Hey Rez, This video is a re upload of a video I made a couple years ago. I was planning on being a van tuber but my Mom got sick and I couldn't get the plan all the way together so I stayed home. Now I have lost the desire to travel the world and kinda just want to stay around my hometown. I hop you had a great 4th dude Ken:D As an aside If my band ever gets some traction I still would love to see the United states and visit with every one I meet:D

Hey there, I know I’m a year late to this but alas, better late than never. I have the chance to get one of these for a pretty reasonable price. I’m looking for an amp to replace my Orange Crush 12, and I mainly play like Tool, Metallica, stuff like that, but I’d be using it as a bedroom amp, is it able to suit well for those kind of sounds without being cranked all the way up?
@downstairsgearnguitars-kc7uq
@downstairsgearnguitars-kc7uq 16 күн бұрын
I definitly think it can work. Its a very good amp. It may have slightly less gain than the Orange but not wimpy, If you boost with an overdrive than no problem whatsoever it will be perfect. It also might sound Heavier if you scoop your mids. I usually don't scoop my mids but I think it may sound more metal that way. Sorry for not saying for sure but basically it depends on weather you like to boost or how much gain you need. feel free to keep in contact if you have specific questions. Ken:D

Hey Lionel thank you so much for your question. The answer to your question depends on how much you love power tube distortion. For me the answer is That I can get perfect tones for me at bedroom levels. But if you are very experienced and you absolutely need to melt your power stage then a lower wattage amp may be better in that situation. One more thing comes to mind and that is with an attenuator you can do anything you desire with this amp. Hope this helps. Ken :D

I just picked up a DSL40 after trading in a bunch of gear that I wasn't using. My only real gripe is that the 4 channels don't have their own EQ's. In that regard, this amp really fits the bill. It might be too much amp for me though. I've seen it at $1999 at some of the online retailers, so it is considerably less expensive than its MESA competitors, and others. Money is tight for me too, so maybe one day. In the meantime, I am digging my first tube amp. Everytime I plug in, it's hard to believe the difference in sound.

@@downstairsgearnguitars-kc7uq $650 vs $1999. No complaints from me. I'm just having fun finding happy mediums in the volume/gain for all 4 channels so I can switch through them without touching anything. The overdrive pedal really helps in that regard in that I can ease back on the gain in the clean/crunch channel. Have a good one!
