I have one now, did two gigs the 1st weekend, one indoors the other outdoors and wow it’s the best amp I’ve ever owned, wonderful tone and does all I require. It’s loud enough for all the venues we play at and it’s pretty light. I love the cleans for country twang or soul triads, it works really well with pedals and the Zendrive sounded super smooth through the Creamer. Tremelo and reverb are superb. Build quality is the absolute best, it’s outstanding in every way. A remarkable amp Tim!
I have a 10W Pint and a 20W Creamer both came with Jupiter Alnico speakers. The speakers are horribly lifless and stiffer n a wedding pecker until they start breaking in , then they sweeten up nicely but many hours are needed to soften them up. XLNT tone. I'd love to try a different speaker in the Creamer tho ... Killer old school amps are really nice after 40+ years of big amp blasting..... these 63 year old ears loves it!
A+ tones as always. What would you think about a Princeton vs Creamer shootout? I dig the tones - sometimes I think the "boutique sound" has more attack, more compression than the mass market original - I'd really dig a side by side look/hear. Thanks for the great tones!
i mostly use superior drummer for everything and then buy a lot of drum samples. then i export each "mic", rather than doing it on the superior mixer. i have way better tools for mixing drums than they offer. fake drums sound great when you mix them like you would real drums. also, 8pm CST for mr tim marcus!
@@DemosInTheDark Just went through all my libraries in my SD3 and think I found something similar :) I tried taking them out separately in the past, but it was too time consuming as I do everything myself (Guitar, Bas, Singing, Programming, Mixing etc.). I'm very impressed with the sound - Nice job!! Also nice job with the demo, as always :)
Sounds amazing - would love to hear your recommendations on 20 watt amps at a more "value" price point as I'm a few months in to my guitarist journey and loving it. Currently playing through my son's old GDE Jr. - but wouldn't mind a stand alone amp vs. one that replicates other Fender amp models.
i hear that they’re expensive, but they’re also in extremely high demand. there’s a wait list. so the gear world *IS* buying.

@@DemosInTheDark the amp serves a need. Always a plus that Tim can build by hand a great sonic sounding amp. Good for him that there is a waiting list for his musical creations! Good demo Ryan!
@@waltersmetak that’s good to hear, I mean it’s the “roundabout” price for a lot of the hand built small builder amp stock, 50w 3k isnt “bad” if it’s one person hand building these, at all! 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@rolux4853 Mesa Boogie. Won't argue that it is subjective to personal tastes. But $3,500 for a 20W. Don't hear enough of a compelling difference. Send me one and I convince me ;)

Excellent tones! Great playing, great demo, thank you for sharing.
thanks so much!!!
This thing sounds gorgeous! A HT15 is on my list to pick up eventually
yeah, i need to try oneadem!
Thanks! I really enjoy your demos.
Sounds incredible! Great demo, as usual. You could probably make a solid state Crate combo sound good though!
oh i dunno about that. hahaha! thanks for the kind words!
Sounds absolutely beautiful!
you are absolutely right!
Amazing amp, amazing playing. Killer work as usual.
thanks homie!
Great tone. 🎸🎵
it’s a killer amp!

i can do that if i get time. i have a ‘67.
@@DemosInTheDark this would be a great shootout!
@@DemosInTheDark hoping this video still gets made at some point
Love the drums!!! Got the amp :o)
suck a kicka** amp! you know we have tim on the live show tomorrow (the 26th)? great dude. should be fun!

dang man that things sounds good.
it's a lovely amplifier!!
Sounds amazing
Cut Throat Down Brownie is where it is at.
b7#11 Well played Sir! 🤓
This my dream amp, thanks for the video, very impressive review and amp. Cheers.
oh cool! yeah, it's a goodie for sure. i play it all the time!
Sounds awesome but also what does cathode biasing mean? lol. I love listening to amps but stuff like that goes over my noggin. Lol
12:51 nicenicenice!!!
That sounds fantastic. Geez.
yeah dude. i know. milkman kills.
What is your favorite fuzz pedal? I like the EarthQuaker Reaper Fuzz pedal.
what speaker was used ceramic or Alnico? thanks!
ceramic
@@DemosInTheDark sweet! thanks
Simpsons! Didn't know that was Lydian. But then I don't know my modes by ear anyway...
lydian dominant. it has a flat 7. 😎
Jetsons cartoon theme also Lydian
@@mark8scI love the way that Danny Elfman slipped that Jetsons reference into the Simpsons theme
12:58 "The Simpsons," 🎶
For home use the creamer or the half pint ?
home? half pint for sure!

This is a boutique Fender Princeton… so just go for a cheap Fender Princeton sec hand
@@neve4020 ive had both the cheap princeton is just ok...BUT the Creamer is AMAZING!!! and it. better be at3K
@@neve4020 more so it’s a Deluxe Reverb but hand wired, boutique, etc. Cause it’s 20 watts
What mic do you use to record the amps?
usually a ribbon and a condensor, but this was a 414xls and tlm67
@@DemosInTheDark It sounds great!
How did you record the amp?
TLM67 and 414XLS
@@DemosInTheDark sounds glorious, I’ve got the same amp and I’m looking to record, what mic would you suggest if the budget is up to $600?
What model is that Gibson at the end? ES-339? Sounds epic 👍
yeah! custom shop es-339. lurve that guit!
Nice sounds but at $3000 is "Mucho Dinero" that's lot of hard earned "Mula." Is it worth it perhaps but a very few in the gear world will buy this!

For the same price, its possible to fetch his 50w.

just bought one 😉
Have one up coming for sale vanilla creamer. Anyone need one. It’s mint with an alnico Jupiter 12 inch speaker
Sounds buzzy.. just buy a Benson or a Fender Princeton or Deluxe Reverb.
Way overpriced - you can get better for less.
Example please?
Without the need to build it yourself..

Insane tone. But $3,000 worth?
