Nux Might Air Revisit - Do I Still Love It?

[@kalka79]

I grew up on music of Led Zeppelin, The Doors, Pink Floyd, King Crimson. I am great fan of Hendrix, Knopfler, Gilmour, May , I used to even play a guitar in rock band when I was younger. But now ... now I want You to know that I am fascinated by your play ! Your play cannot be just listened to, I just feel your play , it feeds my soul . Thank You Dave, you are really amazing !

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@johntchb]

@Jay Tee at the crossroads?

[@doctorskull8197]

Ugh! Boring

[@kevind3094]

BUCKETHEAD!!! Great playing as usual Dave! It would be awesome to see more Buckethead related content from you. I have always appreciated your commentary and introspection on your fave artists.

[@Pauler23]

I could listen to you play for hours Dave, your beautifully fluid and soulful expression is always so tasteful and quite mesmerising to hear and watch. Just wanted to pay respect and say thank you.

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@nigelmbuckler]

The opening jam was absolutely beautiful .

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@bobchorus3160]

What a complete and amazing guitarist you are Dave! soulful, blues/rock and shredding player!!... So inspiring. What can we ask more?! Total respect Mister Dave Thank You🙏🤘

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@luciano0593]

Finally covers! Hope they don't take them down. It's video like this one that show what a phenomenal guitar player you are. And you keep getting better, if I'm honest. Thanks Dave.

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@atb1325]

That little amp is sweet, however Dave's playing stole the show!! 🎸💣 Sorry the copyright goons got you. Glad you left the video up for us to see and hear those great covers! 🍻🤘

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

That opener was a really great flow of consciousness. Thankyou Dave.

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@christopherroberts3277]

Dave & Buckethead!!!!!! YESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!....... Two giants meet!

[@errrrrm...]

You gushing over this thing again 😆 has pretty much twisted my arm that I need one! As for the covers, bravo Mr Dave!! 👏

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@watchingthecrazyworld7761]

Yeah, me too. I just ordered one.

[@davidsillars3181]

Just amazed by all the sounds you get with that! And as always your playing. I'm kinda wary of things that need apps, electrickery I call it, in my day Dave you could buy a nine volt battery, cod and chips and a wah wah pedal for under a tenner. So what if you had to walk fifteen miles home, we had more stamina in them days etc 🎸🎸🎸🙏❤️

[@mojo6778]

Loved the Gary Moore Loner cover at the end, awesome as well as a excellent intro. You did a great job show casing what that little beast can do.

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@lattelucks4924]

I got one a few weeks ago, must admit I was immediately impressed by how versatile it was but mostly how lovely it actually sounds, the clean channel with my tele sounds gorgeous, for $100 definitely a wise purchase

[@simongummer4515]

Absolute monster of a player no matter what gear he uses.

[@joukohelatie]

Fantastic playing, I bought Nux Mighty Air, after hearing Your playing! Thanks!

[@vitorsouza4243]

All that ambience is coming from that little beast? Quite impressive! Love it

[@andregoring7718]

It is so much fun watching you having so much fun on that backing track. Great! Both, you and mighty cigarbox.

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@tomakafrankconlon3207]

I dont usually post comments but the loner solo was brilliant. You should include that in your next gig. It was spot on.

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@doctoribanez]

I hope they send you a spark mini so you can compare for us

[@paulwoerlen6328]

Thank you very much for this amazing experience to see and hear you play. After the film was over i restarted it again. Wow

[@bluessumlin...7067]

Nux bringing out cool stuff tempted to buy this mighty amp!🎸

[@romandevengenzo4267]

Great review, I love mine too, take it everywhere, and your playing is killer! 😎

[@ronbrand2603]

I absolutely love mine. I picked one up after the first video. Thanks for the clean tone settings too. 🤘🏼

[@eastlancsguitars]

Again, great advice and review! I bought one of these through Amazon a couple of weeks ago on the strength of your review. The applications and possibilities this amp has are endless. I reckon any tone could be coaxed out of this.

[@insanebrain213]

I bought one after your first video. Would be good if you could save your settings to the unit and then not have to access Bluetooth. Mostly i just plug straight in without it, and with a lead. I live in a van and so it's very handy and the battery lasts a long time.

[@stoyan3597]

Dave, you wonderful genius! Why didn't I think of maxing my reverb and chorus on the acoustic setting!? Free entertainment for days haha. Honestly, though, I would've loved if there's an easy way of sharing presets with others. Gary Moore tone tutorial with Andertons coming up (hint hint wink wink)? Sorry for the copyright claims, but I'm glad you kept the video. Keep rocking!

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@hagbardceline1674]

Bought this because of you. I cannot believe how small this channel is compared to the massive nonsense I've been fed by this platform. You are wonderful, dude.

[@bbqchickenrobot3]

Great cover of Soothsayer and great demo of the amp. I 'm traveling and miss my tube combo amp at home (too big to lug from hotel to hotel) so I just bought this lil guy - thanks =)

[@globaltrekkerexplorer]

2023 I just ordered one! Thanks for the video...

[@joejitsumusic]

wow what a treat! It's been so long I've got to hear you rock some covers. I could sit and listen to you play covers for hours (and I have!) Thank you Dave!!

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@robertclarkguitar]

This is probably one of my top fave videos right now. The hands on and review here so down to earth and real. Now,. I Love this little amp and I haven't got one. I need. Thanks Dave!!!!

[@josephrutledge343]

You are the guru Dave 👍 I've been watching your stuff for awhile now and you certainly have natural talent, it's something that can't be taught 👌 Joe from Australia.

[@ToneDeth.]

My Mighty Nux Air is easily my most played amp. So simple. Plug in the wireless and away I go. Sometimes removing all barriers to guitar playing is best. Don't need to get out amps/leads etc. Just leave it anywhere in the house for inspiration.

[@andyt9080]

Just picked one of these little bueaties up for the grand sum of £70. Well happy! Only knew about them because of your videos! 👌

[@mikaashton2152]

NUX is a good brand for the price. I´ve got a Plexi Crunch pedal and it sounds great and the quality is decent .. A bit like behringer.. 30 euros if it breaks you get another one. Not like some of these boutique pedals that are more expensive than Amps?? This mini amp sounds great..

[@JohnvanMeerlant]

Absolutely amazing! Please share the settings you used...

[@Ashley-oi8cj]

I bought one of these for work a few months back. And admittedly it's one of my favourite plug and play options

[@rybol71]

Hey there, there is an alternative phone app to control this little amp ,,Mightier amp ,, on Google play store in my case. This app allows you to import IR cabs with nux ,, IR patcher,, and improvements in sounds with custom ir cabs it's amazing.

[@rybol71]

It's only works with previous amp firmware v2.2. not with current v2.3

[@BigSifu67]

Marvelous! You make that amp sound great.

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@PaulHere1953]

I commented on a previous video of yours and yes, I still love my Nux Mighty Amp. I too would have to buy another one of these amps if someone nicked it tomorrow. Unlike you, I much prefer to use the wireless dongle to connect my guitar to the amp.

[@campy3888]

I just bought my first guitar and this amp 3 months ago and I've been playing 5-6 hours a day after work. Though I barely know anything about tones it's amazing how much is unlocked and available in this tiny amp. Thanks for sharing your tone settings as you gave me some good bases to go off of. It's kind of cool that a monster player like you uses the same piece of gear as a beginner like me xD

[@bernardtrocino8874]

Love the soothsayer, insane playing Dave! lm a subscriber now. Rock on!

[@jamescarey3995]

Mighty indeed! Great playing, That thing is awesome !!

[@simonhall5931]

Bought one after your first video and it is a brilliant little amp. Have the headphone version aswell, that's equally as good.

[@leighwilsonartist]

Wow! You smashed those jams in this one Dave, my jaw was on the floor! I think I need one of these practice amps👍

[@-xLucas]

soothsayer is one of my favorite songs ever but somehow ive never bothered to learn it. now i have to. youve inspired once again dave!

[@thedavesimpson]

:)

[@mallymac9761]

That was mint, Simpels !!!

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@ziggylayneable]

The first few minutes of this remind me of something that Mark Knopfler would do. I have the same exact amplifier and I use it my videos all the time dude. Easily my favorite portable amplifier ever

[@bradsmusicbox]

Phenominal playing Dave. Wow.. blown away over here

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@renodavid]

So cool that you’re still using this little tone machine. The sounds you get out of it are inspiring. I’m pretty convinced that Nux is really onto something special here. The passive radiator has to play a huge part in getting such a full sound out of this tiny box. It sounds much better than if they were using a simple speaker like they have in the Blackstar Fly. They’re kind of taking a page out of the Bose handbook (I have one of their little Soundlink Minis and it’s amazing). Anyway, I think I’m finally going to grab one of these, but I’m just making sure Nux doesn’t come out with a new version (maybe something slightly larger?) for NAMM. Thanks again for the great demos!👏

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@Lamz..]

Awesome outro, Dave, nailing it on a 10W practice amp. Great song, nice bit of gear, but your skills make it jaw dropping!

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@PetesGuitar2303]

Loved the loner outro Dave, it was awesome, a truly fitting to a legend that is Gary Moore. Excellently played good sir, great feel and tone throughout. Love this little NUX amp

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@jimmyjimmy951]

Great relaxed review Dave. Most of us only need a small good sounding Amp… Just ask my wife..🤣 Would love to hear you give the Yamaha THR30 a go for the fun of it.. 👍🇦🇺

Thank you. :)

hiya Dave, they are excellent i have the mighty lite single speaker model, i will get the mighty air as it has more functions, i also run mine into monitor speakers. Thanks Nux, best practice and general little go to amp ever.

[@gushutchinson8758]

Wow! The intro piece is close to a religious experience as an atheist can get! That reminds me of a Beefheart instrumental on DOC AT THE RADAR STATION A CARROT IS AS CLOSE AS A RABBIT GETS TO A DIAMOND...I highly recommend it . Thanks for the music!

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

Ohh MY GOOD GRAVY that amp is amazing, and you are a true genius 👏 🎸🤘

what a mighty little beast for sure, ive got my eye on there delay/reverb combo pedal. great price point and NUX seem to make great products

[@fransvenrooy4760]

How weird this little amp sounds! Just great!! Almost heavenly.But Dave you are a magician! That's for sure.Not many guitarists can do this. Beautifull.And if i ever come across one off these i buy it in a heartbeat.But your playing is out of this world!!!! You are the best of the BEST!!!! Nobody else can play like you do.So fucking superb!🎸🎼🎶🙏👍🏻👍🏻

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@martinemesguitar]

Oh wait, that gorgeous reverb is an effect built in the amp? Holy fook that's majestic!

[@thedavesimpson]

Indeed it is. :)

[@786itube]

I wonder how this compares with the Positive Grid Spark Mini

[@robertclarkguitar]

You know me....that opening is pure GOLD..

[@thedavesimpson]

Thank you. :)

[@HatchA_Makes...]

Fading Out..... Sublime. ❤ ***edit*** I think the "room sound" comes across much better than the SN57 sound... Probably a better example of "true sound" than the mic'd settings..?

[@renodavid]

Exactly what I was thinking! I’m surprised nobody else has mentioned it. The SM57 versions sound a bit muffled to me. Maybe there was a technical issue?

[@btlfilmmedia9514]

Thanks for the advice and review

[@bsbarber73]

Great job on the Gary Moore! Love his style.

[@johnnorth9355]

Small enough to go in my coffin when I finally die . Shame I'm down to be cremated ! (sorry for the sick humour but I'm in that kind of mood). Actually walked a mile today at what I class as speed so I'm actually getting better !

[@thedavesimpson]

I'm happy to hear that. :)

[@robinbrown7890]

Dave, I have the Mighty Plug guitar headphone amp (not the Air itself).... ....its absolutely the best £50 I ever spent...I was absolutely gob smacked (sic?) when i first plugged it in. One of the main features is that you can share QR codes of your settings....so other users can have the same tone settings, just click on Share in the app and you can share by QR.....is there any chance you can share the QR code for the spacey trippy opening......my dog looooved your tone but I cant seem to recreate it....love your passion and enthusiasm for guitar...lets get more people playing! Cheers.....

[@charliebuttocks2400]

That does sound amazing Dave very ethereal

I don't have the NUX but I do have a Katana Air and this has given me a great idea how to use it. I'm becoming a patron for this. Thanks Dave!

Thank you so much. :)

[@Ray-Angel]

@@thedavesimpson you're one of the few people that talks about getting great guitar tones with modern gear and I'm with you! Your video about getting the machine gun tone is also fantastic. I've been able to do so much with those settings. If I can help you with a few $ a month it's my pleasure.

[@gushutchinson8758]

I've got switchy connection issues with a mini boss katana AND the little metal Yamaha thrs or something ,with the orange glowing light. I can't find a tech person to help what I think is a basic soldering issue. so question is ...is this thing any more ROBUST. I don't think I treat them that rough by the way! I also hate technology too.. washing machine manuals make me queasy Simple and robust is what I seek. Or an evening class in fixing dodgy connections. my 6 guitars and 4 or 5 amps and a couple of pedals ALL need their electronics tweaking. My search for a local luthier/guitar tech continues. Meanwhile is this worth splashing out for or will I snap it in a week? It's the bane of my life!! I feel jinxed with wires pulling apart! Is it me or are things not put together as well as they ought??? help.. This sounds great in your hands...of course... you've got something of the touch of a genius. The feelings come through. Your jamming brings tears to my ears ! ...music to my eyes even ... perhaps I need an appointment for ointment? rock and roll over and out

[@LilSirAxolotl]

Speaking of backing tracks... I'm not very good at playing fast but I've found Lofi Girl's hip hop radio (beats to study/relax to) channel on KZbin is really nice to jam over I'm just a big fan of hip hop though which most guitarists I know definitely are not!

Great vid as always. Q for the horde...the transmitter for this unit makes a buzz when plugged into my Tenor ukulele. I've tried adding in a 90 degree Momo adapter, no love...next step is adding in a 12 inch or so extension between the Uke and transmitter. Any other ideas/obervations? Love the amp, just wish it worked with my rig...

[@richardbrown9069]

Do you think nux will send you the mighty space to review Dave?? I have a Yamaha thr5 and love how realistic the sounds are, I just need a bluesy drive and a hall reverb and I'm happy. The nux mighty air sounds great ... I'm considering it 🤔 decisions decisions. P.s your videos have definitely helped me with dialing in a better amp tone, I use to gun the gain and I'd get some amazing sustain but lose the note definition. Cheers Dave 🍺✌️🫡
