First let me say that I love this guy and his company. He is an artist and a craftsman in a world where there are few of these left.. I have a Benson Amp of only which Chris knows exactly what it is. Buts it is cool and has a thing. I also just purchased a Studio Tall Bird Reverb serial number 007... One thing that I can say for sure is that there will be more Benson designs in my studio's arsenal. Steve Marinaccio Green Chapel Studios Schooleys Mountain NJ
I just saw Mark Nathan playing a Benson amp at the Heatless Bastards concert this week. I had not heard of your amps until now, but OMG that amp sounded sooooo good. Nice work !
I just got a Benson Preamp pedal, which is essentially a Chimera preamp with FET's instead of tubes, and it's made me want to get rid of all of other overdrive pedals as they simply cannot compare anymore. Game changer to say the least.
I'm so excited to get my Monarch (and I loved my Nathan Jr!) But what I really want to know (having not seen this before) is if the Bed Head was inspired by the Texas band Bedhead!
scott b How is the Vinny with pedals? Mainly reverb and delay pedals? I am thinking about downsizing my amp for gigging but I use pedals. The Vinny seems great in their demo tho!
scott b Thanks, I appreciate the reply! I was wondering if you could use the Monarch with the smaller Vinny cab too, now I know! I thought about buying the Vinny Set with Cab and later on just buying the monarch head and use it with the vinny cab or the one i currently own (I have a orange 2x12 cab for bigger gigs but who wants to carry that around all the time). Thanks again man!
I have a Benson preamp. It's great. Best pedal I have ever tried in front of a big Fender Twin reverb. However, these people are so low energy and diffuse it would drive me mad working there. Is pot legal in Portland or something? I felt sleepy just watching this.
@@gringopig I've been thinking of getting one. My amp doesn't have reverb so I use a Strymon Flint and don't use any other pedals but it'd be handy to have something for leads that's easier than having to ride the guitar volume or twist the gain knob, both of which I'm used to
This is so Portland it hurts, but I love it 😁
The special blend coffee is missing , otherwise A+ deluxe ... lol*
With a little bit of Seattle as he was at Verellen before starting Benson

Just ordered a Vinny today, I’ve watched this, now I’m super stoked and cannot wait!

Actually, yes. Never thought anyone would be in a position to notice tho!
@@BensonAmps haha, amazing! One of my favorite bands ever.

the vinny is great with pedals....sometimes i use the monarch head with the vinny cab and that sounds killer too.

Great job!!! I'm so sorry you are so far away from me.... I really love the sound of your amps
These amps sound and look great. But, could these dudes be any more Portland?!? Designer camo over sarcastic wolf shirt. Love it!
Do you make bass amps too? Proud of another Benson success.
Chris
Your doing my job with that silk screening there Buddy 😳 Lol
Miss ya man ..

What mic is that dangling?
Sennheiser e609
Great amps from the once great State of Oregon.
So rad
