It's incredible how this tiny tube amp with only a 6inch speaker produces the tones we vintage rock and roll lovers long for, without the raspy harshness we usually associate tiny speakers with! The metal 6SJ7 preamp tube and 5B1/5C1 circuit create a unique dark voice for this amp. It's warm, has a permanent rich harmonic distortion and is super dynamic. Jazz to Rock, pedal platform, low volume studio recordings, no problem. Please enjoy and let me know what you'd like to see this amp do. Let's make it last to 100 years old working, this one!
Truly enjoyed this video! Thanks for the trip to tube amp heaven! I have a re-issue 600 and can only dream of getting tones like this! Great playing as well, sir.
BTW, the reissue can be modded - quite easy if you've got amp soldering experience - to behave and sound like a 5F1 tweed champ. I've got a video on the channel going through that process. Kind Regards,
I've been fortunate enough to be in the same room with that amp and it sounds freakin' amazing. I really LOVE big amps, I believe dr Freud has something to say about that 😂, but this thing sounds huge! You'd never believe it was a 6 inch speaker. Aldo's not only a monster player but he's pretty handy fixing and maintaining tube amps.
Thanks Chris, well there's a limit to where pushed feels good. With Tele and Strat maxed out will work fine, with buckers and p90 the speaker has a ceiling. But slightly at the breakup edge and colored with it really works well. Volume is gentle to the ears too. Regards,
@@AldoSpadaroOfficial Any live Mick Taylor from '72/'73 is always welcome! I've been listening to Shine A Light a lot, stumbled across this beautiful solo he played in 2012: ua-cam.com/video/XOgN-RBjldg/v-deo.html

Good show, Aldo...
Thanks, Jonny!

Thanks so much for the kind words, man!
You're very welcome dude!
I have one of these. The biggest improvement can be found in trying new speakers and different preamp tubes. Ymmv
indeed . the speaker is garbage in this amps
Great job!
Thought the clean tones were quite good.
Not sure it can take being pushed though.

Aldo my friend, any Stones content in the works? Champ sounds wonderful!
Hi Tuco! Let's do it, what would one need to see and hear?

I'd also love to see you do a gear tour someday (guitars, amps, anything really)! Thanks for asking!
