Sounds great, but should position the amp so you can see it while the players are playing...

[@flatsix666]

Superb amp, really well thought out features. Plus it's sounds lovely! For me the Les Paul into the high gain without pedals is just killer ! Great demo guys, many thanks.

[@jeffdell9472]

The F50 is a great and versatile amp, not too big, not too small. Lovely reverb. Clean can be glassy or jazzy. Drive or Hi gain sounds best with humbuckers or a Tele bridge; if you want to play a Strat, you might want to use a drive pedal to push it some more.

[@ABOGJoel]

Just found that out re: the Strat. Fits my Les Paul and Tele better in the two drive modes. Any pedal recommendations for the Strat in those channels?

[@TheAamott12]

You guys do the best reviews! Thank you and please keep them coming!

[@dragui9932]

Excellent demo guys! Thank you for doing it. Will you demo the little brother 25W with 6V6 ? Thanks

[@user-bk8db7ud6k]

Love how actually in-tune the guitars are in this vid. Refreshing.

[@TheBhannah]

it sounds like all the best tones from the 70's ..really good demo !

[@jimkiousis]

Boogie plus the Xotic perfect combo! The notes pop out loudly!

[@jmacc9876]

Wow. Only listened to the clean stuff at the beginning of the video so far, but wow.

[@robertrosejr1]

Mesa California tweed or Fillmore 50 combo. One choice interested in comments

[@blakemansfield2356]

Cali Tweed sounds best set up clean or VERY LIGHT breakup. It is excellent for that but if you want to gain it up, pedals are your best bet. Gets a little weird and flubby with too much gain. If you like gain from the amp- I'd prob look at fillmore or TC50

[@fir3wat3r60]

Me too. Im having troubles. If filmore or the tweed. Or the vibrolux fender haha

[@louierubio]

What did you end up getting?

[@sharonraizor2839]

@@fir3wat3r60 Early 70's Vibrolux amps are a steal. I got a 72 for $900 and it sounds fantastic.

[@frantisca]

Nice playing, nice guitars, nice dude, but nothing does: I don't catch to Mesa Boogie... :(

[@Roomfulofgear]

Thanks for sharing! I play strats and humbucker-equipped guitars, and recently acquired a Gibson Les Paul. I have this amp coming in late November. Super stoked this amp is sounding amazing with all those guitars, can’t wait for mine to get in my life!

[@danthel]

Can I ask do u have stagered machine heads cos u have taken the tee trees out.for the whammy thk

[@rvanstar]

6L6 ...

[@babagadoush1]

Finally got one. Very helpful for me one where to begin setting up some tones

[@liorauf]

Great video guys!!!

[@druwk]

Boogies are incredibly solid amps. They always get great sounds. Nice to see them putting out a more traditionally voiced amp. Obviously, they are kings of high gain, but the basic clean tones are rich and usable. Glad more manufacturers are including the “in-between” setting. With the pedals you could probably get away with one channel? Be great if they made a cheaper one channel version.

[@jeffswarts2027]

druwk Imagine if they took one channel of the fillmore25 and stuffed it in a 1x10 combo and could keep it right at $1k

[@svert11]

Fantastic tones and fantastic playing! Really enjoyed this video. Cheers.

Fantastic review with great guitars, beautiful playing and of course, a great sounding amp which is what I've been looking for in recent times. My credit card is tingling. Excellent presenters too.

[@danheath9365]

Love that accent dude. Really cool review.

[@tman6495]

Best Fillmore 50 vid....great job!!! 🎸

[@banjo7598]

Christ - that king tone pedal sounds incredible.

[@bestregardsband6912]

How does it take pedals?

[@darwinsaye]

I’m pretty obsessive about having enough treble and clarity, but that sounds pretty harsh and sizzley even for my taste. Especially with the Strat, I would have tried the treble and presence down to around noon and the bass up a bit, maybe.

[@jonathanbois9092]

Nice guitar playing guys!

[@austinsandefer649]

Kinda been nice if the amp had it's on camera and seen you flipping some switches. Man,,,....

Too much presents

Too many presents 😂

[@chrisvincent49]

Great playing and my goodness a great sounding r9!

[@robstout1453]

I kind of like this kind of amp ( kind of ) 😂

[@northfortyrecords]

Great video. This is the first Fillmore vid where I've actually thought it sounds pretty good. Don't know what it is, but in all the other vids, the Fillmore is just missing something to my ears. It could be that I'm expecting it to sound like a Fender, given all the marketing and aesthetics of this amp, but it really doesn't sound very Fendery...or even Boogie-like (Mark series). Sounds good in this video though. I love the topology of the amp, it's just missing a special spark for me.

[@guitarpenter3357]

Is this amp too loud?

[@williamlittlefield4749]

Too loud? For what ... playing at home?

[@guitarpenter3357]

I mean do you have to crank it to get a good tone, Ive owned several Mesa amps and they are generally loud!

[@williamlittlefield4749]

@@guitarpenter3357 It sounds best @ at least 50% on the Master. So yes, it's definitely best for live use - get an attenuator for home use if need be.

[@PracticalGuitarist]

I'm making the assumption this is an on-axis SM57. Too much treble, makes the amp sound super thin. Having played through one a few times, I can say that it doesn't sound like this in person.

[@Art-zs6sl]

No doubt this sounds amazing in person, but yes especially with the pedals it may as well of been a plug-in.

[@SuperHotrod4]

Amazing how 90% of guitar players do not know how to dial in an amp or mic it properly.

[@Auen73]

I agree.....there is a hard tick, knock,......or quack sound I’m hearing. Maybe in a live band setting it would be less noticeable.

[@gdhi11]

Mids are probably better to have than treble. Treble gets lost in the cymbal wash.

[@gdhi11]

They tend to dial a lot of the amps on this channel really bright--they don't sound bad or anything, but it's generally not natural to the way it would sound in person.

[@dezionlion]

Les Paul sounds great! Like it should.

[@kevinmusso2397]

Great demo. If could be a little less talky. I’m not wanting to be rude. I appreciate your review. What a great amp.

That LP blew that Tele away.

[@JasonMcFly]

Lol no, it most certainly did not

[@Sekirobborne]

@@JasonMcFlyoh ok

[@CTBlaze]

Great walk through, showing the different voices/gain stages/responsiveness. Although the playing is excellent, the actual stretches of playing are a bit too long (right, Jack?😅✌️) - the video could be more compact otherwise. In any way, I have a crush on the Fillmore 50, but I detest Meinl for the European distribution monopoly, with ridiculous price labels in Europe.

[@MisterTee]

Sounds reasonably good

[@spada60]

reasonably? It sounds great

Strat wannabe! Couldn’t you find a real strat for your video?

[@williamlittlefield4749]

Probably wanted a good guitar rather than an overpriced piece of junk

[@Slothclawcolseslaw]

William Littlefield boooooom! Nice 👍

[@williamlittlefield4749]

@@Slothclawcolseslaw I have a "Posercaster" -- even got a custom headstock sticker that says as much! It's an awesome Squire Strat (got it for free as an afterthought in a trade deal) with the best neck/body I've ever played. Replaced the stock pups with a Lil '59 in the bridge and Carvin 11-pole SCs in the middle/neck, pulled the extra tone (replaced with a kill switch) and moved the volume/tone back a slot (the volume knob always gets in the way of my right hand), added locking tuners, strap locks, and roller saddles. Total upgrade cost was under $300 and I would put it up against any American made Strat built in the past 20 years as far as tone/playability (and what else matters?) are concerned. .
