I'd like to take a second to appreciate Dagan being the one guy to demo this amp who doesn't run a crazy 9-string scalloped Ibanez with Fluence pickups and a Floyd tuned to Drop G tuning and then use nothing but the first fret on the lowest string.

What an amazing and comprehensive review and demo. I'm a total metal head and I love the 6505 ± tone from bands like Chimaira and the master Rob Arnold. But, this shows me what I wanted to hear. All the other great things that make this amp so great. Dagan you're just as awesome as the amp.
@westcoastbrotha Жыл бұрын
Bruh, I am also a HUGE Rob Arnold fan. Question, do you think this mini tube head would be a suffice for something heavy but with less crazy high watts? I live in an apartment but really want to invest in something that will give me the heaviness I want. I doubt I’d be able to work with the 6505+ with a 4x12 mesa boogie cabinet lol

I can't really discern from the video, how is the clean channel in your opinion? I assume it'll be a bit better than the full size due to the different tubes
@zackakai51735 ай бұрын
@@joeybydin439 I've had one for about two years now. The default clean channel IMO is a little dull, but with the bright switch on it's actually pretty damn cool. It's a little Vox-ish to my ear with some nice chime in the high end. That said it REALLY doesn't have a lot of spare headroom, and I had to swap one of the pre-amp tubes for something a little less noisy to comfortably run more than about one drive pedal into it (don't remember what exactly, but I'm sure there's a guide online). If I were buying something strictly for cleans and had the money to burn, I'd spring for a Vox or Fender. If you're looking for a good metal amp for not a lot of money that also has a decent clean channel, and you're willing to put in a little work, you can do a lot worse than this.

This recently became available in Australia again a few weeks ago and I snapped one up! What a BEAST!! Well worth the purchase! The rhythm channel can still get a great clean to a JMP-JCM 800 ish (think Def Leppard High n Dry) to that rip your face off 6505 we all know and love on the lead channel. Gain for days and if you put a screamer in front of your choice it’s pure heaven!

@jeffreypcoaltrainАй бұрын
Great demo, but I'm unsure whether you accurately described what the enable/defeat switch does. According to the manual, "this feature effectively disconnects any speaker/cabinet connected to the SPEAKER OUTPUT and redirects the output to an internal dummy load." So I don't think the impulse response in the MSDI is ever turned off, that switch just allows you to play/record silently without a speaker cab or separate dummy load connected to the speaker output. And you'd have to insert a Two Notes into the speaker output and ignore the MSDI altogether to get different IR's... Right? Love your stuff, dude!

@@iangarza990 I'm for having a mic further away to capture ambience to blend in, but generally if I had only 1 mic, I'd start by put it right up to the grill, especially for a lower watt amp so you can capture as much low end and warmth as possible. Angling mics are fine as well but it adds colour rather than straight. I'll often have one straight and one angled and blend the 2. But, again, if I had one mic it would be straight on the grill. As far as where the mic on the cone goes, generally the closer to the cap the brighter, the further the darker. Shift that to taste. If you're going for bright EVH tones I'd put it closer. Just my 2 cents. It's fun experimenting with mic placement!
