Yes that seems to be a nice amp to have. Enjoy it!

I recently got a great deal on a SCXD and I think it's the best value for the money out there. I've tried a lot of solid state and modelling amps and none of them are really satisfactory as far I'm concerned. You've got to have tubes to get an organic, saturated tone. Clean tones are also superior on a tube amp. I even like the modelled amp tones and effects on the SCXD.

After messing with an epiphone valve jr., I ditched it for the SCXD a few months ago. Not only is it a great deal at $299, it sounds good stock.

I just put a ragin' cajun and electroharmonix 12AX7 pre tube in. And MAN now it is the best little amp i've ever owned! I can get any sound I want but tend to stay with the 1, 4, 8 settings (tweed, blackface, british overdrive). with my powerhouse strat, I can get it to distort on the clean just the right amount, and in the overdrive, it's just smooth creamy distortion.

I tried the Tung Sol 12AX7 and didn't like how jangly it was, the EH is smoother. For $15, I recommend it!

Congratulations, Paulie. I have had mine for about 4 months now, and I love it. I don't think I will ever get tired of it. Great little versatile amp with a wonderful tone.

Play on, my brother, play on...
