kris86 « A good amp but a bit heavy »
Published on 11/12/12 at 12:20This re-edition of the marshall of "Slowhand" 62 the tone is the same as in 1962 ...
- 2HP 12 inches
- Mono channel
- No reverb
- No OD or distortion
- 3 band + Equalos presence - tremolo
- Look nice
UTILIZATION
And repet in concert 15 years without worry.
No manual (is it necessary?)
it depends on what you expect but with a good scratch, it feels serious blues!
SOUNDS
I play rock, blues, motown ... U.S. Deluxe strat with Texas Special rise and multi-effects BOSS ME5. I love SRV sound (clear and Sat '), Hendrix and many "Kings".
The sound is ... 62! When I read the criticism of its rustic and lack of versatility, I think that these buyers should not have eyes in front of the holes when they are purchased.
Then, the sound is clear ... clear as 62 at Marshall (hot, ample, lots of bass, not very bright ...). Some say it is mythical.
For overdrive I use my ME5 in OD1 mainly with Reverb ... (brief, given that nothing on the amp, I catch the pedal). If you like the bass was low! the knob "Presence" is useful and effective.
Large amplitude, very powerful (I rarely exceeds 2 in flight. Well in concert)
OVERALL OPINION
I carry around for 15 years together and repet. I say I carry around because it weighs an ass the guy! And not easy to brew for the size.
He did his service, I'm happy (proof, I have not changed since the time), but without passion ... His weight became prohibitive now, then I think to replace it because it is more adapted to our time (since it is 62!). Now, we transplanted the guitars need 100W or more and 35 kilos of this amp.
I would add that even my buddies Hardcore Metalheads love it! Ditto with a good pedal and ESP pickups, this amp does wonders (its heavy, lots of bass, large amplitude ...)
Anyway I move into Koch Twintone or Egnater Rebel 30W more manageable (and allowing me to pass also my pedal because they have all the reverb and OD)
