The firmware update makes the combo deluxe 65 crazy good. Would recommend for sure.

My favorite duo on YouTube, Kris and Guilluame, TC does make some affordable gear, I appreciate that. You guys did a great job showcasing these pedals. Thank you both.

Selling points of Combo Deluxe -
#1 - The Tone
#2 - The Look
and most importantly #3 - G hitting those initial notes of his signature tune!

[michaelloebenstein]

Great Demo, thank you. Question: can you use the two outputs (to amp, DI with cab sim) simultaneously? I'm thinking of using this live with a low watt combo on stage, with the cab sim signal going to FOH and the out (without cab sim) into the amp for a bit of on-stage monitoring. Many thanks!

Combo deluxe is perfect for me as a bassplayer who sometimes plays guitar in the studio when composing music.

[quiquepriore]

I think that plug in front of the amp no make sense because in that way are 2 preamps, maybe in the fx loop with the power amp section only. Any way, good vid, for me dlx has better recreation than the other two

[harriheinsoo]

this is the demo I was waiting for! very well done, thank you Thomann!

[Sofika]

I wish the Jims 45 had a reverb ! the combo deluxe sound way better in this video than in others video, you make me want to try it :-)

[CaneyBoniface]

I'm a bassplayer. I wish TC electronic made an upgrade their TC SpectraDrive with CabSim.

Tricky question: small device to practice guitar and bass. With speaker or to use with headphones. Some video about? :)

[mgr.petrvinchavlicek]

Nice video gentemen. I just ordered Delux 65 from your shop. :) Thanks.

[chemajimenez]

Nice demo, guys!. The dc 30 has a Celestion Alnico Blue ir. The other two has g12m creamback as you said.

[horschy]

Combo deluxe did the thing for me!
And someone practiced the godfather theme since the last video 😉

[sergiovgbrandao]

You may feel good about yourselves! Great demo! 🙏

Can you run the DI out and from the regular out at the same time? Like for a stage monitoring option?

[laurentmeiller]

it's an intersting concept but still sounds with high frequencies dominance (little metallic) if plugged online...

what would be interesting is to plug a 65" deluxe in a tube power amp (mooer ?) to see if it turns "round, and warm", the same for the other pedals

that would be not a revolution, but a practical solution for moderate budgets...

state preamp + pedals (reverb 2 + delay) + tube power amp + cabinet ?

the debate is open !

[andrus]

I'd love to try the 45 with fuzz. If it accepts fuzzes the way the real tube amp does, it could replace my current DI amp consisting of Bogner Blue and Two Notes CAB M+, and at 1/3 of the price.

[peterknicked]

It is so boring that every manufacturer just makes another Fender, AC and JTM. There are other amps, better amps and so on.

[MartinMartin-yito]

Why is the guitar sound bouncing from left to right? Are you guys using delay in post?

[onbedoeldekut]

I'm still waiting to see the new NUX Trident, when's it dropping?
