Can a Stage series amp obtain the Artisan sound?

[trock]

Hi

i recently purchased the HT Stage 60 and while i love this amp i came across the artisan series AFTER i bought this. the Blackstar youtube 15 watt artisan video is so good and exactly the distorted sound i want.

my question is if there is anyway to get the Stage series to sound like this?

i have the delay pedal and modulation pedal from blackstar as well

but so far i cannot come close to the cleans and distorted sounds of the artisan and they war what i want

the distortion pedals from blackstar also do not have that "sound"

any help would be appreciated

thanks

The Artisan is point-to-point hard wired amp, with better speakers/tubes/components and different circuit design. The stage 60 may be able to get close but for authentic sound, the Artisan is a whole different league by it self.

Sorry, but looks like you heart and fingers lay with the Artisan.....too late for an exchange?
