yeah , I think a "single coils only" vid might be fun with strat / tele / mustang. still ironing out some workflow challenges for stereo amp mic-ing but we'll see what we can do; I also would love to try both Morgans in stereo too ha.
@AmbientEndeavours How does the AC5 compare to the FIVE in terms of low volume playing? Would I be better of with the Agro knob on the FIVE if I want some EOB at apartment-friendly low volumes? The new AC5 looks really great though! I've had my eye on the FIVE since you demo'd it a few months ago, but now this is super interesting.
Yeah , for EOB at apartment-friendly volumes I'd really go FIVE. The AGRO lets you get that saturation at much lower volumes. The "dirty clean" sounds from AC5 are great, but I think you'd have neighbors knocking on your door with the AC5 because of volume.
I demonstrate both settings pretty extensively in the video, but yeah to my ears with the switch OFF it sounds more like a normal channel Vox - highs are definitely rolled off a tad, warmer sounding overall.
@@AmbientEndeavors thanks for the reply! the demo was fantastic, but my head is much better at processing tones made with single-coils :) totally my quirk.
This setup with a tele would be cool. Also, this and the Hiwatt hi5 in stereo would be fun.

Great channel & demos. Wishing you much success !
appreciate it! Thanks for the support :)
sounds fantastic!
Thanks friend! Yeah these little guys are seriously cool.
B roll looks so fucking good
Awesome sounding little amp. Loved the copeland vibe on that opening riff ;) Hold nothing back, such a great song.
YES , old school Copeland will always have a special place in my heart
Would love to hear the 29 Pedals JFET boosting it when proper cranked.

Might not be your thing, but I'd be interested in seeing how it handles heavy Fuzz.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I think I’ll do a pedalboard-into-amp video and I’ll have to include fuzz when I do that.
with the bright switch off, is it more like a Vox normal channel?

@@rpadvideo I hear ya! I'm planning to do a follow-up video with single-coils soon. Are you a Strat/Tele/??? player?
@@AmbientEndeavors Strat, Tele, and gold foil here. i have one guitar with Filtertrons, but that's as aggro as i get :)
Have you tried the Tone King Gremlin?
I haven’t played that one yet! They look cool, I’ll have to track one down.
Sounds fantastic. I hear Radiohead tones.
Thanks man!
Do you have the dimensions?
9" w x 8" t x 5.5" d ; can't be more than about 8lbs!
