It's not just the kiddos going to modelers boys. Me, if I was a strat I'd be an L series to give you some idea. I have a room full of amps. My wife says too many. A lot of the ones mentioned here. But for the past three years I've played my Helix almost exclusively. It has models of all these great amps and I'm able to take the tones of a dozen classic amps to a gig and only need to make one trip between the car and the stage. I'd never throw shade on the guys who want hot glass on stage but, for what I'm doing, my Helix fills the bill.
These amp do $2000 by now ????
Vox NightTrain G2.
I own a '74 Silverface Deluxe Reverb ????
Absolutely wonderful ❤️
lol pretty sure I figured out the name for a goatee
Road to 100K
If you can find one, the Crate V series of amps and the Palomino variations are absolutely brilliant sounding. Both the crunch and the clean channels are very useable as they are and, I'd argue that the clean channels supersede a lot of Fenders as pedal platforms.
Recently traded my ac15 for a silvertone twin twelve head. Different tonal palates but i adore them both.
Mate, AC15 are 24Kgs, had to sell mine for that….
Fender Musicmaster Bass amp for guitar.
I have a JC 40 and its amazing
Very off topic but I haven’t noticed the guitar on the far right before anyone happen to know what it is?
What do you think of Gries amps?
Here's a Blues Deluxe drive channel tip. Put a Wampler Belle in front of it.
I got a Super Reverb for $750 last month in excellent condition too.
Ehhh I got an upgraded speaker and transformer classic 30 for 450 bucks! Wouldn’t mind a Princeton though!
Always enjoy your videos guys , I m an Orange ???? fan , but I tried out a PRS Sonzera 20 the other day and was pleasantly surprised , it a great amp , I think I’ll grab one ,you can get great deals on them used
I recall a Teisco Checkmate 100 head that was left at our house in the late 70s. It was low fidelity but would distort .
My man is drunk
I played my first gig with more than 20 people in the room in 1969. Two days before, I realized I needed a bigger amp ( I was only 17 then LOL). So I found a "Fender" in the local Penny Saver. Got to the guys house and he rolled out (literally!) a 1 year old Silver Face Twin w/JBL's, with a cover, on wheels. LOL I found out why, it weighed ~80lbs, we joked 1W/lb. LOL I had never played a twin before, and the JBL's didn't mean anything at the time. (The guy was a steel player). I turned it on for the first time 30 minutes before we started. I'm sure everyone knows the rest of that story!! 8) Peace –gary
I have a Vox AC15 and when I plug in my LP it is the sound I want. Those two together are magic for me. But when I was a kid I had a Haynes Jazz King and that thing was ballsy. Solid state, two 12s, weighed a ton but sounded awesome. I had a Fender Mustang and a Gretsch Tennessean (still have the Gretsch, wish I still had the Mustang) and that Haynes was just great.
Fender Super Six is a sleeper amp that usually gets overlooked. Yes, they are huge but they sound great. Really loud too.
Will it chug?
Classic 30 was my first tube amp. I paid $300 for it used from a guy in St. Petersburg in 2010.
