« Very good amp but ... »
Published on 03/29/11 at 23:35Head tube amp.
50 watts.
One floor of reverb and more from the head Single Rectifier Solo Head 50.
Comes with protective cover for the head, a footswitch (Channel 1 / 2, reverb, solo) and his little protective cover and power cable.
For all that is technical, connectivity, control, everything is detailed in the previous opinions.
UTILIZATION
Here's the important point that I want to dwell.
At the first use with the footswitch connected to the channel change, from the clean channel to channel saturation, I notice a little latency (or delay) before the sound reaches the saturated channel. In fact, it occurs exactly a nice "fade in" somehow melted or ascending volume.
Same problem to return the canal saturated clean channel!
Problem was I saying? Well yes, for me anyway, big problem!
So as I said is a "very nice" fade in, yes, but not very practical to use as I do, ie to have the sound of my clean channel is saturated or, at the precise moment I press my switch or not, what standard?
So I try everything:
- Press harder on the footswitch
- Support faster and faster withdraw my foot
- Press gently in the hand ...
- Try other footswitch, in Jack, not pins as that provided by Mesa Boogie.
... And there is no solution, still the same problem.
I'll see on the forums and there ... Yes indeed it is a problem encountered by other users of this head ... disappointment ...
Head off again, after discussion with the customer service telephone company ...... distribution which shall remain nameless, everyone knows. For them, it's how Mesa expertise, so there is no "PLOP" who get along when you press the footswitch to change channels.
Upon receipt of the head for them there is no problem ... they are testing me by phone, but ... it's hard to realize, as you can imagine. Except that it still offers me to remove a component that is causing this delay time ... uh ... yes then there is something good then? ... It's the world to to ...
Back of my head yesterday ... More problem of delay time ... and no "PLOP" even at high volume.
I hope this review will allow the user to always have this problem can be remedied quickly!
And then it would be essential that the distributor and the brand Mesa make an effort to communicate on this kind of detail that might interest the prospective buyer!
SOUNDS
For sound, nothing to say, I find it very effective, with respect for the original sound of your guitar, whatever your guitar.
I try on Gibson, Fender, Gretsch, Vigier, Godin, Yamaha ... Everything sounds. EQ settings are very sharp, very interesting to sculpt the sound as we want to hear.
I use a cabinet with 2x12 "Mesa Boogie from home.
OVERALL OPINION
I will use now provided live! I come to you for more details!
