Really helpful, same with my situation, thank you bro

The thing is that any amp is as good as its parts. A cheap pos tube amp will still be a bad amp. Likewise a high end solid state properly built will be as good as a tube amp. The stigma against ss stems from cheap practice amps. But back in the day before they were made to be that they had some solid hits with ss amps. The peavey range certainly springs to mind and the bandits up till the red stripe were all amazing. Marshall had some epic ss offerings like the 2199 and the later master leads in the 80s. Fender and yamaha had ss amps designed by Paul Rivera and they kicked ass. The only one really left is the roland jc which is more of a pedal amp imo. The digital crap does not sound analog either. Thing is with the price of tube amps these days theres a real demand to bring good solid state back again. The orange cr60 is probably the spiritual successor to the bandit. But hiwatt now has their leeds series out, randall is still around too. Ss amps when done right are just as good as anything else with added reliability. Vox had some epic ss amps back in the day too and keef used an ss vox on cant you hear me knocking. Companies should look to properly reissue some of these amps the right way. An mia peavey bandit solo w the scorpion is a must, a marshall 2199 is a must, vox has the super beatle and other ss stuff from the 60s they could do. The rivera fenders shit on any tonemaster and they could work with him to make solid recreations of super reverbs and bassmans rather than this digital stuff. Orange is doing it right with the crush series of amps and they’re leading the market place in a different direction. Most definitely hiwatt and blackstar followed them into this market and i suspect more will follow.

And still today one of the best amps I own..👍

Sad it hasnt got 48v phantom power

I went on a road trip to buy my brother a Roland cube 30 X? + some other things for me, a few years ago. Stupid me didn't take a lead or a guitar. The guys daughter got me her acoustic. The cube sounded scratchy so she went to get her amp. A Pathfinder 15R. Plugged in & whoa, what a Beast. The father asked if she used it & she hadn't. They offered it to me, for $50 Aussie money. Snapped it up. I already owned my AC 15 C1. It's a Very Close Match! ❤

yeah, but that corky sound...

I’m so doing this! Cheers

that was awesome

Best review I’ve watched so far for this amp. One thing that wasn’t mentioned I think was the weight, this amp only weighs 44lbs as opposed to my tube combos that weight near 70lbs. For guys my age (63) that’s a HUGE plus. Thanks Dominick ☮️

Great idea

I’m new to guitar and actually picked up the crush pro not knowing what I was doing…after a year of learning I’ve come to realize my first instincts aren’t so shabby!

How do you change the bulb? Not seeing how to take apart.

Never understood,”it’s a great amp!!!, but I’m going to change the speaker and mod it”. If it’s a great amp, leave it alone.

I love mine and will keep it I even play electric guitar on it.❤❤❤❤❤

This is an awesome review! Thank you so much. I bought mine used (no manual) and I learned a ton from this. Thanks!

Thank you.🎸

hey bro! have you tried using a pedalboard in your amps might bring some difference to your drives and distortion. You would definatley see a change in tone, makes for a good practice times when you want to jam some good music! :)

Just picked one up for 50 bucks. Reverb doesn't work. But it will take a Reverb pedal I figured ❤️

MIM sounds way better

Could be the speaker. I'd also like to add that I found in my USA Pro Jr. that the tubes make a huge difference. I changed my Power & Pre amp tubes (I had a bunch on hand to choose from) and every tube changed the character.

so someone local is selling a mongoose title that needs some parts but is mostly there should i get it

Have one in blue. Fun guitar light and with a nice neck. Lower frets need a bit treat and they say its a nice modding platform.

How much In south africa?

Why cover the pickups???

I actually owned this and the Rocker 15 at the same time. I kept the Crush. The tone was almost identical after dialing them in, and while the Rocker is great it's a lot harder to dial the tone and volume live fiddling with the attenuator on the back. With the crush it's a breeze, AND it comes with an awesome built-in reverb. I wish the 60 came with a 10-inch speaker option (I'm in the minority, I prefer 10-inch speakers) but other than that it's my gigging amp. Love the thing. It's so versatile you really don't need a pedalboard, almost everything you can need is in there.

That amp sounds great how could anyone deny it

Awesome hack.

Picked up one of these on the cheap a few months back. I am not disappointed. It can do anything

This or the super crush 100 1x12

After 10 minutes you had me! At first I let the video run on the side, but then the sound and your cool rhythm grabbed me! Very nice video!

Good video on getting best out of this amp, playing tasteful blues, not mindless shredding,really showing great tones that can be achieved

Awesome video ‼️🔥🎸

I plan on borrowing your ideas. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

I have an old 1970s mustang, and it has forearm cut and belly cut. it is not a weird feature in mustang bullet tho. except if you only compared this to the modern mustang, then it is correct.. =)

This is the one I originally wanted, for the express reason that it _didn't_ have Reverb, and was a one-channel amplifier. I got tired of all the practice amps with a hyped "sAtUrAtIoN" channel that sounded like a lunch box full of bees.

I can’t seem to find this color.

Nicely riffed. Thanks for sparing us the shrill. The USA model sounded solid and thick. The SE model not so much - kinda skinny. Curious how the now Made In Mexico tweed IV stacks up with the older USA and the newer MIM IV SE models just demonstrated. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the review. If this finish comes back I will order it.

Just bought one in black on reverb .They have a Sonic Mustang HH now but it's a slab body and once you've seen a Mustang with belly carve and comfort cut there's no going back so a 2017 Bullet for me .Looks so much better with the pick up covers but dont trust myself to cut out the pick guard .I wonder if anyone makes a custom pick guard for covers like that ?

So what’s the story on the fitment of the fender pickguard??

For playing live, I crank the volume to around 3/4 and leave the gain at around 1-2. That gives me my loud clean. I run through my pedal board and use a couple of different overdrive pedals for my distortion stuff.

“I didn’t wanna do anything on the bridge.. too shrill…” Dooo it. Dooo it. Dooo it… aweeee

Very cool comparison. Ty for doing this. I'm a producer and I'm looking for a small, tube, low watt amp for the studio and these are def on my list.

Lol, 'trust' rod,

Nice job. Well done.

I have the yellow Squier Bullet Mustang Competition, thoroughly copper-shield it, its adjusted to perfect intonation, and swapped pick ups to Warman P-90 Humbuckers. The frets has been tested, polished and oiled, and some matching black tuners. Im over the moon happy for it! So very easy to play, super lightweight and sounds like Nirvana! (If people only knew how good these guitars really are with just some mods and a little TLC)

I love mine!

Bought mine on Amazon and worst fret sprout in history. Mine was standard.

Anyone with an NES cartridge in the foreground is aces in my book.

I bought a mahogany tele kit from this company ! It's unbelievable how good the body and neck are . The frets needed a little attention but if you're into doing your own work you can build a really great playing guitar for a fraction of paying for a guitar with a Fender logo on it .
