About to do my 1st paid gig!!!! Which amp made it there????

Post by Les Paul Lover » Sun Jun 18, 2017 1:07 pm

So, which would you have picked and why?

I have the AD15, the Rocker 30, and the Rockerverb 50.....

It's a local pub all day festival. Really looking forward it, we'll play a few covers ranging from Neil young to pixies, and a few originals.

Indoors......


But I chose the RV50!!!

The sound man set us up pretty loud!!!!
Even with a bit of attenuation, you could hear from the end of the street!!!!

I had my clean channel almost cranked, it was lovely - I could use it like I use my AD15, play softly, it's clean, dig in its dirty, and then the dirty channel was there for the rest!!!!!

After sound check, I was so pleased with my tone, I took a pic of the settings. Even with the attenuator, that was LOUD. And ace!!!!!!

I know, I couldn't believe he set it that loud!!!! Freaking unbelievable!!!!
I had my jetcity attenuator shaving some of the volume off, but I'm reliable informed we could be heard loud and clear from the end of the street, over 100m away..... and we were playing indoors!!!! :shock:

It sounded great though.
Being able to use the clean channel for both clean and light crunch with playing dynamics essentially made it a 3 channel amp. I could rely on the dirty channel for heavy dirt/ leads.

Was great!!!! :mrgreen:
