Most of the reviews out there of this amp demonstrate the high gain side of the amp - I have one of these, and what actually sold it for me was the low gain/edge of breakup tone I get from it. Its really good. I was never a fan of the typical Orange loosey goosey squishy high gain sound - I typically like things a little tighter. Throw a Freidman BE OD pedal in front of this and theres your tight high gain. The clean channel is a little darker than the dirty - but nothing a little EQ can't fix. This is an amazing amp for $400 - its my go to amp now and my Soldano can stay home where its safe !
Hey dude, I know you're a Belligerent Amateur and culling your gear, but would you consider a shootout vid between a modern class D and A/B solid state amps?. Class D still has a bad rap from it's early days from 40 or 50 years ago, but it's improved a lot!.
Just discovered you through Glenn Fricker. As a fellow lefty, LOVE this demo. As one that already wanted a Revstar, never expected it to be one I’d use for metal. Absolutely stellar!
Nice review mr. De Leij!! Je hebt er een sibscriber bij😇. Ff een vraagje is deze amp ook geschikt voor thuis gebruik vanwege dat ie een master volume heeft en een solid state is?? Graag hoor ik het van U bvd.
Good lord you made that amp sound incredible. I couldn't tell what i liked more. The tone or the playing. Very nice Edit: i commented too soon. It kept getting better and better. I'm subscribed now.
Imagine that im considering buying a super crush and the best Aborted guitarist is testing it. Im so glad i found your channel, your riffs are mind bending homie Edit: Im pretty sure I peeped John Gallagher from Dying Fetus running one of these recently, considering he is a solid state enjoyer with his Ampeg VH140c, Ive definitely been considering it.
Ik vond jou via Glenns SpectreSoundStudios laatste video, je speelt een heerlijk potje gitaar! +1sub , groetjes uit Hellgium, het landje ten zuiden van Holland 😄
love your vids dude!!!, I've watched this multiple times!. I'm thinkiing this amp will definitely do it for Corrosion Of Conformity and Down style music, especially since 'i can't afford a Thunderverb.
He likely ignored the XLR Out on the head and went speaker out into a reactive load box like the Two Notes Torpedo Captor X. Another option could be using the effects send to go straight into an audio interface with and using an speaker emulator/IR plugin in his DAW.
I got one of these super crush amps. The clean channel sounded great, the dirty was just lacking something for me. I ended up swapping it for a Rocker 15 Terror, just sounds better to me. I’ve had loads and still got a couple of solid state amps..but always seem to favour the tube sound, The Rocker 15 sounds great and very versatile with the headroom to bedroom attenuation. Informative video though..thanks
I’ve had the head for a few months now I pulled the vintage 30 out of a PPC112 cab and put in a celestion Redback 150 watt speaker 🔈 to make a light weight rig. I’m done this does it for me. Great amp I love how it does the tube like things when gain and volume get turned up and the controlled feedback is soooo much fun.
1) Yes, it can. 2) There are many great solid state amps. The whole tube elitism is caused by LOW-END solid state amps - crappy practice combos and their overgrown versions like Ibanez Toneblaster. 3) Try a used Ampeg VH140C or an H&K Black Spirit 200.
For anyone who is into say halen rock this amp with the dirty channel will not work for you ! if you want stoner doom sound then cool. The clean channel is great all my pedals sound awesome threw this so you don't need the return really unless you want too !
You’re holding the guitar wrong! LOL! In all honesty there’s something about the high end that seems sterile to my ears. Maybe you need to put a parametric EQ in the loop ala Dimebag. But it sounds super tight!

I am loving every single riffs that you're playing in this demo. I would love to hear you making use of this amp in one of your songs in the future.
if you max out the master volume and use the channel volume to taste, it will add more resonance and presence to the amp
Bro love the tone you dialled. Lots of note clarity. Came for the amp but stayed for the riffs 🤘
I had a solid state bass amp and that thing was a beastly sounding amp

These Revstars sound incredible and so does your playing! Riff monster

Thank you for making an accurate review with no doctoring, heard way too many video's where it sounded way better than this !
Loving mine. Takes pedals very well too.
most do
your chord choices are killer!!!
Dammit man now you’re making me want to get one of these!

Sound like Fall Of Troy, and thomas also using Orange as his main amp. Great video btw!
Orange amps always seem to have a smooth fat saturation.. I guess that why they're a doom/stoner metal fave
How did you bypass the cab sim on the DI in order to use your own IR? Amazing playing by the way and it’s great to see another Revstar wielder!!!!

Are you going to react and breakdown the rest of the new muse album? Loved your other vids
Yes
What did you think of the amp? Would a tube (orange) amp sound better?

your hands are huge...what are you 6'3"? Killin it.
Awesome amp. 👍
Loving that REV too. Kinda tired of the big 4 shapes.
Could I plug this into my interface and use amplitude 5’s cab sims?
With an Loadbox yes
@@Mendelian would a two notes torpedo captor 16 work?
@@tdaalien7820 Yes, but check out my loadbox comparison video. I’d advise the Driftwood or RedSeven.
@@Mendelian will do. Thanks for the response 🤘🏾
@@Mendelian one more question. Could I just connect the amp to my audio interface through the fx loop without buying a load box? Since it’s a SS amp.
1) Yes, it can.
2) There are many great solid state amps. The whole tube elitism is caused by LOW-END solid state amps - crappy practice combos and their overgrown versions like Ibanez Toneblaster.
3) Try a used Ampeg VH140C or an H&K Black Spirit 200.
Can this go directly to my Axe Fx ? obviously id skip the amp section on it the chain , but would that work?
Tells me about nothing of the Amp but thumbs up 😀
You didn't come here to be told with the amp does. You came here to hear what the amp does. 😊
Hoping this amp will make me play like you!
what body wood, neck and fingerboard wood and pickups do you like in your guitars?
Mahogany body, roasted neck, Ebony fretboard.
+ Fishmans Devin Townsend
@@Mendelian mahogany with a maple top or without a maple top? Do you like a fixed bridge or hardtail
Just here waiting for your breakdown of the new Muse album.
It’s coming :)!
@@Mendelian Waiting for your video is almost harder than waiting for the album to come out was 😂
Man, play DESCENDING UPON HADES please !!!
if you have a captor plug it in and use the 20db to a cab and watch and hear what happens i have no idea why this makes it sound way better ?
This amp works with a closed back cab loaded with a 150watt celestion Red Back speaker.
that revstar! oh im drooling! are you a lefty or is it the camera? awesome riffing. metal with crunch
I’m a lefty!

I'd actually really like to hear that. I wasn't impressed at all with this amp, but I'm sure it sounds better in a mix.
Sounds rather muffled and muddy
