EVH 5150 ICONIC - CRUNCH TONE (Runaround)

Channel 1 with Gain at (4), this is as low gain as it’s getting on this amp.

Wow great tone. Less is definitely more. Did a recording session a couple of years ago and found that I was really pulling back the distortion and crunch tones for the second take. Sounded way better.

Anyone else want to complain about this amp? Sounds killer man, great playing!

For the price, that amp sounds killer!

Great video! Definitely shines the Iconic in the right light! RIP EVH this amplifier marks a legendary guitarist and captures the tones of his legacy!

Excellent my man! Love seeing and hearing your reviews/explanayions (..probably because I love the content /playing)..tasty licks and tones, not just chug chug (..which has its place..)

[danc]

This is what I thought the EVH 5150iii would sound like.

Now that’s what I’m talking about! Excellent demo! It only took me 30 years of playing to realize that “less is more” when it comes to distortion. Lol!😂 5️⃣1️⃣5️⃣0️⃣ =\//-/=🙏🤘👍

I absolutely love this amp! I saw one a few months ago and guitar center played it and ordered one the next day!

[CoffeeDrinker]

[GeneSchmidt]

I think this amp sounds great! Great playing!

[baybae]

People complaining about this amp not sounding like a $2500 amp drive me nuts lol. It’s supposed to sound close — and it does.

Awesome vid!

[MKRISING]

Sounds pretty spot on to me.Stellar tones dude!Rock on 🤟🏻

[nateesteban]

That's a great sounding amp and good job playing!

[alexc]

Great playing!! For the money, it's a good sounding amp, yet it's about the player and in this case, the playing is tasty!!!

I like old school VH sounds . So does this one do that better than 5150 iii ? Which I have the 100 watt 6L6, 50 watt, and 50 watt EL 34 .

[rangerdoc]

Honestly don't need or want the red channel. Hope they make a lower watt version.

[samizdat]

I don't know why this amp gets so much hate. Sounds good to me.

[holeshot]

I'd be more interested in that Tone-Master in the background lol
