    Are you talking about the randall amp with the little tone-module channels that you can buy separately and install in the amp for kind of a semi-customized amp?

    I am not familiar with the Randall amp but I suspect that its probably quite expensive and that you are going to pay for it until it becomes cheaper once they are better known. Also what about reliability? are they okay, can they handle the job, repairs etc etc.


    If you are set on the Vetta II and know what it does then go for that but how about the Fender Cyber Deluxe models - have you tried them out or even the Vox Valvetronix AD120 amp which is very good.

    Well, look at it this way. Everytime you want to change or tweak your sound youll have to buy another module. I'm familiar with that Randall amp and those modules are expensive, although I have seen them reduced on several of the online stores like M.F. or A.M.....


    If you get a POD you'll get all those sounds included and not have to pay additional $$$ for them. But if your planning on staying with one sound then get the Randall..........
