Marshall Code 25 - "Many sounds in a small, lightweight box"
The title sums up why I couldn’t resist this new Marshall… in a 25-watt version. First of all, it doesn’t take much space up – and when you add up several other pieces of gear space definitely IS a factor… Then, I won’t compare it with the original ...

Taurus Stomp-Head 3.HG - "Amplifier in a stomp (pedal board) format offers plenty of features & flexibility"
SOUND: Any quality amp should be diverse, no matter its design. The Taurus SH3 (Stomp Head) HG (High-Gain) Amplifier is exceptional in its overall diversity and design, as well as in sound. Taurus may not be as well known as other amp companies (a...

Fender Vibro Champ "Blackface" [1964-1967] - "Versatile. Surprisingly loud when overdriven."
I got this amp in an equipment trade. Since it's a small amp, I expected to use it primarily for practice. It's about 14″ x 17″ x 7 1/2″. Six watts, eight inch speaker. Two inputs. Simple controls: Volume, Treble, Bass. There is vibrato which I ...

Mesa Boogie Mark Five Head - "Simply the best"
There is nothing I can say to render the true beauty, excellence, sweetness, power, subtlety, tonal richness, punch and everything else of this amp. First impression: it is built like a tank, has as much knobs as a Boieng 777 (actually, it has proba...

Laney LA35C - "Cheap and efficient"
I bought it to complement a cheap rig for a few gigs as a guitar/voice duet. I’ve used it with a Cort AF510E and had the opportunity to hear a martin junior and a seagull played on it during gigs where we shared gears. That’s an honest amp which c...

Vox MV50 AC - "Great for me !!"
For which specific applications or uses have you chosen this product? Installed on my pedalboard, I use it only on headphone so far as I recently moved to a flat but I consider buying a good cab soon to play at home at low to moderate volume. H...

Mooer 009 Blacknight - "Mooer micro preamp 009 -ENGL Blackmore review"
The Mooer micro preamp 009 -ENGL Blackmore is a great preamp! The cleans are fuller than most and the Hi Gain channel is articulate and bright. I compaired it to my AMT Elect E-1 (ENGL Fireball -JFET preamp) and found it to be very dynamic. Awsome va...

Pignose G40V - "Better than a Bassman !"
In 2007 I bought mine new/old stock (in UK) as my then also new Fender Bassman had to go back under warranty, In the cross-over between having them side by side, the Pig gave more of what I had hoped to get from the Bassman! Consequently I moved on t...

Vox AV30 - "Just great!"
I’ve had it for 4 days, of course an update will follow if need be. This is an all-analog amp, with a 12ax7 preamp tube and a 12ax7 power tube. As the original output must be around 1 watt, its re-amplified with a solid state processor for a final 3...
