Daniel is a great guy to deal with. His customer service is over the top. He's easy to buy from. He makes sure to answer my loads of questions. I have referred quite a few people to him. He is one of the nicest humble owners I have dealt with Suhr and Tom Anderson. Very thorough in his interactions! Keep up the great service!
Bought a Merino a few years back, great amp!
Great video! I have great respect for people who love what they do and share their passion with the world.
Cool video
I watched a video on another channel the other day, talking about the future of tube amps, and they said there isn’t very many options aside from major manufacturers, and I started rolling off the names of small amp manufacturers. Now I know one more
More amp videos please! I like learning from people who are really into amps and there isn’t much on UA-cam if you’re not looking at a modern Vox, Fender, or modeling amp
They look great amps! I'd love to get a Merino combo one day. 😎
Guitar Center had a used cab listed as "Pork City Amps." I laughed really hard.
When I used to gig, I owned two Pearl 50w heads and matching 2x12 vertical Wave cabs. One to gig/keep at rehearsal space - and one to keep at home. Great pedal-platform amp. For drive, I ran a JHS Andy Timmons in the front and a Strymon Timeline through the loop. That setup was magic. It held it's own against the other guitar player's Bogner Shiva. His cabs are simply the best cabs made. I've owned several: vertical 2x12, horizontal 2x12, and a couple of 1x12's. If you're thinking of buying a Mesa Thiele or a Bogner cube, don't do it until you check his 1x12's out. I've owned a number of Mesa and Bogner 1x12's and Daniel's 1x12's smoke them. The biggest sounding little cabs you will ever play. On a few occasions, I reached out to Daniel. I always got a fast response. He was super gracious with his time. Happy to see him succeed. Great guy.
I would sure like to check those amps out. I'm using JC 120 right now and looking at the ML Fender, but I like what I heard from Daniel. I think the cabinet itself is really the underated part of the amp because if not sturdy, you aren't going to get a good sound.
Same design I made for my classic 30 in 2002.
I want that Les Paul custom, and that SG that's hanging on the wall.
I used to have a Port City Pearl 100 and a 2x12 standard Wave cabinet. Hands down the best amp I've ever owned. Sucked in OD pedals like a Dyson great effects loop. I'll probably get a 50 watt combo someday
Talk to us about solid wood cabinets.
jusr for reference you can get about 4 gibson eds-1275s(70s and 80s) for 5ok lol... gibsons pricing has gotten a bit too ridiculous
"I'm not your personal Google" is an odd perspective, especially when you learned so much from builders just trying to order parts from Mojo.
The 800 to 8000 sale story is kinda awful. We have all been in a position like that and guilty, but...
nice Vidz mou droogies. Live 4 Ever Compadres
