Terror stomp


The amp-at-your-feet idea isn't new - we knew this. EHX & Seymour Duncan currently have them in their catalog. Many of us are wondering what practical purpose it serves since performance venues are equipped with amps anyway. That's exactly the issue right there - those are not our preferred amps. We can quickly put stomp box amps to use because we know these had been tried & tested by us & it would replicate our preferred tone. Also, it acts as a back up if the performance amp suddenly stops working like they always do in crucial times. 

The Orange Terror Stamp here appeals to us in terms of pricing (MSRP - USD199) considering it's tube driven. Yes, we love to hear hot, cooked up tubes in action & it's possible with this one through the pre-amp stage. Of course, do manage expectations because such things are designed to serve a purpose & it's not as established as non-portable amps.

if only they could manage to power it up with standard 9V (centre negative) DC adapter, that would be a huge win
