| so anyone got ahold of it yet???? i have played the 1x12 combo a couple times now waiting for my head to arrive, should be in a few days.
the clean is AMAZING they finally have a clean sound to be proud of. drop it to 10w and switch it to tweed..............very fenderesque if you will. best clean i have heard from boogie, very enjoyable.
channel 2 can get pretty grungy and has the mark 1 voice, switch it to fat and WOW, very nice and fat slightly overdriven tone.
channel 3 has the mark IIC+ which did not seemed like it belonged on channel 3 but quite usable none the less, mark IV, what can you say! and the extreme, which is HEAVY and more aggressive than the IV.
the eq layout and eq "presets" it has built in that you can turn on was quite interesting. the combo seemed it could get tubby in the low end though. not sure if it was the amp or the cab. for sure keeping the lows down on it.
you can pull the 2 outside 6l's and pop in el34's or all 4 el34's as well. not sure what i will do. will get a complete tube replacement for sure, just gotta decide. all my past boogies have improved greatly after tubes being replaced
but seemed like an awful lot of amp packed i a little package. seemed quite versatile. but using live, i think you could be doing a lot of knob twiddling between sets and such to get into the tones of this thing. should have been at least a 4 channel! but will be fun to sit side by side w my road king and a/b them. |
