That natural tremolo effect is not easy to come by. It’s one of my favorite things about high wattage vintage Fender amps. Overdrive kills it with all of the extra harmonics.
If you really like a Dumble style amp, there’s a lot of schematics out there of very famous examples. Building one yourself is always an option if you want to save a lot of money. You need to learn a lot of things to do it right though. That’s why nice amps like this cost a lot of money.
And - whether people appreciate it or not, other peoples time and know-how IS worth money.
There's no way I would build some of these musical things for the money they sell for. There's easier ways to make good pay and not deal with soldering turrets & gluing Tolex... This is LOVE work. I respect this fellow.
This looks awesome! I’ll just stick with my AC30.
That drive tone was incredible! Great review Phil.
Usually I don't care about playing demos very much. Everyone has a different setup and situation so I usually would rather hear about the product so I can get an idea of if it's something I would like. But these Amplified Nation amps sound so amazing that the playing demos are my favorite part. I think I prefer the last one slightly because I care more about the dirt than clean but this is amp is still amazing.
I got to play one of these at CME and compared it to a two rock vintage deluxe and I really preferred the amplified nation. It's a great sounding amp.
Gawd I love that Dumble sound …to die for!
This is my next Amp, absolutely love the way it sounds.
I have the 150 watt version of the SSS from Amplified Nation. I asked Taylor to voice it like SRVs black face SSS. The customer service was impeccable and it’s the best amp that I’ve owned or heard.
‘And my neighbours hate me!’
@@pluralisticatheist ha
This reminds me of my youth searching for that "Tone" especially "That Distortion"... not just break up or OD... I wanted to sound like my heroes... and way back then you only got rumors and hearsay from other guitar players (most being 13-16 years old with steadfast opinions)... Then I found the Big Muff! It didn't matter which amp you had (mine was 1960"-ish Blonde Fender 60w head with a 2x12 Jenson loaded cab....reverb in a box sat next to it)... it was heaven. So amps like this never made sense to me... I now have a Mesa Boogie mk v 35w combo.... killer amp and a clean pedal platform that is pure tone.
These Amplified Nation amps are IMO some of the best sounding amps out there. So amazing. Well done.
That has been my bucket list amp for 2 years now. I’m nowhere close to being able to afford it, but someday I’m hoping I can.
That tone is so smooth!
This is one of those amps that will show you, warts and all, exactly what your guitar sounds like. As much as I love the tone, that would probably send me straight down the pickup rabbit hole.
I ignore Amplified Nation and Dumble because I only play hi gain stuff. But your first review of their product blows my minds. Even I surprise myself. How come a hi gain fan, like myself, can easily fall in love with clean and breakup tone of that amp.
Good one Phil!
Thanks for putting this man's great work out in front of your audience.
Appreciate both your passion.
Really cool amp. Not something I will ever need but really nice sounds. The guitar you used is really nice as well.
You really have to be in the room and play one of these to get it. Great amps.
THAT is 1 of the most STUNNING amps I've heard in a LONG time! \m/
Sounded Great!! Nice playing, Phillip!!
I'll be getting one at some point for sure
Just found one in a pawn shop for less than 3200. Love It!!!!!
Man that sounds awesome!!!
The dumble sound was the friends we made along the way
Every steel guitar player I've ever met would consider that clean power the ultimate for country, of course I'm still in love with my Splawn which can blow your wig off with clean
- or- melt your face with hot rodded plexi saturation..that Dumble clone sounds great though, especially with P90'S
That reverb is thicc though 😳
Damn that overdrive punches like Tyson !!
Stone Gossard is playing an Amp Nation these days. Pretty massive deal for that business
not sure why I'm watching a review of an amp I can't afford
Aloha Phillip! Aloha Everyone!
Sounds amazing!
I muttered a string of expletives that would get kicked out of most anywhere when you went from the clean to the OD.
I thought I had already played my dream rig 30 years ago....
A Instagram short and this too! Phil has been very busy!😂
Ive seriously wanted one of these amps for around 2 years now . Incredible sound , but expensive . I started saving but have been held up with other things a couple of times . One day i will own one .
I would love to see you do a comparison video between the amplifonics and gain and the friedman smallbox.
After owning the wonderland overdrive, I think the amp is far more important than the guitar. These amps are game changers
Sounds amazing. What body wood, though, and yes, it matters
On my "when I hit the lottery" bucket list!
Could have bought one in 1984 when I was gigging on the road for $800! Should have!
I just bought one and yes I'm now just as good as SRV ;-)
What happens if you use nickel strings???
That a sounds like what I imagine Heaven sounds like. Thanks for sharing. It really does sound a cut above others.
Amp is nice. But now i want a Stu Hamm Urge Bass...thanks Phil!
I would love to hear a Double style amp with a modern guitar like an Ibanez Satriani model, just imagining that think would sound amazing.
Next to me is an Amplified Nation Bombshell Overdrive with a 1x12 cabinet. I‘ve played various guitars through it, an Ibanez Satriani as well, and it brings out the best of any of these guitars I‘ve plugged in so far. Anyway, do not expect ridiculous hi-hi and more hi-gain chainsaw heavy metal sounds from it. Listen to all the Robben Ford stuff, that‘s what you get from it. However, if you use a hi-gain pedal then this amp will do the real heavy stuff as well.
This was my fav amplified nation amp i got to try
That's definitely an amazing amp.
Would have liked to have heard this through one of your V30 cabinets.
Listing after an amplified nation amp at this point!
Get chad from sinewave to send you a zeropoint. Will take you to the next level
Loved this cheers
Which one of the Amplified Nations models would best be used for playing David Gilmour type of music ???
Pray-4-bluetooth speaker! My tablet can't do justice.
Totally awesome..!
I want one really bad.Probably never get one but want one really bad.
I wish they would have a more quite and smaller watt version. I mean like 5-12wtts
You can create your amp on their site .
@@TheSavagederek that is very helpful. Although that would be greatly expensive
@@christophervincent8420 yes they are in the 4 thousand dollar plus range .
i HAVE A ZEN DRIVE SIGNED BY ROBBEN FORD...DOES THAT COUNT?
i want one but would never use it live and it would just stay locked away in my studio for me only lol.
Have you tried a VHT D-50H ... It's way more affordable, I just wonder if it's even in the ballpark?
Sounds good but too many knobs and switches for me. I like a simple Fender Princeton Reverb.
I'm curious about the volume on that 50W amp. I'm using either an 18W or 20W head and 2X12 cab w/cream backs for a ~75 person room, and it's loud enough. That amp sounds really good!!! 8) Thanks, --gary
Volume won't be notably louder than an 18W or 20W head, but you'll have a ton more headroom which leads to being cleaner louder.
Watching this after Keith's short history video🤓
That thing sounds saaweeet!
Whats the guitar your playing here, Phillip? Can you (or have you) do a break down on it?
Any other amps do that sustain thing? Seems cool
Cool video. Thank you Phil. I am getting a used Morgan SW22Rc (1x12) tomorrow. I have read it is based off of a Fender DR but also read it was based off the SSS. All the articles I read say it stays very clean which seems more SSS than DR. The original SSS was only clean, correct? It does have a mid control and bright/bass switches. Does anyone know about this amp? I am hoping it is a good pedal platform. I have heard good and bad things about Joe Morgan. Mine is about 8 years old so I don't know if that matters. Thanks
Have you ever tried a Spawn amp kt88
It was supposed to say splawn amp by Scott Splawn.
Why dont you include the MSRP?
Something to put on the "when I win the lottery" list. Seems like the type of amp you just crank and before you know it, you've been playing for 3 hours.
??? Phil, what Two-Rock did you have prior to this SSS?
Does the overdrive reverb do the same sustain thing on clean 🤔
I spy a headless copper Delos!
Full and ballsy
Of all the notable users Bonnie Raitt’s tone is the most compelling. Just as soon hear Eric Johnson through a cherry picked Plexi.
Starts at 4 grand. Yikes
Cheper than a Dumble? 😅
Sounds to me like it’s worth every penny. 😊
Vintage 70s marshalls are in that same pricerange.
Considering this, these are worth the money. Just not to everybody.
what sunburst strat is that on the wall behind you?
I think he liked the look of the Dumble more than the sound. Just sayin.
4 Grand plus the cost of a divorce lawyer. Ouch!
Who you callin' dumble?
Turns out tone is in the gear. 😂
Steel String Singer? Sounds sizzly.
Its expensive for what it is.
This is 5500 usd to my country. That is ridiculous. That’s perverse. I honestly don’t get it. It sounds nice, and it is good. But it’s not even close to worth it to me.
But it’s your money. 😎
Dumbles sounds good but damn they're overrated and overpriced.
Is this the amp you talked about in the October 16 2023 episode of the podcast???
Prefer my English amps my vox and marshall from the eighties
