So, I played my first gig with the new Band I'm playing with. During rehearsals I have been using My Trusty Practice amp. A 60 watt 1x12 Blackstar Combo and while its been outfitted with a Scumback speaker and good pre/power tubes it doesn't sound too bad. However the singer/Rhythm Guitar player Thinks it sounds AMAZING, he uses a Line 6 DUOTONE? At the gig I brought OLD FAITHFUL my SRZ RH and My Z 2x12 Loaded Gold/Scum J Cab It sounds HUGE like a 4x12 Literally , It Annihilated the Digital 2x12 Line 6 combo , he was SHAKING His head in Audio Disbelief, Exact words were "I may need to get a Better Sounding Amp" ! LOL!!!! Played everything from Man in The Box to Sweet Home Alabama. Truly a Master Built Work of Art!!! The SRZ Ad Should read "HAIL TO THE KING"!! KING OF TONE!!!!

I agree with you completely Jamie! I have three versions of the SRZ - the 6545, the SRZ LE, and the original SRZ 65RC. All sound different but I love each one! It's funny I have a Line 6 Duoverb as well!

Those were Z watts too, Jamie, so you probably had effectively two to three times the raw power of the Line 6.
Not to beat up on Line 6, but I used to have one of their Flextone II amps. I think it was 40 watts or so. A Fender Pro Jr with a good OD pedal destroyed it tonally -- at 4 on the PJr volume.
