Well, it's finally time to say goodbye to the Blue Angel (After 15 years!) The new amp is seriously Amazing - Hopefully I get as many years out of this as I did that :) Tones start at 9:20 Enjoy! Amp: imp.i114863.net/Na1gV

@donald-parker 4 года назад

I've been using a H&K Tubemeister 18 for a year now . It does not have onboard effects or preset storage but it has the built in DI Redbox and power soak features. I love it. Clean tones and lead tones are superb. I tend to play with as low an onstage volume as possible and use my amp,speaker as my monitor, and leave it to the house PA to mix my DI sound. I recently blew one of the EL 84 power tubes in rehearsal before a big show. This gave me a huge appreciation for their TSC circuitry that diagnoses faulty tubes and prevents more serious problems. The amp was fine, and replacing the tube (with the invaluable help of RU-vid) was a 15 minute job. Big fan of H&K!

@zacharykim295 4 года назад

Wow, it's so versatile! The inclusion of the cabinet simulation and the noise gate really stands out!

@jackstrap82 4 года назад

So happy for you man! I just bought the Tubemeister 18 on black friday, tried it at Long & McQuade and just loved the sound. The power soak was a must in my small appartment. I had read nothing but good reviews about their whole lineup. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. Was thinking of going for the Traynor DHX212 cab with it even though the 212 from H&K I was playing through was also quite enjoyable.

@ny7294 4 года назад

@bainer1701 4 года назад

More than impressed!. Never ceases to amaze me how modern amps and general music equipment has progressed in such a short space of time. So much easier to be a musician these days. Kinda makes you want to turn back the clock and learn all over again with the gear available now. Imagine how good we'd be. I envy any new starter now. No need for all the difficulties we had with the crap stuff we had to endure as kids trying to learn with poor quality guitars and over priced rubbish amps.

I have yet to see/hear a demo of what this amp sounds like with the lower wattage settings. Since so many of us practice in our bedroom or livingroom, I am especially interested in this feature.

@jonevans870 4 года назад

It sounds the same. The amp is remarkably consistent, at least with distorted sounds, across volume and wattage sittings. It does break up earlier on clean sounds at lower wattages, as you would expect.

@arthritisankle 3 года назад

He says that he usually plays it on the 20W setting so maybe that’s what he’s using in the demo?

@musiccer7446 3 года назад

At 20 watts the sound is the same because simply 2 tubes of four are kept off. At 10 watts the power soak is used and so for the rest, however the sound quality doesn’t decrease at all. I tried it

@acousticontherocks8107 Год назад

I literally have mine set at 1W when I practice and it's amazing, As another person stated, "remarkably consistent". You don't need a huge amount of power to get great tone with this one

Nice grab! I had the original grandmeister 36. I *wish* I liked the sound of it (personal taste) because I absolutely loved everything else about the amp. It came out 6 years ago and other tube amp companies (e.g. Revv G20) are only just now starting to even come close to the feature set of the grandmeister.

@DreidMusicalX 4 года назад

@markrichardson239 Год назад

Ha. You are right. It's not a modeling amp. I just got one the other day. It is EVERYTHING a modeling amp ever wanted to be!!!! And, I am in Heaven. I have owned Fender Super Twin, Quad, Champ ,Mesa Boogie triple rectifier, mini rectifier, Transatlantic 40, Atomic 50 Marshall and more...

@hkguitar1984 4 года назад

Great amp and congrats Sir. Myself, I tend to keep it simple. This philosophy also requires myself to have many different amplifiers. The only issue I see with amplifiers like these (very complicated) is that they can't possibly hold up as well as a simple PTP amp. I purchased a brand new Fender Twin Reverb back in 1976. All these years later I am still using that amplifier. Dropped, Rain/Snow, Years of abuse and with normal maintenance she is actually sounding better than the day I brought her home from the store. We are all different and have different needs, so this is indeed very cool, again congrats Sir. Myself, I'll keep it simple.

@kentjackson3830 2 года назад

Hey Darrell this makes two amps you've influenced me to buy. I'm still enjoying the Stage Right SB20 plugged into their 2X12 ( 2 V30's }. I remember watching this video a year or so ago and thinking I'd really like to have one of those until I saw the price was a bit out of my range. Well I just found and purchased a used Grandmeister 36 with MIDI footswitch for less than half what they sell for new. Putting my trust in Andertons Music that will deliver second hand amp in good working order. Can't wait for it to arrive all the way from the UK. Really appreciate all yourr informative videos.Hoping to see more of the Nerdy technical stuff deep dive stuff in the future... Thanks again!

@chrisdrake447 4 года назад

I followed an almost identical path, though I literally have none of your ability. Bought a used Blue Angel combo 15 years ago - loved the sound but could never wind it up. Bought a Weber attenuator which helped, but what did it for me was the sheer weight of the Mesa. Back breaking. Started looking around for a more adaptable amp and finally bought a H&K Tubemeister 36 combo. What a change. Core tone wasn’t quite there but when you off-set that against the benefits, I’m a happier bunny. Looking forward to hearing how your journey with H&K develops. (PS: Blue Angel is now for sale on Reverb ... UK only, I’m afraid!).

@mikemccourt6225 4 года назад

I got one a while back - great recording and cover band amp. Takes pedals well. You have to become a knob turner, but, you can find tons of great tones with this amp. The big foot switch is a must.

@musicfreak3536 4 года назад

Love the Hughes and Kettner brand! I love my Tubemeister 5 and have my eye on their Tubemeister 20.

@qualityisrare 4 года назад

I used to own a Hughes and Kettner, but no matter how much dirt I piled on, it never truly broke up in mid frequencies. It sizzled and it thumped, but when trying to make it roar and growl it sounded a bit forced. Well that was my experience, however I truly hope you find your new H&K satisfying. And; I hope you know your playing is really why I watch what you present. Well your playing is great, but even better is your attitude. P.S. : Very simple amps can be great too. The Marshall JTM1C loaded with a Jenson P10Q is my favorite amp that I've ever played. That's why it is now my one and only amp.

This video makes me remember when I bought my H&K 100W some twentyfive years ago. At every gig I had to fight with sound guys to have it connected through the back instead of using a mic: it just sounded better most of the time! Great amps up to the TriAmp. And I still have it.

@Ceruleannn 3 года назад

I hear ya! I'm a true gear nerd. I currently own 14 guitars, bought and sold another 15 or so in the past 20 years, owned almost 10 bass amps, a bunch of pedals... But when I bought my Triamp in 2006, I never looked back. It's still right next to me as I'm typing this, I never thought of replacing it, always used it at home, at rehearsals, gigs, recordings,... I did order an H&K Tubemaster 40 Deluxe yesterday, since I'd like to leave the Triamp in the rehearsal room. The Tubemaster and Grandmaster seem like the perfect home(recording) amps. Especially since I heard that the Tubemaster's preamp section is based on the Triamp.
