I tried one of these out on a whim at Sweetwater when they first came out and was blown away. It’s become one of my all time favorite solid state amps!

I love Josh :3 He’s the reason why my pedalboard is all EHX pedals.

[brucegrimes]

I bought one as a pedal platform, works perfectly for that. The clean tone is great and it is plenty loud, even for outdoor gigs!

I bought one because of that video. Now I'm pretty obsessed with solid state amps. The way they distort is just so weird haha. I'm really into it.

[mannishboy]

You just keep bringing us all the cool noisemakers, Mike. We'll keep buying them!

[CTSmerv]

thank you for this. I was wanting a good sound sample of the 12VR8 speaker that is featured in the Dirt Road, as it is very affordable. from this demonstration, I can hear that the EHX speaker sounds amazing. thank you!

[rockerz]

Sounds great...and ya know Josh, when you put your mind to it, you can really do it! Nice phrasing.

What kind of Les Paul is that? It has body and fingerboard binding like a standard or classic, but has a silkscreen Gibson logo like a studio or junior. Not a Studio Standard because those had dot inlays and didnt come in gold.

What do you expect? He says he loves everything.

I’ve been interested in this amp for quite a while. I’m just worried that it’s way too loud for home use. As it’s transistor, isn’t it possible to create it in lower wattage or even pedal format? (Though if there are plans for a lower wattage version, please keep the 12” speaker, so many companies get that wrong).

[AintS]

Well, it's an interesting sounding amp; however, there's a component crunch for integrated circuits and I don't see many bring sold before they feel the burn.
This only makes me go into handwired tube amps that much more. You swap them, rarely bias them, and technicians used to drop the amp to show you did it right!

[jimashtube]

It looks just like the old !like Matthews Freedom Amp my guitar teacher loaned me back in 1968.lol
Sounds better though

[bonsummers]

Let's hear some Boy/October/NewYearsDay era U2 on that.

[MyJB]

How would the new amp sound by itself (no external pedals at all) for Jazz guitar ? What is its weight?

[DSilvergun]

Josh what is your favorite single coil sized humbucker?

[daniellarson]

Would Coke ever have a Pepsi guy saying their new product was good? This ad won't sell me a new amp, but it should sell a goodly number. (I have the 15 watt Howitzer - don't need another amp.)

[Frijolero]

Does anyone know the JHS episode this is from?
