    Very good ... for some styles

    Mesa Boogie V-TwinPublished on 04/29/12 at 01:55

    this is a pedal tube guitar preamp.
    It has two channels: bypass, clear, overdrive / solo (depending on the position of dedicated switch).
    In terms of connectivity, there is one input and three output: guitar amp, power amp and headphones.
    There are also two control inputs for bypass and channel choice.

    In terms of settings, this is a classic preamp, complete and effective (gain, bass, mid, treble, presence, output level).

    Finally, there is a setting under the pedal to assay the channel gain clear.

    The only real fault is the switch for the overdrive switch (blue) to solo when you're on the second channel.
    It is impossible to activate it with the feet, which is a shame for a …

    It is impossible to activate it with the feet, which is a shame for a pedal.
    Otherwise, there is no effects loop, which can be annoying.

    UTILIZATION

    Configuration is easy for one who has ever used a guitar amp.

    SOUNDS

    It is suitable for many styles of music, including his drive for super sensitive and warm. The distortion (single player) is very good.

    For metalheads against my friends (like Korn) are not getting enough sound right to their liking. A bit too fat to really modern, er metal box ;).

    In fact, I tried amps mes (affordable) at the time and I loved their sound saturated but I preferred them for a fender clean sound. So, by dint of saving I made the configuration: V-Twin Nighthawk + + TwinReverb (which only have two clear channels).

    Well duh, it gives a pretty vintage style but it still kills! Anyway, for rock, blues, reggea / dub, jazz ... AC does.
    A priori, I think on newer amps we must go further

    OVERALL OPINION

    Its very good, it's a bit expensive and I do not know if today we find the best value for money. The pedal is sturdy. I do it again this choice because even if its not doing all it makes me go.

    Thank you for your help.

    Regarding the equipment, I bought the preamp there is a long time now, it was good for the blues disto ... I admit that its use is quite complex when you do not play often electric, like me!

    The clean sound is amazing, even for blues or when deciding to send strong, that answers directly :-)

    I play with a guitar equipped with micro seymour lespaul with several possible adjustment (splits, etc.)..

    For blues sounds, it's great!

    UTILIZATION

    I bought OCCAZ without a manual, it sounds simple and actually not as many, it is a little safe one bad code and it does not open. it is difficult to settle when the equalizer is not in the extreme, this may be kidding myself but I put that time has aprivoiser.

    Position blues however Ploil naziar a grain, it looks like they forgot to put the lamp, but it remains correct, however the position of sending solo well, harmonic knock, has endless sustain , a little too low to my taste ... degeu domage

    OVERALL OPINION

    It's been a year disaine I use, I am a very practical tool because I have a twin reverb (only one channel ... sniff) So here I am with two clear sound quality at a correct a distortion overdrive nickel.elle is polyvalente.j him correctly sour tried before many model, vox bulldog, ibanez tube king, boss blues driver, the marshall distortion lamp! All I can say is that the v twin is more expensive but better! I do not think it sounds great mesa, I find it rather Hibrida marshall fender, but the solo sounds mesa.avec position 13 years of experience I would say I would do it again because this choice has the 'era there was no competitor, now it should look as it is comem dear, I estimated 20/30% cher.Il too need this out of my head that it will turn its amps in fighter aircraft is racy but it does not magic, it will not turn a Marshal Valvestate triple rectifier.Je still think it's a try after noon complete torture to give this avis.Sans ask whether or not lamps are solicited to 100%! The lamp is like the bio you would buy anything as long as it's written dessus.un tube amp ... yes ... a pedal bof ... why not a strap or a plectrum lamp??
    FYI I note the strict perfect is not my max is 9
