Someone just offered a Rocktron Vendetta head to me in trade... while I wasn't really in the market for another amp, after spending time reading the manual and some magazine/HC reviews, I'm really intrigued by this amp.
On paper, at least, it sounds like a TOL100 on steroids. Since I once owned a Rocktron TOL100 combo and thought it was one of the coolest amps ever, I'm now giving serious consideration to picking up the Vendetta, since it looks like it has a few improvements over the TOL (dual FX loops, self-biasing, more voicing switches).
So the question(s):
- Does anybody here own a Vendetta? Anybody even played one?
- If so, anything you can compare it to tonally?
- Better yet, can you compare it to a TOL100?
As for me, I'm not in a gigging band right now... I do home recording of original rock & instrumental tunes. I also jam around with friends on a bunch of guitar-oriented covers from the 60's through today. Since I've still got my Randall MTS rig, I've got a lot of variety covered there, so in the Vendetta I'd be looking for something that sounds a little more unique.
Thanks in advance for any perspective you can provide!
