1896? Twin leads on acoustic guitars are pretty awesome. Oz is getting old.

They died to me ...............

While the members of Stryper are soldiers who are easily commanded, Stryper's command of the Mesas was quite elusive, apparently.

I don't know that I would go "insane" quite yet...

While I am a Line 6 guy, and play the L6/Bogner Spider Valves live quite a bit, I have heard that the DT50 has had some serious problems, especially in channel & "Topology" switching. Sometimes failing to switch all together, most other times having tremendous noise and such. I actually came across one review that related something like "the loud clicking and popping lets you know that its working" (paraphrased of course). Not sure what in the world that is all about. I guess I have different expectations of any amp.

Don't own one myself, but have started to do research on them as I thought this might be a cool idea. In reality, it kinda looks like the DT50 is almost twice the price, and not quite all of the amp that the Spidervalve Bogners are. Most that have played them have related a common theme of "please work out the bugs."

Might be great if they correct the issues - and drop the price so that it is nowhere near the cost of a Mesa. I think the 2x12 retails for $1500. That seems insane.

Amen to that

You know they get paid to play those amps right? Endorsements are rarely cause its your choice of gear, but the company will line your pockets to be seen using it. And it works, "Stryper plays Line 6 so they can't suck that bad right?"
