All user reviews of 5/5 for the Egnater Rebel 30-112

See previous reviews for the main features

Please note: there is a line XLR output accompanied by the possibility of switching to mute the amp - this also works when output amp and HP are based.

UTILIZATION

Simple setup:

Settings for channel 1 (clear): volume, treble, bass, a switch "tight" (kind of low-cut), a switch "bright" (kind of "presence") and rear combo, next connections: reverb channel 1 (1 potentiometer "mix", no other reverb settings)

Settings for channel 2 (saturated): volume, treble, mid, bass, gain, switch "tight" (kind of low-cut), a switch "bright" (kind of "presence") and the rear combo, next connections: reverb channel 2 (1 potentiometer "mix", no other reverb settings)

For keg channel: 1 potentiometer "power" tube from 1W to full power (so 2 ​​knobs in all). At moderate volume, the more pots affect the rendering of the sound volume of 1W, the color is different and has a bit more saturation.

A knob that allows you to gradually move lamps 6V6 (the "U.S.") to EL84 (the "English")

The rear connections for a loop ("send / return")

A pedal with two switches to activate / deactivate the reverb and move from one channel to another.

The manual is clear and sufficient. Anyway, with an amp like this, no need for an extensive manual ... However, it has an interesting explanation for why that is low volume does not feel that much difference between the control (using the pots for chanque channel) 1W to full power tubes and some acoustic details for beginners .

The sound is fa-bu-lous! Whether on the clean channel or the overdrive channel, it sounds! One branch, are heated, and exploring the possibilities of the two channels, one is forced to admit that it sounds beautifully with almost all settings and guitars!

SOUNDS

In jazz, a true wonder: on the clean channel, a purity of sound ascended to heaven. All the nuances of the game stand beautifully. You can push the volume and it remains clear. I imagine with a Strat and highly crystalline sounds ...

The sound is very well defined: the treble is not screaming but may be present (like twin reverb), bass do not create noise interference with the rest of the spectrum. Whatever guitars connected (and this is also true for the other channel) their personalities are respected. It makes the most of all types of microphones (Gibson 57, Fender single coil, P90 ...). Whatever the guitar of my collection that I branch, my friends make me out "Wow, what a sound, this guitar!"

In channel 2 (saturated), a discrete saturation we go to a nice distortion (with the Les Paul from the 12 o'clock position, it starts to "avoiner hard!"). With any of my guitars, it will drool ... With my Vox SDC 55 split over humbucker, while the gain in depth, it is not very far from saturated and compressed sounds way Santana ...

On the clean channel, I put in a series Okko Diablo +. Wow! which sounds! for very bluesy and warm sounds, thrills guaranteed! This pedal also combines very well saturated channel.

To "my" music: jazz, jazz-rock, blues and a little rock (like british 70's) the Rebel fills me with pleasure. And I admit it's a little "drool" other musicians.

In the loop, I connect my Mustang Floor, mainly to add the echo, tremolo or chorus. This amp sounds so good naturally he cut me my desires to use simulation models of Floor!

Note that I experimented with Boss pedals (overdrive, chorus, delay) and they behave very well with the Rebel.

No sound will displease me! But ... I am one of those who do not spend hours adjusting their amp when I want a "different" sound, I prefer to change guitar and amp so rather than wait restores the subtleties of the instrument. And for that we can trust in this Egnater, despite this, this combo has a real personality: listen to the sounds clear and you hear what you hear!

The idea of ​​a possible gradual shift from one lamp type to another (of the "English" in the "American" for short) is gen-nia it! Whatever the choice of the type of lamps (or mixing), this little amp has a great attack, and it restores the nuances of the game perfectly ...

The reverb is digital. She has absolutely no record of a kind Spring. But it is very natural and even a mix of large mix, it is very nice. I do not deny.

It is a silent amp: low background noise and / or breath - except of course when you push the gain background on channel 2, but that is normal!

This "small" is a sin hell: 30W or 22W (depending on the choice of lamps) to shut his mouth the most excited drummer! I recently used on outdoor stage in front of 200 people, the sound (powerful) "sent" not bad, I was a little mix up in the sound output through the line, had my amp volume at 9am ( running from about 7am to 17h) and a musico who listened to me in the audience pointed out that the amp going live as well as in the sound! By the way: note that the line output that simulates a speaker is excellent, it does not quite sound the HP, but the sound is very realistic.

Small detail (but nice): Rebel comes with a well padded cover.

OVERALL OPINION

I've had 3 months.

I was looking for an amp that can give good clear sound with personality without depriving me of the opportunity to get good distortion.

I made two very bad experiences with two Fender Supersonic 22W combo that I made back because of major flaws (each time a different amp to another): microphonics, internal feedback effect with reverb, monstrous "cluck" in passing from one channel to another, with the feedback loop, huge background noise ...

After I made SuperSonic resume, I decided to turn to the Egnater, which seemed close enough to the "spirit" of the SuperSonic. And I do not regret it: an excellent report poids-encombrement/volume sound (the amp is fairly large, it fits easily into a small car trunk), sounds to die for a good finish (j ' like aesthetics! Egnater logo and even cream colored plastic attached to the canvas like baffle me ... This combo has the look "vintage"), it seems tough ... Anyway, the Egnater Rebel, for me it's only happiness.

The only thing I regret (but I nitpick, there!) Is that it is not equipped (as are, for example, some Laney) a device outside cash fund to tilt when is placed on the ground. But views the enormous qualities of this amp is easily bypasses!

I would do without a doubt the same choice. Ever since I (and I use extensively), I do not want another amp!

UTILIZATION

Pretty simple and straightforward, it might need a quick readthrough of the manual to really get how it works though, but past some "unfamiliar" knobs its pretty east to use and you can pretty much plug and play if you don't know how to use it even.

SOUNDS

I really enjoyed this amp, Played it with a PRS Single Cut. really loved how it sounded, a tad on the dark side the Overdrive was GREAT very versatile and super easy to dial in. You could get anything from old clapton (very easy to get) all the way up to metallica levels of gain if you so wanted and it did it all WELL. maybe not amazing but definitely very well, I'd recommend it over the Tiny Terror personally, as its more of a gigging amp

The cleans are not anything amazing, but on the 6L6 side it does some passable american tones with a strat and I i really did like the slightly dirty tones on that side also

As I said I really enjoyed playing this amp it was actually fun to play. and I highly suggest playing it if you get the chance.

OVERALL OPINION

Overall I say if you want a small gigging amp do it, its super versatile and easy to use. AND it sounds GREAT I highly recommend it. Be sure to try it out first though!

UTILIZATION

Setup is very easy to use. The knobs are ultra accurate.
It's lighter, it rings and we rediscover his guitars!
I also have an ENGL Screamer is not the most rotten as amp, but you enter another world, can we call the high end, I do not know, but the difference is impressive!
Just a quick word on the knobs of varying wattage. These are by no means of limiting power (output volume), but rather a change in power lamps (which means that from a certain volume). It will play on the smoothness of sound.
As for the variation knob lamps, that is happiness!

SOUNDS

That's where it gets a big slap.
A beautiful clean, crystalline Fenderien when you put the volume pot lights to the 6V6, more English when we go to the EL84. For my part, I'm 3 / 4 6V6, 1 / 4 EL84 ... My Start has almost become an electro-acoustic sound is so defined.

The drive channel is a delight. In my opinion, this amp is not for the sounds "metaloides", but cons, what crunch, what overdrive! And particularly this channel accepts a small TS to boost further the solo. With a beautiful sustain!
We must learn to settle his pedals too, because this amp is demanding a ProCo Rat eg will become very acidic if not properly adjusted. on the other hand, there it is almost noon everywhere is spotless.
And collects the Rat in the drive channel! It is splendid and stunning, and not a breath! What sound!

OVERALL OPINION

I've had it three days, I look forward to a little concert ... But in the meantime, all my guitars are past (Start U.S., TV, U.S. LP, Italia ...) all met up in their sound types.
I tried many amps, almost all brands. This one is almost inessayable in a shop in France, I did come a little blind (to the deaf uh!), Though heard a lot on Youtube or some English sites to resell stuff.
I think it's not far from my latest acquisition ... amp Thank you again Mr. Bruce!
