For my old tinnitus filled ears in order: 1. Divided by 13 2.Two Rock 3. Germino I believe for the vast majority of us guitar players, we do not have the capacity to crank amps like this (either at home or at the average sized club) so having said that there are some really awesome amps available with a master volume which allows us to have the best of both worlds! This was still very cool to hear Jeff, thanks for doing this one!

They all have qualities I love. Running two at once was the best IMO. But that’ll never happen on a gig! Like I said, it doesn’t have the be this loud for it to sound good. This is insane…

Great licks played, fitting these amps like a glove. All amps have their place in different settings. For my likings I preferred the Germino most because of the vintage voicing. The Two Rock sounded a bit more “modern” to me, but played together with the Germino is the rock sound in heaven😊 Thanks for your effort to capture these tones and sharing.

Glorious tones, Jeff. Ive found that if i can attenuate my amps to be hitting around 90db, im still able to get that circuit of interaction between amp and guitar you mentioned. This is still loud for sure, but at least a little more comfortable than 115db. Still, there's nothing like being in the presence of amps like these at the volumes you were playing at here.

I have gone to smaller amps again. You are totally right about the connection between the guitar and amp as a circuit. I have used digital too and it is great but I never could replicate that circuit. I don’t need much volume but I need some for that connection between me, the guitar and the amp.

Was there a bright cap on the Germino? I ask because I have the headroom 100 and originally it didn’t come with a bright cap and I installed one. It super helps bring out the Marshall sound and feel. Also a closed back cab is ideal. Cool vid. Great work!

Great video. My order would be Germino, Divided by 13, Two Rock. I agree 100% about the ‘circuit’ made playing through a loud valve guitar amp on stage. Playing through a cranked ‘4 hole’ Marshall is very inspiring and for people of our age, I agree, that’s what our heros used and what we grew up listening to. That’s the tone. 🤘🤘🤘Simples. Unfortunately the volume is an issue. ☹️🤔

This beautiful thing you speak of, about the connection between you, the guitar and the amp reaching that level where it sings? That's the EXACT point at which the trolls, the weenies and the Karens will come and start screaming at you to turn it down. They can scream louder than most amps. It doesn't help using smaller amps either. The aforementioned curmudgeons have a built in "sweet spot radar" which springs them into action when the amp begins to sing and it starts to be fun. I sold my Marshall ages ago because of this and my number one go to amp is my Tweed Princeton because its sweet spot is a far lower Db level than anything else I have. It's still too loud because it sounds good. That seems to be the general rule. Sometimes I plug into the MacBook and use the simulators in Logic, and they still beat on the walls and complain about the leakage from my headphones. ..........and of course, I'm the problem. Always. I think I'm gonna take up fishing. We'll see what kind of complaints that generates.

@@JeffMcErlain Is there any such thing as an attenuator for ear buds? I was listening to Mozart on my phone and Karen started screaming at me to turn it down. I think modern people need to live in anechoic chambers. But then they'd complain about the sound of their own hearts beating. Ever been inside one of those? You can hear your own hair growing. It's probably not that quiet on the moon.

Were the max volume tests what were played out of the room and the rest of the demos were in the room in the amps sweet spots? Thanks!
