Title: Overtone HRM - Cleans Question
Post by: AdrianJ on September 19, 2008, 10:29:40 AM
How do the cleans on the HRM compare to those of the normal OTS?

I know the main difference between a HRM and non-HRM D'type is the extra tone-stack in the OD side of the amp, but has Nik changed any values that affect the clean side?

I'm very soon to be getting a new amp and am absolutely torn between the OTS, OTS-HRM or a Fender Vibro-clone.

Basically, will I want to get a big, warm, pristine hi-fi clarity clean sound out of the amp. Not too bothered about OD sounds as I'd largely use pedals for those, but I've heard that HRM d-types get closer to Marshall OD sounds, so that would tend to push me in that direction, but the clean tones are much more important to me.

PS: I'm a strat player....

As far as I can see clean ch is very much the same. OD CH sounds smother and thicker on the HRM to me.

he has hiwatt clones now as well if your into the big cleans, obviously a model favoured by a certain black strat guitarist.
