Couldn't have picked a better person to demo this. I've literally bought 4 amps after watching his reviews. Great job Zach!

[@soundstorm9508]

Zach is doing the best amp reviews on KZbin in my opinion. The Lerxst sounds amazing.

[@brucek2946]

Somebody FINALLY did an A+ Demo of the Lerxst !!

[@premierguitar]

That's because @ZachWish only does A+ work!

[@georgejetson1923]

Probably because no one has bought one yet. Sounds pretty darn good , I would need to hear it in the room though to make judgment.

[@bryanbailey6963]

Just received mine yesterday - WOW - right out of the box this is the best sounding amp I have played! Amazing clarity and biting crunch.

[@bryanbailey6963]

Love this amp. It's good to finally see a thorough demo.

[@ShibDais]

Been wondering what Zach was up to. Good job, his channel is one of my favorites 🙏

[@SSN70]

Sounds fantastic ! Nice job 🤘🏽

[@swaffy101]

Zach, I have been watching your videos for a few years and I gotta say I’m very happy for your success! Great play and picks some of the coolest music. Congrats on the big time with premiere guitar!

[@shanealan2995]

Amp sounds phenomenal

[@daviddelossantos6075]

Been waiting for a demo of this thing

[@mmiller6873]

Love it. On my wish list to pick up. Rush is one of my all time fav bands. Saw many tours and was at the very last concert at the Forum.

[@StealthParrot]

Sounds awesome! Thanks.

[@BKDocHoliday]

Awesome playing! Amp sounds amazing as well. I'm really considering getting one. You've inspired me to go play. Got a Friedman JJ Jr.

[@AkiraSpectrum]

looks sick! major want.

[@thomasmalz4111]

So happy to see @zachwish getting the respect he deserves!

[@johnwilliams3075]

That is a great sounding little amp!

[@PhuketMyMac]

With Zach, you always get your ears pleased and learn about new songs that you wonder why you've never heard before.

[@peterschaefer1665]

Awesome review!

[@guitarz]

Stellar review

[@richweber5256]

sounds just like my Marshall Silver Jubilee, without the bottom end that I get with my 2-12 or 4-12 cab. I get the perfect Rush tone with a TC ‘Corona’ Chorus pedal, and to add a touch of fatness an Xotic ‘EP’ boost. It’s the Alex tone, exactly through my Les Paul Axcess 🤓✌🏼

[@DavyMackNYC]

Love the green jazzmaster. Which model is that?

[@heythere6983]

Sounds nice, I’m lookin at Fillmore 50 aswell. I really like the mesa harmonics but this also has 6l6 top end that sounds good here

[@Twobarpsi]

Great riffing 🤘!!

[@haloeffect44]

Absolute W

[@stephenhaynes603]

the amp does sound the dogs bollo674657 but remember its in a desk , the sound heard is perhaps a bit diffrent in its raw form - direct from its 1x12 cone. love that tone though ! i want one.

[@brownsfan7753]

Love this!!!!!!!!

[@MrBoolee2112]

How good does that Tele sound through the Chi ! 😮

[@mrbuttons1243]

Yeah! More Zach reviews!

[@peterbishop9771]

If you run out of room, I can store that amp for you.😊

[@Darth.Shredder]

Sounds a lot like Alex's H&K's to me, at least through my laptop.

[@lyricbread]

6:41 “Uh huhuhuhuh… uh huhuhuhuhuhh…”

[@1ragincajun519]

wow, what is that clean riff?

[@elblouses128]

That Tele tone is ridiculous

[@thomasmalz4111]

@zachwish, what Jazzmaster is that? I've tried to look on my own lol

[@jamesmarcin4787]

Sounds great. Was that the Beavis and Butthead theme song at 6.41?

[@MaxFeinsteinMusic]

sure sounded like it!

[@jconner3891]

Yes it was

[@coryhaggerty5083]

im just non stop looking at that Jazzmaster. What model is that?

[@mdsveda]

Can it do home levels of 80-90db?

[@user-tb3zt7wk2l]

Price??

[@cbarrett34]

Price?

[@genghiskhando5507]

$1995

[@crosswalklarry]

I always find it interesting when companies decide on marketing names that are so odd. Also noticed the name badge is already peeling up.

[@lesbguitar2393]

I saw that also

[@JerkyTreat]

It looks like that could be the plastic film protector peeling up and not the actual badge. Probably left on as this was sent as a demo

[@RODZILLA-58]

Could be chineeeeeeeeeeee😅

[@royeaton3148]

*promo sm* 😆

[@rhoydotp]

nice! but I thought it was going to be Lifeson playing 😂

[@timnotbrianmay]

They're STUPID EXPENSIVE!!!!!!!!!!... And his sound is NOT The ultimate guitar sound EVER!!!!!!!!!! Don't get me wrong, it works perfectly for rush, but if that's not ALL that you're playing... WHY??????????

[@jaykafcas4342]

That’s a given. It’s the lethal amount of post editing this guy does that’s not what you sign up for when you spend $4000, unless it’s his $4000 of course. We have no idea what this sounds like, that’s why he only played dial tone Rush stuff.

[@justincodyfox]

​@@jaykafcas4342the Head version is only $1695 and the combo is $1995....

[@timnotbrianmay]

@@jaykafcas4342 ... Just give me a Vox AC 30!!!... Oh... wait... I have two already... 😸😺 Beats the crap out of my old hundred watt Marshall stack from the '70s, and anything else I've had before, or play through!!! A long while ago, I had it in the shop for a noise problem for a month, and ended up borrowing a hundred watt twin for 2 weeks and a hundred watt Marshall tube combo for 2 weeks... My old drummer Bob, may he rest in peace, had previously asked me why I bought a Vox... After hearing me playing through these other two amps, between songs in rehearsal one day, he looked up at me and said"... Man.. I hope your amp's done soon!!!" 😸

[@scottwilson940]

Is it overpriced? Probably. But I don’t think the only sound you can get out of a Marshall clone is Rush.

[@timnotbrianmay]

@@scottwilson940 You're absolutely right! It's just that a Marshall clone isn't really special, and a Marshall sound isn't really the best out there! Richie Blackmore actual used Vox AC 30s inside of hollowed out Marshalls when he played back in the day! Wish I had known that before I got my 100 watt Marshall stack🙀😿😾😸!!! I wanted to sound like Alvin Lee and Ritchie Blackmore! That was before I "met " Brian May!!! 😸!!!! Never knew why his guitar sounded so fat, lush and creamy... Of course, it's not just the amp, but... MAN, DOES IT HELP!!!!!!! I mean that my Marshall was great when I first got it, but as I progressed, the clean sound was... Well... Not impressive!!! And the older is got, the worse The distorted sound got!... At least, to my ears!!! It started to seem to harsh, and slightly brittle, and needed a lot of help to smooth it out!!! New tubes would help for a while, but truly, it was never actually ideal!!!!!!! Virtually everything sounds better through an AC30!!!!!!!!!!... EVEN RUSH!!! 😸!!!!

[@shaunkellison1761]

I don’t know man… I’m seeing a lot of amplifier emulators lately that are coming out to sound as good if not better than a lot of these signature tube amps that are coming out. I think the age of physical tube driven guitar equipment is pretty much over at this point.

[@snicker576]

Nah

[@Darth.Shredder]

They said the same thing about CD's replacing vinyl, now everyone wants vinyl again. Tube equipment may loose mass appeal for a while but, like everything else it will surely return with a vengeance. History proves this time and again.

[@shaunkellison1761]

@@Darth.Shredder all tubes that I have seen on the market are made in Russia. That’s not exactly good news for American musicians with tube amps if World War III kicks off.

[@Darth.Shredder]

@@shaunkellison1761 WWIII? lol Are you going to fill your basement with canned goods and powdered milk too? Tubes are not exclusively made in Russia. Sure, they make a lot of them but China makes just as many. Popular brands like JJ are made in Slovakia and Western Electric makes tubes here in the USA.

[@snicker576]

@@shaunkellison1761 Tubes are the last thing anyone is gonna worry about in that scenario. WWIII....This comment thread escalated wildly fast haha

Throw a little chorus on that Red Barchetta.
