Wow, well, I got to the end of the video, with only a few skips through. I KNOW the Katana 50 is amazing because I bought one a month ago. But the real revelations for me here were the Acoustic 150 and the Micro Cube, both with wrecked speakers but OMG, the full sound of the Acoustic and the range of sounds/effects in the Micro Cube were astounding. (I thought the Micro Cube REALLY dripped!) Also, your Celestion cab made anything played through it sound great. I once had a Roland Bolt 30 combo. It was a valve/solid-state hybrid pseudo Mesa kinda deal but always sounded "cardboardy", UNTIL I put a Celestion Vintage 30 speaker in it. Then it came to life... and how. It just goes to show how the right speaker can unleash the beast. Thanks for all the time and effort you (And Sweetwater) put into this. Unfortunately, I'm a Brit 😱 so I won't be buying from Sweetwater. Coda Music or Andertons may be getting some of my business though. Ok, that's enough niceness from me. Now for the rude and nasty comment you so crave... LAZY!! You only demoed your amp collection through three guitars. C'mon... What we want to see is EACH of your amps demoed with EACH of your guitars, in turn, in every genre, with ALL the gain stages and ALL the pup selections. Otherwise, how can we possibly have an informed opinion? Then, once you've achieved that, in 2030 or so, ALL your pedals thrown into the mix. That should keep you busy until you hit retirement. Make it so Ryan, just make it so. Over to you chap. 😃👍 PS. The Harmony was plain awful. I think you should take the guts out of it, install a zipper and give it to your wife as a trendy, retro purse. Just sayin' 😁

^this. I purchased Fender Mutang GTX50 (thought about Boss Katana but I often play at night and Katana falls apart when plugged with headphones, sounds horrific), brand new costs 349 pounds, but I've been playing for a year; my first guitar was your typical "starter pack" as the amount of choices amps and pedals overwhelmed me at first having no idea what I'm looking at. The amp was terrible and had no effects so I quickly invested into my first "real" amp (Blackstar ID Core V3) which goes for 100 brand new; no newbie would spend 300 or 400 pounds on an amp when you're not even sure if you'll be playing the guitsr next month.

There are a lot of good things to say about the old acoustic amps. I played bass through a B4 for years. It sounded fantastic until the preamp died in the most beautiful sounding distortion anyone ever. It was a sweeter distortion than a tube ever produced. The down side is that repair shops wouldn’t take it because the resale on old acoustics was so bad that if I stiffed them they couldn’t resell it to cover the repair cost. Four different shops wouldn’t guess what the repair cost would be in order that I put down a deposit. I used it as a power amp for a different preamp for another couple years until that died too.

This may trigger some people, but I never cared for Fender amps. I've had three over the years and never liked the tone and never bonded with them. My most favorite amp is the '90s-early '00s reissue Ampeg Reverberocket. I sold one in late 2019 (needed the cash) and loved that amp so much that I bought another one 2 months ago. They have a lush, warm tone with fantastic reverb built in. They run typically $400-$600 for the R12R (single 12" speaker). Strangely, used ones have been in that price range consistently for years. If you ever decide to downsize the "meh" amps, you should get this amp to challenge the Princetons. I do have a Supro Blues King 12, but the Ampeg has nicer cleans, whereas the Supro breaks up a bit earlier than I like. I have seen that a tube swap can fix that threshold and if you swap the speaker, it'll make the amp less dark.
@friedrudibega63843 жыл бұрын
I had a reverborocket from earlier (probably 70s) and it was the best little amp. Really liked to be dimed. I'd mess with the vibrato depth and speed while playing live and just got some great stuff out of it. Traded it in on some marshall combo which was good but didn't have what the Ampeg brought to the table. It was a dumb move. I think you can just swap out the first pre amp tube on the Supro and it'll clean up better. Cheers

I'll never understand why some people prefer the Princeton Reverb to Deluxe Reverb, which has a larger cabinet, larger speaker, larger sound, and most importantly - BETTER sound imho, even at low volumes. Even if you put a 12" speaker in a PR, it still a smaller cab, and the reverb in the Deluxe Reverb is even better, as good as PR reverb is. PR may have an edge on tremolo? But overall, no comparison. I never used my two easy 1970's PR amps, so they are gone. If I want a blackface sound, it's always the DR. If you need a bigger sound, just plug it into an external cab - a 4X12 may rock your world? Of course you can do that with a PR too, but seriously - who does that? My speaker-out is going to be a mid-control soon, the nice thing about "clones" is you don't have to worry about hot-rodding them, although this change is reversible. I like the reverb on channel 1 too, being a low impedance guy, often using the 2nd lower impedance input on channel 2, since I must have that reverb. That said, the non-reverb Deluxe, Princeton, Pro, and Super (yes Super had a blackface non-reverb?) are all wonderful amps, you just have to add a Fender tube reverb and you're good to go. The guy who does the demos at GFX amps (GuitarfetishTV I think?) often uses his "Super" blackface, black faceplate, four speakers, looks like a real Fender...but IS it? Fender doesn't claim to have built any, but you never know...or do you?

I have yet to hear one that sounds anything like the old Valco made amps they were modeled after. I have a Micro cube and really only keep it around for remote guitar testing when no 120V outlets are available. I just can't get my head around DSP amps. I'm sure I'll be called a Cork sniffer, and you know what? I'm ok with that. Tone is subjective, and that's my basis. 'Your' basis will be different.

I think it would be really cool if you reviewed some of the cheapest springverb amps you can find. Like an afforda-amp video? I recently got a frontman 25R and its no Princeton but the vibe is 100% there. I know that while I was looking, it was really hard to find demos of some of those ancient secondhand amps, so something like that would be really nice to see.

What’s your preferred ear plug? I’d like to find something that protects the ears but doesn’t muffle the musicality like those sponge ear plugs

My one and only amp is one of Orange's little solid state ones, the Crush 12. It's also surprisingly loud for its size. It's single channel like the Micro Terror but it can go cleaner since the overdrive is separated from gain. Sounds good too. Only thing it really lacks is an effects loop.

So much fun! I love small combo amps. I'm up over 10 myself and still collecting. The big battery powered amp is amazing, so many features and so unsuspecting. Keep at it man. 👏👏👏👏👏

The fender Princeton is essentially a country music band amplifier. The distortion and the breakup sounds very muddy. Might sound a little better with Gibson's style guitar. But those fender amps are definitely not worth what they're saying and selling them at.

Sooner or later, just by sheer chance and riffing, you're going to stumble upon Jump In The Fire by Metallica without even realizing it! Cool vid. I dig a few of these amps.
