I didn’t, I put myself on the list for the Monster Hunter Fender but I think I will cancel it because it looks like a brown piece of shit in the pictures I’ve seen

That does look odd. Like a bad Christmas sweater that someone was wearing when a badger attacked them.

Ain’t that the truth. I have 9 amps that I could probably boil down to 8…maybe.

@Ola Englund putting his money where his mouth is and buying the demo amp says a lot I think.

Not a reach when there’s so much nostalgia attached to the purchase…but I don’t think I’d be as excited to buy another Ross, solid state combo (my first amp in ‘84/‘85) as I would a chrome chassis recto 😂

If this Recto RI is Rev F-ish with those funky mids, it may also win the live mix battle.

I was trying to not be overly negative with the term funky.

I should have said wooly. Like the bush is too thick.

I have many Rectos and only one has had this and I fight it.

Choosing hotter tubes helps.

Ah shit yeah I love my tremoverb… thanks for reminding me.

Tone comparison wise, I mean it’s tough to compare clips vs clips, that tremoverb video is scooped as hell by the microphone mix. I like the sound of both though

I know your more recent videos are much better when it comes to production but there is something raw and aggressive that I particularly like about these old videos. Might be the simple m160 / sm 58 mic thru the 2x12 ! Yeah I've had two Tremoverbs which I love and several early rectos like a 1992 rev D serial 24Χ that I was really fond of! Glad to hear you like the new one and congrats. Your clips are awesome

It's probable they're loading these with STR-445 RED which will be cold AF. Might be cold enough that (with careful testing) EL34 mode (hotter bias) could work.

It might be cause I just slapped the microphone somewhere, I got tired of people saying I sounded the same so I just always used different mic placements. At the end of the day I just can’t escape it 😂

meh, I wouldn't apologize for sounding like Ola through anything you use. Your vids are always great man, and give a really good idea of the gear IMO. You are one of the channels I look to first if I'm interested in something. Been a long time subscriber. :cheers:
