Переглядів 511Рік тому

Zephyr 40 1x15' Jensen C15K Diaz Mod
Переглядів 3,5 тис.Рік тому
If you really want to get that greasy Texas Boogie going on, then the Zephyr 40 should be your first pick. Using the hallowed AB763 circuit, this amp “floods” 40w of output via 2x 6L6 tubes into an 8Ω 1x15 C15K Jensen for sweet Southern tone to the bone. For the SRV fans this amp has a second channel option with Cesar Diaz inspired mods and a larger output transformer plus solid state rectifica...
Argos 50w Amplifier Head - 2x12 G12H75 Creamback
Переглядів 1,9 тис.3 роки тому
If you want that familiar rock sound and tone that defined the late 70’s and 80’s, but with the unparalleled flexibility of the Argos range, then the Achillies 50w head is right up your alley! Take the benchmark cascaded preamp architecture, add in solid-state rectification and an EL34 output section, and the Argos 50w head will deliver tight cleans, classic mid-gain rock tones through to high ...
Klon & Jan Ray have the sizzle, be good to have the klon playin the same riffs that the others did, and a amp only signal to compare to. Very nice setup with the Collings & that Zephyr. Love your gear, and made in Aus makes it even better 👌
Thank you for your response, and I have taken note of the ideas for different videos that could be made.
Amazing, I love mine 😍👍 not this model a twin with timber
Thanks, I remember. I believe it was made from zebrano timber.
As the owner of this amp, I have to say it sounds even more beautiful than it looks (which is saying something). It sounds crystal clear at low volumes and develops a beautiful natural overdrive at higher levels. The vibrato is smooth and sounds great. I play guitar usually just as a hobby but this amp has really made me feel inspired and love playing even more than I did before. The only downside is that it's so nice that I can't rest my beer on this it and need to use a side table. Labros was great to deal with too. He kept me up to date with my order, was responsive to emails and completed everything within the estimated time frames he gave me when I first ordered the amp. He sent through photos with different grill and handle options so I could choose the ones I thought looked best. All in all, a 10 out of 10 from me.
Thanks for your kind reply! It was a pleasure to build, and hopefully I can do more like these in the future.
Amazing amp, I have had one for a couple of years now and it just keeps getting better! 👌
That's great to hear - they really are special amps!
I have a achillies apollo b45 4x10 victorian oak rossana red lacquered finish. i absolutely love it, sounds as amazing as it looks. my 19 year old son has just started an apprenticeship carpenter joiner and looks at it in amazement. This amp will be handed down thru the family as i will never part with it. thanks for such a beautiful and killer sounding amp Labros
That's fantastic to hear you're loving the Apollo! That Rossana Red was my favourite Apollo B45 that left the workshop; great to know it will be passed down in the family. Thanks for sharing!
Amp looks Great
Cheers!
Nice. Harvard?

Thanks for this great video Labros, fantastic to see the amp build process, that's a stunning timber finish. 👍 To anyone considering an Achillies amp, my Argos 50W and 2x12 cab are flawless in build quality and sound, hard to imagine anything better. Love your work man.
Thanks so much for the kind words! I'll be showing more builds so stay tuned!
Love my Achillies Argos 40w head! Considering a Nyx 8w combo. What wood and finish are you using in the video above? Does not look like pine! And how would go about ordering something similar for a Nyx 8w?
Good to know you’re still loving the Argos! Malaysian Rosewood is the name of that wood, finished in Linseed Oil. I barely have enough of this extremely rare timber for a few more amps before it runs out. We can talk about all the specifics and specifications over the phone or via email as this would be a custom order build.
Great amps. Love mine.
Thank you! Glad to hear you're enjoying yours!
Achillies amps are Fantastic! I know what I am talking about 🎸😉 I love this video!
Rock on!
Fabulous, great to watch the process!
Glad you enjoyed the build process, it was a lot of fun to film!
That looks amazing. Great video.
Thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed it!
Labor’s built a 1968 head cabinet for my 77 2203 and the attention to detail, craftsmanship and materials is top shelf. The original 68 plexi amps he used to build looked incredible.
That's awesome to hear! Thank you so much!
What is the main differences between a fender AB763 circuit compared to the Achillies Zephyr 40 circuit? The Diaz mods are what?
Except for a few component differences, the Zephyr 40 and the AB763 have essentially the identical layout. The Diaz mods primarily generate a more aggressive attack and tighten the top end.
Awesome sounding and looking to. I want one.
Thank you!
I've owned British and American tone amps. Achillies are superior craftsmanship, attention to detail and tone. Any guitarist who discovers Achillies will hear, agree and feel exactly the same.
Thanks for the kind words!
Sounds killer. Would sound great with an emenince legend imo
Emenence Legend would really growl in that amp; I hope to do another video with that and a few others.
That sounds great!! A mate bought the little Nyx (l think?) crackin thing, sounded 3 dimensional. When l win lotto (or the kids bugga off) l wanna get the Princeton.
Those Nyx amps pack a punch and can sound huge when plugged into an extension cabinet.
This sounds great
Amazing sweet amp. there is something going on with 40 watts, it's like the magic number.
Couldn't agree more!
I want all the Achilles amp 😅 To say they have excellent tone would be an understatement
What an awesome amp
