What Does Joes Think?

What a beast! First time hearing the tube-rectified version of this amp and I am in love. There’s something extra juicy and especially punchy about this one. I dialed it in with a Strat, EQ switches up and just a little scoop in the mids. Gain and Master at 2 o’clock delivered delicious harmonics in the preamp section and got those 6L6’s blooming in the output section.

The bottom end on this amp is taught, but huge. The midrange is present when you dig in, but backs out of the way when you play with a lighter touch. The trebles are smooth but shimmering. The Reverb is lush but sits back nicely in the mix, allowing you to run it all the way past noon without getting in the way.

For the overdrive channel I rode the Drive knob around 10 o’clock and the Overdrive Level at 11:00. This gave plenty of room to work the volume knob on the guitar to clean it up or grab just the right vowel on the note. For incredibly edgy rhythm tones, try adding the preamp boost to push the upper mid frequencies and tighten up the lows, all while remaining very sensitive to the volume control.

I thought for sure things would get a little out of hand when I switched to humbuckers. But no! I didn’t need to make a single EQ adjustment. Sure, I was hit with a little extra gain and that was fun. In the end I backed the Gain knob down about one digit so I could maintain a nice mostly-clean tone on the clean channel. But the amp sat just as well with ‘buckers as it did with single coils!

As mentioned above, the head is the tube-rectified version of the 50W, sporting a pair of GZ34 tube rectifiers. This rig includes a matching oversize 112 cab loaded with a Celestion G12-65. I wouldn’t change a thing. For cosmetics, you’ve got a rich Blue Croc tolex and Black Sparkle Grill. Both head and cab are included in the listing, along with power cable, footswitch and 7-pin DIN footswitch cable.
