    Phil, since your channel started, I have been able to learn how to set up and maintain my guitars.
    This week I actually got paid to crown and polish his frets and give him what I call the McKnight special set up.
    Just wanted to say thank you for teaching me how to do my own work.
    Perhaps set ups and preventative maintenance can be a side gig for me now.
    Thanks again for sharing your knowledge.

    that amp sound amazing! I purchased a combo version of the Overdrive Reverb a month ago...your video demo of that amp is what drove me to actually get it....when I first started communicating with Taylor (Amplified Nation owner) he told me the amp was like a musical instrument in itself. there is so much character to the tones out of this amp. amazing amps they are building! makes you want to play and play and play......

    That sounds spectacular. Didn't catch what the price is, but amps today are so refined that it's making playing so inspiring. Absolutely spectacular. And, it's a smaller profile head too. That clean is SOOOOO warm. This amp really shined when you used that Strat. It got muddy the more gain you used. I think I preferred the less gain setting. It was more articulate. Great demo!

    • @lukebarkermusic
      @lukebarkermusic Рік тому

      Not many demos of the newer Magnatones online but Andertons have a nice thorough video and the full fat Twlighter Stereo must be the nicest clean amp sound I've ever heard. Just absolutely beautiful and that stereo vibrato sounds so cool. When I can comfortably afford one I'm definitely going for it. I wouldn't want to get one of their mono versions as they are stil very expensive but lack that stereo which is like their signature sound. Would be like getting a Ferrari with a 4 cylinder engine - still beautiful and expensive, but you'd be wishing everyday you'd paid that little bit more for the classic V8.
      Would be interesting to see how those Classic series Magnatones sound with modern, aggressive distortion pedals or as a poweramp for a Quad Cortex or similar. I love my high gain metal tones but of course the Magnatones aren't designed for that. But they do appear to be incredibly clean pedal platforms with a load of headroom so I'm sure they would handle any pedal or digital modeller nicely - just be interesting to hear if they actually make pedals/modellers sound better due to the tube warmth or if they would be clean enough to add no colour at all unless you wanted some. Although I suppose the ideal solution for the guitarist who appreciates both beautiful cleans and modern Djent grinds would be to have both a Magnatone and a high gain firebreather such as an Engl or Mesa...and an appropriately large wallet too, which currently rules me out of that club.

I have a Crate Stealth 50 from the 90’s that was designed by Lee Jackson. It has this same type of sound. I know the designs are different enough that it makes me really want it.

    I had an Egnater Renegade Combo with four 10" speakers in it...probably my favorite switchable tube amp I ever owned...(usually I have guitar sell regret, but I think that is the only amp selling regret I have)...it has 2 power sections in it: one section was EL34 loaded, and the other section was loaded with no 6L6's...and it had this blend knob, to where it could be cranked full on a 6L6's, full on EL34's, or a blend ratio of both...I preferred the tone quality of EL34s (as you said in this video was your choice of power tubes for this amp) in most tone chasing situations. Thanks for the video, Phillip, hope you and yours are doing great.

    Here in Norway it will be 5 K with shipping and taxes , but I dont care what some people say . Amps on that level are worth every penny . The craftmanship on that level you can't compere to massproduced Marshalls and Fender. Its a love of sound and hard labor so the price is fair.
