I have never seen a lefthanded Evh Wolfgang in that color? I would love to get a link to that guitar?
Hey Sweetwater, thanks for bringing back Nick Bowcott. He's been outta the spotlight for far too long. A truly great guitar player, and a really cool bloke!!
I don’t think the mic did the speaker justice but I trust your humble opinion, and like always, another fantastic demonstration!
I agree. It sounded very boxy.
Nah.. trust your ears.
Needed a 12 inch celestion
@@bayouburner281 I have multiple 10’s and they never sound like that with high gain. In the end it is all subjective. I appreciate the response. What’s your favorite 12 inch speaker?
This is too fizzy for my taste.
I always forget that Nick is an absolute shred monster! :)
I love that he's playing some Grim Reaper in this demo! I will admit for years I had never heard of that band and I know Nick from all these demos but that's awesome!
He's an even better teacher than he is a player and that is saying something. Serious Mr. Miyagi moments. I wish I hadn't hit hard times and could have kept going.
@@benmurphy7654 Speaking of which, Rocksmith+ does have most of the best Grim Reaper songs on it but of course it would be more fun to learn it from Nick himself since he played it originally.
@@pip5528 We didn't talk about Grim Reaper. We talked about songwriting, arranging, quirky NWOBHM and sleaze rock bands that weren't as popular, attitude, reckless abandon, forgetting theory then analyzing with theory, and it was mostly about writing with the bad attitude that people seem to have lost lately in their writing.
I think this is the best sounding EVH I’ve heard. It sounds the most like the tones on the old albums.
purchased one about a week ago with fender hammertone chorus and delay pedals hooked it up to a 12"vintage 30 16ohm cab switched to 8ohms played on 4watts and it rocked the club
What's amazing is how much of that classic EVH tone he's able to muster just by using one of EVH's guitars and that amp and no effects. It's not as on the money as say a USA EVH signature Wolfgang guitar and a 5150 III EL34, but the entire package here is less than $2k and sounds amazing for the average player just looking to be able to crank out some EVH tones in their office or bedroom.
Wish I could afford this, Eddie is why I play. When I was younger I looked a lot like him everyone called me little Eddie and said I should have been in hot for teacher. Sucks being disabled on a fixed income.
Had an Iconic combo for about 7 months. It totally rocked, but sadly had issues ( disappearing low end and volume issues that couldn't be solved by tube changes). Sold it and eventually got the OG 5150 head instead, and I have no regrets. I just wish EVH improves their QC a bit more because I wouldn't have minded keeping that killer little 40w combo. I may consider picking this one up just for a little house rock machine.
See if you can finds a Peavey Bravo combo or A Peavey Rockmaster all tube pre amp for cheap. The Peavey Usa Bravo and Rackmaster all tube pre amp were both built and see designed by James Brown who did this new amp. The old Peavey stuff is so close to the same evh icon series but let your ears describe the sounds you are looking for.
Did you sell faulty amp?
James Brown does it again! Big fan of his AmpTweaker line of pedals.
SO FUNKY HE CAN'T SLEEP WITH HIMSELF, GOOD GAWWWWD.
Mine is arriving tomorrow. Too bad he didn't do more clean to moderate gain tones,as being single-end Class A [1x6L6] should give a spongier,harmonically rich tone. But it is an amp geared toward EVH fans and metal players, so this video makes sense, overall.
Love this guy's playing and reviews! Such a humble, humorous and talented gentleman, Nick is. Well done as always sir!
I have one, really like it for at home, fun to fiddle with. You need to send the presence and resonance to get it to sound big...more twiddling needed for this video
OMG "NEVER COMING BACK" sounded so awesome on that thing. Dam now I gotta get one.
This guy is so awesome. Great demo and great sense of humor and comments.
Pretty cool Nick... I suck at guitar but I have a blast playing the riff to "See You in Hell". Always loved Grim Reaper since I was a kid in the 80's.
Just went to Sweetwater for the first time to day. I played a Wolfgang through a 5150 iconic 40 watt, wish they had this there so I could crank it up and not disturb people in the guitar section 😂
You can take any amp you want in a controlled room and crank it up if you want.
It’s a practice amp and it’s sounds good ! For house stuff is perfect great valvle tone headphone input best option to have fun without deystroy the house🔥
Glad to see some good tube combo amps under $1k with modern features these days. Would have been cool to see some evh type effects thrown in like a phaser but I guess that’s why you need to buy the pedals.
1:03????????????
Great demo Nick! Just once I'd like to hear Don's interpretation of EVH, Jake E. Lee, era of metal, and Nick's interpretation of the Oakridge Boys, Conway Twitty era County sound 😁
Nick is the best...Good guy
You've worked hard to learn those riffs sir! Nice video and really helpful. I might get one of these to go with my Peavy Wolfgang.
You my absolute favorite demo dude !
Incredible playing Nick! Best reviewer ever.
I can hear some great potential, but I think the 10” speaker holds it back. If they make a head it might be worth a look.
12"
I use to Marshall was the best until I bought Two Vox valvetronix hybrid Amps in 2007 and 2009 both have Electro Harmonix gold pin 12Ax7 Tubes in them very versatile and sounds incredible even 14 and 16 years later..I would never part with them
Fellas this man has got a great right(lol left hand picking hand southpaw) hand, that’s how you play heavy guitar. I always enjoy Nick’s demo videos because he covers the tones I want to hear can it do clean, can it do AC/DC , can it thrash ? Does it rawk!
The Matt Heafy Epiphone sounded killer thick through it.
Nick says he’s sloppy, he’s not sloppy it’s RnR and I believe he pretty much does it live in the room? Most RUclips guitarist play to a mistake free edited backing track . They are playing but the “live” level is lower.
Another awesome video Nick! Now I want all that gear ! Lol…. Definitely on the wish list now :)
I think is a great sounding amp, having recorded for years in studios,
Nice STP bit there pal!....."Been waiting for my Sunday Girl"👍
Nice tones I would like to have one to hear it live
It’s definitely louder than my line 6 spider v 30
It's only $100 less than the regular Iconic. That doesn't scream "value." Can't imagine Fender selling many of these.
I have both the 15 and the 40 and the 15 watt is lighter and more useful. The 40 is almost too much. If the 15 was available at the same time the 40 was i would have left the 40 at the store.
Mehhh, I'd rather get a mini Silver Jubilee!
It’s not way cheaper because we didn’t strip it down on the features like most companies do….same preamp with same tube compliment, big transformers to operate class A, closed back, custom Celestion 10 where most would use a cheaper speaker, same full EQ and Resonance/Presence, same loop, 1/4 power switch, standby, same, and comes with the footswitch.
@@adamarsenault1785 lolol you must not play with people in a live setting. And NO.. 15w is never ever loud enough.
@@davidfaustino4476 Hi Bud! After 30 years of live experience I beg to differ.
It would def be more attractive with a 12” speaker. Haters gonna hate. Long live the mighty VH FOREVER👍🏼
I mean that's what the 40w combo is for. They already had a 1x12. Now they're releasing a 1x10 15w and a 2x12 version to cover all the bases. You wouldn't catch me ever buying anything with smaller than a 12" speaker, the only exception to that rule would be something like the Yamaha THRs which were the best sounding "little" amps ever made imo.
It's definitely got that 10" honk that I'm not a fan of.
That's a cracking little amp!
Nick your off the hook great demo ❤
That amp. is totally amazing. 100 pounds of dynamite in a 5 pound box. What more would you need.. I owned a early 70's Fender Princeton Reverb (15 watt / single 10) that I sold and I could still kick myself to this day for letting it go.
Amps great!!! Keep Rocken Nick!!!
would you say this has more output against a Fender Blues Junior? Which one would do better playing with a drummer? I don't mean playing leads, I mean playing rhythm in a more clean setting as opposed to super-crunch heavy metal.
Waiting for an affordable EVH 5150 Solid State or Hybrid amp!
Gain sounds fuzzy, fizzy.
How does someone at your playing level decide what to play I would go insane trying to play everything lol. Obvious choices for this video well played!!!!
No offence, but i found the tones in this video horrible. I could guess it is because i'm not used to 10inch speakers. And this one really does sound FIZZY. Thank you for the up to date Review!
Check your ears
@@rocksteady6448 i did! found nothing out of order...
You can tell all this from your phone
@@danig-r550 ?
its called settings lol
I couldn’t have been a bigger fan of Eddie’s. But for some reason, I have never been even slightly interested in trying to play his music or buy his gear.
Nick Bowcott - Legend
Really sounds great🤘🤘 awesome guitar work Nick🤘🤘🤘 thanks Sweetwater,
Looks like a great versatile amp :)
For $100 more you can get the 40 watt. This would be in my house if it were cost little less. This price makes no sense. For example Vox AC 30 = 1,299, AC 15 = 899.
This has been one of the better sounding videos on this amp. Most I hear make this thing sound boxy and way to many mids... So, in real life, how does the 10 in give as for low end?
They all sound too bright and fizzy on RUclips demo/videos... but the sound is MUCH deeper in person. It never goes dark, but definitely a lot richer than the youtube videos make it sound like, and without the fizz..... i tried it with a Tele and with a Les Paul, sounds amazing with both.
Good lord it sounds like a can of bees. Is there a built in fuzz pedal in that amp?
Sounds incredible.
Not my kind of music...BUT THAT JAM WAS AWSOME!
Man if you guys think this is overpriced go look up the 5 watt marshall slash sig.
That is one small step toward lefties; one giant leap toward an actual lefty giveaway.
(:
meh. Who is this amp designed for?..
The 40 watt version($100 more) sounds sick while this 15 watter sounds thin and anemic. It could just be a shit job of mic placement but more probably it's the 10" speaker.
Pro Tip: Get the 40 watt version and buy an attenuator so you can push the amp and control volume.
Mine should be here next week a black one I ordered
Thanks, inspired playing,
Dead and Bloated! That's an oldie.
Great sound!
Is the clean riff at 3:27 from any particular song? It sounds so familiar to me
People saying this amp is overpriced go search for other 15 watt tube amps. The price is comparable. And don't give that Monoprice piece of crap.
used MT15+ harley benton 2xv30 .Better options.
Awesome man. I really want that
Nice very nice
🤘Never coming back 🤘
Wonderful! I love it! I should own one! How much does it cost? Thanks! I'm saving for this one.
It's linked in the description.
Sounds great…like classic EVH. I don’t understand the haters.
because it's a hybrid modeller, it's a budget amp, and people think they are getting a True 5150, that's the problem.
I just realised that the main riff from Ghost's Little Sunshine is *_highly derivative_* of AC⚡DC's Hell's Bells! 😱
...And by "highly derivative", I mean → a blatant rip-off, with just the slightest alteration to keep it from being another Vanilla Ice "cut & paste" sampling job !
great,,,,i want one.
Are the combo amp speakers the same as what’s loaded in the 5150 iconic cabinets?
Hi, Dan-sx9gl. Yes, the Iconic series all share the same Celestion EVH Custom speakers.
Thanks for your interest!

Got 20 bucks that speaker don't sound like that without some help. The 40 sounded like a bunch of angry bees in a can.
For the record, the 15w 5150 doesn't come with the noise gate.
Made in Indonesia. No bargain here.
What do they do to follow up? Offer a 1 12. :(
That first guitars kinda badass fullbody deep cutaway..
NIIIIIIICK!!!!!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Shredmeister!
The price doesn't make any sense at all
You will likely find this well below MAP if you wait a few months. You can find the 40w for cheaper than the 15w. You should be able to get this ~15% off not too soon after release.
Hey Nick,is the 15 watt loud enough to play with drums?
Hi, B Tee. The amp is loud enough that you’ll likely be able to hear it with drums but at only 15W, it will likely be pushed to it’s peak. By that point the amp will be compressing and you’ll lose a lot of the tightness and definition in the bottom end. These amps are great for home use and recording, but if you’re going to be playing with a drummer or gigging, I’d recommend looking at one of 50W models.
Thanks for your interest!

So many lefties... **cries**
The opening tone sounded pretty good. Then the rest of the video happened. Not sure what was going on, but it sounded like two different amps.
My thoughts exactly. After that opening it sounded like nasal phased out
What happened in that opening was a whole lot of mixing and post EQ-ing (specifically low pass filtering those guitars). The way the amp sounds shrill and fizzy in the rest of the video is simply what that 10 inch speaker naturally sounds like. Not exactly ideal for huge 5150 style high gain. I'd be very curious to hear what these amps sound like through a good cab though.
He had the Les Paul on that opening. Once you go LP, there's no going back..........
Affordable for who again?
It sounds cheap to me, but i am also viewing this on my phone.
This is a perfect example of why I don’t care for low wattage amps. Sounds so thin and fizzy. No muscle, no punch. Just sounds horrible to me. Don’t mean to offend, just telling it like it is.
Agreed this amp sounds like a can of bees.
Can you get a free Edward by the amp?
Compair it to the mesa Boogie U have behind u
Walter White shredz
Little to pricey for a 15watt combo. Sounds good though.
I mis the hummppf in this amp! Lol is needed.....
How can we make our own opinion with a chorus plugged ? That's a nonsense, you make a demo of an amp with tons of extra stuff we don't care ... :(
good point
outta my pricerange, because it says EvH
I would still buy the 40w. Bigger speaker, and you still can drop it down to 10watts.
I've been playing for 30 years, I blew up my Trace Elliott and needed a new amp. I had no budget within reason and played many $3k amps, I bought the EVH 40watt and I love it.
Yeah but you will have to micro-manage the volume if you can't play loud and thus you won't get the true ripping sound. It's "ok" at bedroom volume but you're cutting your tone short if you HAVE to play low volume.
Anything with overdrive is pretty loud on the 40w.
Was excited about this until I heard it. Sounds so boxy.
What´s the impedance if you only use the amp speaker?? thanks in advance
Hi, Jose MC. The output impedance with a single stock speaker would be 8 ohms.
Thanks for your interest!

@@sweetwater Thank you very much Mr. Davis.

The distortion sounds cheap
honestly, I agree. It sounds like a very cheap Dirt box. I think I could get better OD out of a dirty monkey.
15 watt 1x10 for 800 bucks?! Yikes...
Channel switching, reverb, and attenuator. It’s really like a $400 amp with extras 😅
@@rodrigoavila4133 haha True. I mean, I get it everything's going up. BUT the 40 watt version with a 1x12 is only $100 more...
@@NS-tc9kk …you really went through the trouble of replying to a comment of mine from 6 months ago because I struck a nerve.
Who’s really the whiner here 💀
There's more expensive amps out there with less watts . So not sure what you mean
Maybe it’s me but it sounds very muddy 😮
I thought the opposite. It sounded brittle
It sounds like a can of bees to me. I didn't like it at all.
