Hey bro! I tend to prefer simple amps and an amp like the VM that cleans up well with the guitar volume to get my cleans, would be fun and old school!!! Two of the best amps I have heard with pedals is the Mesa Electra Dyne and the Fryette Sig:X, not to mention a Marshall Plexi or JMP.
Can the Vintage Modern take pedals well?
So, concerning the 2466, how does the amp sound at low volume?
I am a big fan of EL34s and I see the VM amps use KT-66 tubes. Any good?
These all sound great but I would like to hear it with a boost for heavy rock.

I a aso looking at the JVM and the new JVM Satriani model. These all sounds great. Only thing that sucks, I find the Satriani JVM sounds better than stock, but t costs a lot more, even used it is around $1600-$1700. I am sick of spending so much on amps. Maybe the Vintage Modern with some boosts and OD pedals could give me cleans to classic Marshall to Tool. :)
As long as the build is good and reliable.
I heard the BMW vs Ford argument above but I think in the end tone is king. I know a buddy of mine took a $2500 Fryette, new Dual Rectifier and his used DSL 50 to a gig, he used a different amp for each set. We all chose the DSl for tne and where it sat in the mix. So, in this case, the Ford beat the Ferrari and BMW, LOL!
Anyway, I am looking at the Mesa Electra Dyne, Orange Rockerverb 50, Marshall JVM or Satch, and the Vintage Modern.
Great demo!

After watching some cips, the VM2466 is toping my list! I have always wanted a modern Marshall style amp that was sensitive to volume control so I could jst clean up withthe volume to get shades of gain and then boost with pedals for heavy modern rhythm or leads.
