I got a chance to play the new 64 DR HW amp on Wednesday. It sounds like a really good vintage DR (at least in the shop)-sweet and quiet. I really like that they've gone with the bias modulating trem, always felt that sounded better than the LDR roach and it's easier to make quiet (no thump). Seems like a no-brainer... EXCEPT that Sweetwater has partnered with Rivera to build the modded 68 DR Custom-which gives you a bunch of other choices for the bright channel, including a master volume and presence-sort of like the modded Fenders you could buy from Rivera (Valley Arts?) back in the day. And of course, Sebago Sound will give you an Ultraphonix or ODS modded DR for a little more money. So, if you had $3k burning a hole in your pocket, which one would you choose? Not that I'm looking:laugh2:
