a hot rodded Marshall already. I'm thinking it would get into Demanufacture territory when boosted.
