  • HUGE thank you to Eli from Two-Rock for building me this amp about a year ago, I never thought I would own a Two-Rock, and how special this amp is isn't lost on me.

    Two-Rock is without a doubt one of the most legendary modern amp companies, and I've finally gotten the chance to live with one for about a year now after many years of not fully understanding the hype. It's quickly become one of my favorite amps for almost every musical situation, it's a true workhorse amp. In today's video I'm going to walk you through the full feature set of my Two-Rock Classic Reverb Signature, and show how truly versatile it can be.

    Absolutely amazing, this is the best walk-through of the Classic Reverb I have seen. I think the difference is you have used it for a year and genuinely want to share your experience (Rather than trying it out for a week for a video). While I'm not sure your personal sound from the amp is the "classic" Two Rock sound, it is obviously one of the amazing sounds from this amp and one that I did not realize this "clean platform" provided. Thank you!

      The newest TR model is based on a DR, and Mick said he wishes he bought that. You could save up ~$300 for a high V tube-based Tubesteader brand Beekeeper or Lightkeeper pedal if you want a really dynamic D-style lead tone, although I prefer the sound of the Magnezium. Most of the D-style is sound is from the preamp section anyway.
