    It is incredible how much we can learn about amps and effects from Pete - besides being amused by his killer playing! I'm not only a happy PT15IR owner after being so much inspired by his playing, but also comprehend much more about pre's, power's, cabinets and pedals simply by watching and absorbing his great weekly content. BTW, the Hombre sounds amazing too! Congrats & thanks so much for all you do, Pete. You're an amazing guitarist, teacher and an absolure class act!
    (looking forward to best ways to pull off 78 EVH tone from PT15 and a few effects, what about that for a video theme? :) cheers!

    At a time when people (including myself) are buying more gear and making more complex rigs, it's refreshing to hear just how good guitar -> cable -> amp sounds. Absolutely loved this one Pete. That amp is an absolutely stellar piece of gear. I have honestly never even come to being unimpressed by something that John has made and this amp is no different.

  • @gisellechacon7081
    @gisellechacon7081 Год назад

    Pete- thanks so much for your excellent channel! I see so many people today that don't really understand how the old amps worked- they approach tube amps like they're just *amps.* But you know that the amp is part of the instrument, just as much as the strings. With your demos, I can actually tell how stuff works- what it sounds and feels like. Plus it's inspiring to hear someone still playing guitar in more than two dimensions. 👍🏼

    Pete - it is so nice to hear the rounder tones of the hombre. I am sure the M160 helps, but this and a more modern plexi style amp at the same time would drip with character and have feedback at more controllable sound levels!

    @EOD714 2 года назад +4

    This amp certainly can punch above its fighting weight. It has some of the best amp overdrive tones I've ever heard, but it is loud. I don't know if it is really louder, or it is pushing certain frequencies that give extra perceived volume. Either way, it is much more pokey than a deluxe reverb.

It starts sounding like this when I get it up to 7 or 8. Its so loud that I usually run the amp clean with a pedal . Id forgotten how plexi like these amps can be. With no dip in the mids this amp is an awesome clean platform as well as a rock machine.
