i got this amp and i have to say its amazing. the demos on youtube are most exclusively done with the combo version. it has the celestion Vintage30, thats not the best speaker for fender cleans. that why the cleans are not as nice here. i have the head version of the amp and play it with other speaker and the cleans are amazing! shimmering glassy fender sounds, vintage throaty fender sounds, fat meaty leads and everything in between. thro in fx loop with level controls, great sounding reverb, amazing build quality. i like to tinker with tubeamps and this one is a beauty when u look at the insides, every component easily accessible just taking the head out of the cab. very service friendly and really thought out layout.
Well played clean sounds. Not as boring as usually amp demos are! The Notch control is something like the Blackstar's ISF, don't you think? Unfortunately, the high gain sounds are not as tight as the Polish "Machette" amps.
I have this combo amp as well as a Fender Mustang amp. I play a Fender Am. Std. Strat as well as a few Gibsons (SG and LP). The Mustang amp is a good amp. I use it for practice and recording. But the Machete sounds so much nicer. The Machete wounds a lot more alive.
I can't believe Fender discontinued this amp.. This is probably the best-sounding "gain" tone from them.
wow..thats one of the best sounding, most versatile amp ive ever seen/tested/played with...simply amazing all it can do...very good..

have you change valves to improve it? i got the combo version and i want to improve cleans
wow. I think it's going to be a sought after classic
I hope so as I own two. Absolutely killer amp!
I love the clean slash crunch on this amp so responsive!!
ahhhh i want a used machete cant find one anywhere nowadays thats how u know its a real epic amp.
Sounds OK . Varied range of tones. Nice looking guitar.
This sounds like every guitar center ever.

Fender Select Stratocaster is awesome :)
That was a very unimpressive demo of the clean channel. Playing to fast to hear the amps voice
Don’t like it. Like the G-DEC3 better. (And my Marshall 2000’s. Lol
What's wrong with the way my ears look? Did you bother checking before making a silly little kids comment?
That sounded like a cheap modelling amp.
Jesus the sound quality of this video is terrible
