    Honestly it's not my type, it's a little over the top for me. When you first showed the pedal I immediately thought of the Ibanez pentatone pedal for some reason, which I have and actually really like. If I was going for something like this I would go for the Northern Mauler from Revv. I have an original Boss HM2 Japan version I use every so often, but use several other drive pedals and stack a few . Great video as always, Cheers!

    John, what an amazing review of the CSX! Truly one of the best videos about my switchers, you did an outstanding job, thank you so much for your hard work. I love how you explained the CSX, menu, midi and everything, and especially the linking! It was a lot of fun to watch you linking the switchers for the first time, great success! Some very nice cabs that you have, they all sound great but the mesa v30 is my favorite (as expected ^^). Thank you very much again, you will hear from me shortly. I hope you have fun with the CSX, you can keep the unit :) All the best, Markus

    I like the Swamp Thing, has a nice warm balanced sound. The V30s always had that (Bee hive) sound too me , never been crazy about it. I have the DV-77 speaker in my Marshall JCM800 4010 combo and absolutely love it. Both of those Eminence speakers seem to have more clarity and a solid thick tone, to me the V30s have always sounded a little thin, maybe it's the 5-6K frequency I'm hearing. Great content you always put out!

    Trying to make my own IR, I failed, there was this horrible ground... A test take was saved by Ctrl + z, the speaker was a Celestion Rocket 50! It sounded nice with a Rockville RCM03 mic. You should try that combination man, is an interesting speaker cuz is low budget, less popular and seems it got a bad reputation or something, yet it doesn't sound bad in my opinion, I do prefer it over a V30 (I don't remember which year, I saw your video months ago lol) and for a bright amp like the EVH it may balance things out. In my case, the position of the mic was Cap edge. No fizz. I did try some of the free IR you shared man, I did enjoy the sweet spot on this one. Is kinda cool I didn't need to cut like crazy, just a HP & LP. I believe the Tornado with the EVH could sound interesting with a R121 or a darker mic. Swamp Thang + 57 is a nice combination. Better to experiment it that believing what other says. ...So, Rocket 50 test next 😂 Btw I did a video with the results. Carvin X-100B + Boss Gt-10 + Revv G3/G4 + Swamp Thang sweet spot IR 👍 Great job on the IR 🤘

    F25 isn't bad but for high gain tones there isn't enough complexity and impact on the low end. Kind of a lack of "thumpiness" I think. On it's own at least.

To me the crunch settings with the Strat sounded more pleasing. Also, it is the speaker i like least to be paired with the V30, so far. But, other might have a different opinion.🤗
