I got both my HXDA and my DG30 in 2014. I've taken great care of both, stocked them with NOS tubes, kept them up to snuff, etc. The HXDA has been my designated #1 amp ever since. Why? I've previously played it more. #1 ought to be a player's go-to instrument, right?
Well, I still love the HXDA, but this year I've actually been using the DG30 more. I realized that today when I instinctively flipped the power switch on the DG30 and not the other amps. I did the same thing yesterday, and probably the week and the month before, too, with the other amps sprinkled in from time to time.
Of course I used my other amps in this period when I wanted to deploy other tones. Nonetheless, lately my instinct has been to go straight to the DG30 and say there.
Things change over time, tastes change, and it's nice to have options. I simply don't know why or how this happened.
Then again, it's possible I'm just a slow learner...I mean, it took me 9 years to figure this out?
I wonder if that will change again. One thing that hasn't changed is that the PRS amps get used more than my Mesas, and I really, really like my Mesas, so that tells me a lot.
