- I'm playing a wonderful 1980s Dynacord Reference 500 Guitar Tube amp. It's digitally controlled and you can save pre sets and it's got Midi. The amp is housed in a 19" rack that in turnm is housed in the 1x12 speaker cabinet equipped with a Celestion G12H100 (A speaker that Billy Gibbons used in the 1980s by the way ). I'm playing the amp using a 2021 Fender Telecaster CS 60 Relic.
Very good sounding Amp. Never heard it before. Sounds very balanced and clear, like it was engineered for studio recording. Thanks
Thanks!
Fantastic... I have a Dynacord reference 602, you don't see these amplifiers often and you show up with one, you have a good and interesting channel Johan!
OMG I have this amp sitting in my cellar. It's the first amp I ever got, from my late uncle, when I started off with bass when I was a teen over 20 years ago. The memories... It's not working since many years sadly, always wanted to get it repaired some day...
take it to someone
@@richsackett3423 yeah I gotta find someone who's able. I imagine it having a digital section, repairs could be complicated
@@nothingEvil101 Usually on stuff like that it's just a plain-old power supply issue. He likely won't have to go into the computer-y parts.
Hi, Johan!
Its a legendary company. I remember, in 80-s we had only one in our town. Everybody was talking about it and I never had no experience with this. But sounds not bad at all! See you!
S.
Thanks man! See you
Oho! ... didn't meet this red beauty ... but i remember Dynacord well ... the Sprint was one of my fav. clean ones back in 1974 ... they made great power mixers too ...
Indeed a very nice crunchy sounding combo, Johan! I would love to hear it with massive boosted input signal as well. 🤘 Thanks for sharing! 😍
Thanks Gunther! Glad you like it
Well, after watching your channel for something like 10 years now, I have to say that it just sounds like you! But this amp sounds like a great all purpose amp. This would be great as a go to studio amp.
I have a 1000 120 watt J its loud. In the 80 I had the 500 super amp.
Nice :) Thank you for this. Hope you are going to showcase the drive.
From the settings in the video I am curious as to what tubes it is set up with.
Atm I have an EVM12L in mine, the Reference 1000 combo had that as standard :)
Nice an clear. DOES it get dirty at all Joh?
Sounds good on this end..would be cool to hear some humbucker pickups.
Thanks Dan! Humbuckers are coming back in the next video
What? I can't be the first. I feel self- conscious. Sounds pretty fresh and open, Johann. Thanks
😆 Thanks!
I think this is the sound for mostly every style (no jazz)
Nice, Johan! Now try to get your hands on a Reference 1000 - the 100 Watts combo. Equipped with an Electro Voice 12S (not to be confused with those 12L variants!) you'll get the real deal towards Marshall territory!! Believe me, that thing is a wall crusher... And together with, say, a Behringer midi footcontroller you switch the presets from a safe distance, ha,ha.
Got one ;-)
Hi johan please make video fender hot road deluxe with pulsonic greenback or vintage fender speaker
Hi! I’ll keep it in mind
Where do you find all this ‘junk’ equipment? …goes to show you can get good sounds out of most anything if you’ve got an ear
At time he gets them borrowed by his people to make these videos reviews ! But I'm sure he has some beast amps of his own lol 😊
