Hi Euge In addition to Marshall, are the amps from Dr. Z my favorites. I like their warm and powerful sound. A brand that deserves a lot more attention. thanks for that 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
That amp has just the right amount of dirt to sound great with the song you played. You're really getting some good gear to try out from Musix. Great content Euge. Have a great weekend 🤘 🤘
You can really hear the hair in this amp compared to the more aggressive stuff you've demo'd lately. For sure not high gain metal but for pure rock, hard rock, doom music, and could also be great for cutting solos in the studio - the sag in that rectifier could be cool. Overall a real unique amp. As soon as I heard the opening I thought, wow, this is different. Oh and loved the almost "Montrose" like song you came up with for this!
Dr. Z are great amps and they have a good variety of models for different styles. Yeah, this one does have a cool sound! You can tell right away that it has a tube rectifier. It sort of reminds of a Joe Perry-type tone and I think he uses a wall of amps to get his tone. Killer playing as always...Cheers!
Euge fantastic demo! Thanks for showing this vs the plexi. I have a Marshall Vintage modern and was wondering how the z nova compares and if I should sell the Marshall and get the z combo. Thanks man!
Hey Euge, have you ever played anything from Bogner? From your experience is the sound of the EVH EL34 the similar or close to something like a Bogner Ecstasy or Uberschall? Bogners are pricey and I was wondering if the EVH 34 is more of an affordable direction to that sound. Thanks
Yeah I used to own a Fish preamp and on Godsplague’s ’Revival’ album I used that into VHT power amp along with Ecstacy head. I’ve also used Überschall a few times but I always sound like myself no matter the amp ’cos they just amplify my sound / playing 😎. I can’t remember the differences any more but I always encourage people to try everything themselves ’cos we’re all different and amps amplify our sound / playing differently.
For what it’s worth, Euge did a killer demo of a Helios, which IMO is Bogner’s best amp, by FAR. It’s the only amp I like as much as my SLO (but very different sounding).
Always. But I use it pretty much only with cleans. But on albums / recordings I add a bit of chorus / pitch shifting to guitars & bass (when mixing) quite often to spread the sound a bit. Old trick but works like a charm 😎.
