First Impressions of the BluGuitar Floor Amplifier & BluBox!

[@joesatchton212]

Thomas Blug is quite possibly the "best" guitar-playing mad scientist around...Little wonder he finally decided to go out there on his own...Now I gotta try that new IR box... :)

[@lance134679]

Great job covering pedals at NAMM, Dan and Mick.

[@alphakittyofficial]

Thanks To Dan, Mick, Lee, and the entire Andertons crew at NAMM for all your hard work. The sheer quantity of videos you cranked out so quickly amazed me and, as always, you made it all a lot of fun. Thanks guys and have a safe trip back to the UK.

[@bennettskb555]

Thomas is revolutionising the industry, fantastic, usable products at reasonable prices, and practical size/weight. Great interview Guys

[@hammondsphoto]

Absolutely. 99% of guitar innovations are all hype and serve no real purpose. The AMP1, by contrast, is like a Swiss Army knife for guitar sound - light, well-featured, sounds really, really good in its own right. I play a lot of support slot gigs where it's shared backline and I can gig electric almost as easily as acoustic and can walk or take the bus where before I would have had to drive. So the main selling point of the AMP1 is enabling me to have a beer!

[@cscottodell]

Thank you for stopping by this booth! I'd love to see more about the Bluguitar brand on your channel.

[@benbutterworth7584]

I hope Andertons start selling this guy's stuff. It looks great.

[@vadlasletta]

Thomas Blug,seems like the coolest guy! Insane chops, and still humble.

[@THE8-BITROAD]

Had once the opportunity to stand next to Thomas when he was playing, could watch him playing for hours :)

[@cabbage9398]

Certainly the most realistic simulation I've heared.

[@sowhat5150]

I think this is by far the best product of NAMM. Cant wait to see you fully demo it on your show.

[@robertfalconer5054]

Thomas Blug is a genius, loved his work with Hughes and Kettner, And now his own stuff. What great tools for the travelling Guitarist..

[@franknguitars7671]

wow, have been watching NAMM videos for hours and this was one of the best sounding products. impressive!

[@iAmTheSquidThing]

I've been waiting for someone to bring out exactly this. I predict that with so many variables in micing up a cabinet on stage, you'd probably often get better sound with this technology.

[@disfibulator]

I watch NAMM videos because of discoveries like this. Cool, humble guy, awesome gear!

[@poopypanysou812]

I plugged my Bluguitar Amp 1 into a Raezors Edge 12" cab with a Celestial Gold and I got a tone very similar to a Tweed Bassman. My favorite speaker cab is an Evans box with a 15" Kappalite Eminence. Favorable reactions from the other guys in the band (and pickers in the house.) Super loud, full and beefy like a 2X12 box.... only about 30 lbs.

[@RobbDizzl]

The BluBox looks so great and I know that it has pretty much all the cabs you need but I still wished it had a "user"-slot to load in an own IR.

[@andrewbutcher3391]

This does indeed sound really good. Deserves a serious look....

[@ThiagoRochaA1]

In this NAMM everyone is launching it's own Cab Sim.

[@kevganhiga]

This is the future. Sounds incredible

[@Ju287V3]

Wow that sounds fantastic especially when they crank the master vol. I've been waiting for 4 month's for this to come out for my Amp1.

[@MarcoWriedt]

Truly a fantastic product!

[@joshf8097]

this guy is a genius and it's the perfect way to get overdrive from your power amp versus the preamp

[@Vadim_D]

Wow. This sounds awesome! Really nice stuff. Thanks for the video.

[@marcelblade]

sound's awesome, I use my amp1 with the amt pangea, also a convelution player.

[@kingdarker2962]

That sounds ridiculously good!

[@diddyboy6666]

Thomas and Dan.... possibly the two nicest men in the business!!!

[@JackBGUITAR]

cant stop staring at that guys hair in the background

[@martyadams2528]

Jack Brown that's not a guy it's a duuuuude.

[@hammondsphoto]

You just know he plays some sort of lame fake-metal genre aimed at tweenagers.

[@jeddak]

I agree. He completely upstages the entire BluGuitar demo.

[@officialWWM]

At 1.30 he plays some mead air guitar 😂

[@ziggy72170]

Brown; Dude you Need that Hairstyle !! ( Imagine all the hot chicks you'd get !! )

[@RedRose4711]

I am pretty much sold on that!

[@HermelJaworski]

Wow!!! sounds freaking amazing!

[@DoctorMcFarlandStudios]

Simply amazing

[@MK-oz2lf]

I'd like to see a video that compares the BluGuitar Amp 1 to the Matrix VB 800 to a Quilter Mach 2

[@mordokch]

Damn that sounds bloody good ! Really really good !!

[@officialWWM]

That's it, tomorrow I am buying every piece of gear this bloke has built!

[@officialWWM]

1 year on I own the Amp1, the Nano Cab the controller and the amp sim. This gear is awesome!

[@paulppetersson]

Tweed deluxe setting and the rumble sound = instant joe bonamassa

[@marianobrascich]

AWESOME AMP !!! ALWAYS GREATER VIDEOS GUYS !!!

[@dna598]

sounds really good

[@bbenz9750]

Sounds great!

[@lassestorgaardjacobsen]

Sounds great.

[@otsop]

I'm just waiting for the new Squiers and the new Death By Audio effects!

[@isvaramandala]

Nothing wrong with that. Great DI sound

[@davidchase-lopes8413]

How different to Tech 21's sans amp technology that has been around since 1989?

[@eldaddio]

Sounds awesome..

[@davidstotsenburgh4510]

not being very technical I have a question, can this be hooked up at the end of your pedal train and then into your amp or do you need a pre amp?

[@Furriee]

This is the amplifier with effect loop. You connect it to the cab, like traditional head. Thats all. I've bought it as a second amp before christmas, and I am loving it.

[@davidstotsenburgh4510]

thanks for the reply

[@chatter7653]

I'd like to see a 'shootout' between this and one of Two Notes boxes (studio, live or CAB)

[@andremellao4882]

Fantastic

[@kojak345]

Wow real great sounds I hate my kemper after listening this video..

[@truthfactreality6814]

Need to get another amp one

[@flingar]

That is very impressive!

[@Soilwar]

Once sold my BluGuitar Amp and have missed it since. I'm going to buy it again soon for sure! PS: The background was very distracting in the beginning. Kinda looked like the preparation for releasing the Kraken. I'm glad he didn't put his tentacles up her skirt huehue

[@foshizol]

What kind of headphones is he using? I can hear everything around me when I have my 'cans' on.

[@supergrizzidentity]

Does it include Blu e-cigs?

[@lance134679]

Nice cabinet emulator. I wonder if he should have named it the BluBox, since he might create other boxes in the future... :-)

[@bla_blub]

Lawrence Gillespie Hughes & Kettner has the Red Box and he worked for H&K, so maybe it's inspired by that and used the "Blu" which is part of his name. I'm just guessing though.

[@puffdragon26]

...........the Blubox 2.......problem solved

[@allfortonechannel8979]

He's gotta be German...guessing. Automatically sounds more interesting and convincing. Anyways, that box sounds SO GOOD!!! Mad scientist! Will you guys be my friends too? lol.

[@bla_blub]

All for Tone Channel He is German, indeed :D Check him out, he seems like a nice person and is a good guitarist.

[@cawfeedawg]

I dont get it.. is it two boxes or one?

[@markinthemix6055]

Why in the world do you guys not demo or use this on the show? This is very cool. Thomas is a genius. You guys are giddy over the product. Why not give it some time on the show?

[@andertons]

+Mark we did!

[@Ullish1989]

wait is this a loadbox too? because if so this is the best sounding most affordable cab emulator I've come across

[@abcdzyxw]

Would love to know that as well

[@thehont8648]

I don't think so. At 9:54 Thomas explains that for a "Marshall, a Fender, a Vox you need a load". It's only with the Amp 1 that you don't need a load.

[@Ullish1989]

The Hont but he says that you can connect it up to the thru?

[@filip5150]

Ullish1989 with the speaker in and thru you can connect it between amp and your cabinet. But if you want to go silent you need to have a loadbox and the signal will go from 'speaker thru' to a loadbox instead of cabinet. One advantage is that you only need a loadbox for the load. You don't need it for the line level signal to go to the IR cab simulator. This way I think you can buy a cheap loadbox because you don't need it to sound great

[@Ullish1989]

Filip Sykut ahh yep makes sense. just need to get this and a good loadbox then! any recommendations? radial?

[@jeffthompson1696]

I want one!

[@freakaz01d]

At first i thought it was recorded through a mic and a cab! Damn

[@iAmTheSquidThing]

Convolution using impulse responses is one of the instances where digital signal processing really shines and is virtually indistinguishable from reality. It takes a fairly hefty amount of processing power though.

[@officialWWM]

Interesting how he says it sounds like an amp in his earphones and how awesome it is etc, then they do a video on running direct to a PA and monitoring with earphones and carry on about how much they hate it...with the very same amp ! Make your minds up guys!

[@freocar9629]

Top bloke.

[@MrJoeyBoombotz]

Wow!!

[@smy0003]

Do yourself a favour and listen to 'My house is Green' by Mr. Blug. THE Strat rock sound.

[@joshf8097]

that's got to be expensive that's not ridiculously really good that is so convincing it's a real amp I would use that and only that for the rest of my life and be completely happy

[@professorfoxtrot]

RUSH!

[@bertagriese8282]

first play it and then judge - I didn't like it. The Amp1 I in a speaker box mean

[@rolandjene5327]

zeigs den Amis besondere Grüsse an Kai Sonnhalter

[@wheelsdeal]

First post bitches..

[@PeterDad60]

First post you say? Wow how cool is that for a person who has no mind or opinion to contribute about this video.

[@johnschroeder8766]

more TOYS for the kids. wake me up when they get back to showing REAL amps.

[@RiffsByJake]

John Schroeder you chose to watch this video.

[@johnschroeder8766]

RiffsByJake the title did not inform me that i was clicking on fake amps. i was lead to believe this was a GUITAR video.

[@greatvanzini]

His Amp One is tube. A nano tube but a tube none the less.

[@Ullish1989]

wait is this a loadbox too? because if so this is the best sounding most affordable cab emulator I've come across
