Rivera Clubster 25

As has already been said!
25W all-tube 2-channel
HP 10 "

Effects loop, and that's why my opinion on AF: I put a nasty note because of this:
Plug, not even a jack in the effects loop, and you lose a lot in clarity and punch, which is really a great way to rivera ...
I also regret the fact does not to cause distortion of the boost with the foot switch.

UTILIZATION

Very convenient as very small. It sounds very low volume so handy for clubs etc ...
The knobs of EQUAL are very effective
Connected to a panel 2HP 12 "is even better: bcp gives more low attendance

SOUNDS

The clean sound is really beautiful, precise without being cold, dynamic.
The distortion is quite modern, with a grain of hell ... Rivera is the what!
The HP 10 "is a very nice job, but it's still the 10 ...

OVERALL OPINION

I bought this amp to play club. Everything was fine until I plugged in a single pedal in the effects loop ... No matter what you put into it, nothing that to connect a jack makes you lose a lot ... it is very sad for Rivera to € 820.

That said, a little amp that sounds like that and more at low volume, no y 'tons!

What has not said t: HP Rivera Vintage Gold Eminence.Pieds made by good quality rubber to absorb vibrations.Poids 13.6 Kg.Couleur black but available in other versions.Construction robust and good qualit.Lampes: 2 12AX7wa Sovtek 6V6 GT and 2 Electro-Harmonix.

UTILIZATION

Simple servir.Trs it versatile, it has several amps un.Le English manual (one sheet of cardboard) to give the rglages for DIFFERENT types of music.

SOUNDS

So I insist polyvalent.Son clear kind Fender at its best. Normal Paul Rivera worked for the brand and several amps Designed with Twin Reverb II. Distorted sounds excellent, ranging from a blues to metal! This amp sounds as good as Modern Vintage!
The sound is out of this world! What quality! Heat, dynamic prsence, personality dfinition.Toutes guitars are good thanks his eyes. The distortion of the channel tends to lead fuzz sounds.
I can tell myself it's the best amp I've had! And in addition he spits!
No problem with the effects loop if the effects are powerful, but ... having pedals with a simple test I realized Technical Info effectively lost the clarity and dynamism. The HP gives good bass for a 10 '.
ADDITION OF 28/08/11:
ATTENTION loss of momentum with the effects loop does not come from the amp but some pedals. Personal one PDAL I ask myself that problem: the EHX Small Stone so I put it in faade.

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for several months with frnsie! Transporter.Vous can easily add one or more speakers, including 12 ', you increase the power and scope. So you can play at home and in a large enough room concert.J have had a fortnight before the Amp-l. The report is good quality-price: 820.00 euros with pdalier channel / rverbe and cord around 7 m.J 've found that the price can go up like 1200 euros.Ce amp takes care life!

Everyone knows: all-tube combo with 2 12AX7 preamp and 2 in 6V6GT in amplifier. Two independent channels with their own EQ. Jensen HP 10 inches. Complete connections: loop, HPs ... Power: 25 watts (Rivera!)

UTILIZATION

The use could not be simpler: one branch and it sounds! The manual supplied comes down also to a sheet of yellow with some controls that's it! But who cares, because regardless of the settings, you come to get sound.

SOUNDS

So here we reach the nirvana of clean sounds in the style of the great era Fender: Clarity, definition, dynamic incredible power are the words that summarize the quality of the clean channel, really very very good. Stratocaster with a good (like mine!) Is the absolute happiness in blues. I have not tried with Tubescreamer more but I think it must be something. When the lead channel, it is close to a good Marshall tube and allow to refine the settings perfect saturation. I am even surprised at the quality of the lead. Good is not correct anyway, so fans of metal, go your way. Finally, the HP 10 'is doing very honorably, it is perfect for this little amp, and it already pummeled hard you'll see!

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 2 months and frankly I do not regret my purchase (690 euros opportunity!). This amp is small, portable, sturdy, well built and finished properly. And sound, Lol that's the sound lights that I can not do without me who loves the blues!
