I guess I'll have to check out the NT.When i think of cleans,i think of steely Dan.I haven't really tried to get a super clean out of the Egnater yet.It kind of depends on who stops over to play.So far we defiantly got a few different tones.I really do mean defiantly,cause it fought us all the way.The tones are there,there just hard to get.

To me, there's 'clean clean' and there's 'dirty clean'. A Vox I think is one of those that is good for dirty clean. I.e. it sounds great on that edge of breakup where it's not clean, but it's not really distorted in an obvious way either. Various types of amps are good at that, but Voxes seem to be one of the amps that are particularly so. It's like the initial hit is enough to push it over into breakup, for a nice quick crunch, but it comes right back out to a nice, chimey tail. That kind of thing.
And it seems to me that that kind of sound often works well recorded, where the amount of distortion you'd want live is way too much for recording purposes in a lot of case.
