Was that amp any good?

Nik thought it was the greatest thing ever made on God's green earth.  Until he heard the K1000 and then that was the greatest thing ever on the planet ever made.  And then he heard the HD600 and that was the be all end all.  The best sound ever that he would never part with.   Then he heard an Air Tight amp and the heavens opened up and he was attached to the great Buddha in the sky (it is a Japanese amp, after all).  Then he heard JJ 300Bs and they were like electrical morphine.  Then he heard Sophia Electric and there was a Chinese firedrill in his loins.  Then he heard the Western Electric 300B and it was all over for him.  His head exploded.  His estate has been in probate ever since...

At any point did he actually listen to the damn music?  That's what I hate about these kind of people.  It's not about the music; it's about being a gear whore.

whatever i have is always the best. fuck everybody that isn't me.

Was he the one that was into the Rudi shit a long time ago (when Kevin and Rudi got into it on HF?) Might be thinking of the wrong guy...

He was pushing hard for Rudi back in the day, convinced it was actually good.  I think he might even have had the ECC83/EL34 Egmont which I'd love to hear.  No way that sounded good or even decent...
