Yea that's the one I was referring to, 70's vintage ones, guess it's not actually a FX loop. Did/does that echo loop work well for you?

I'd throw a Traynor into the ring with a Mig-50, decent blend of clean and dirty.
YBA1 and Mig-50 are based on the same circuit with very few modifications.

And from my understanding, the same circuit can be found in the YBA3, YRM, YSR, YVM, YMCA, etc. from Traynor, only adding things like more power, reverb, tremolo, fx loops.

So, I'd look at somewhere else for contrast if I were one of those guys.

Huh. I'll admit I don't have a lot of Mig-50 time under my belt, but the ones I've played got pretty toothy pretty fast, whereas my YBA3 will break up speakers before even remotely getting close to what I consider amp distortion. Mind you, I don't have a master volume. There might be differences in B+ voltage, output iron, etc afoot too.
