    Sounds fantastic. That Les Paul is UNREAL!

    John Bohlinger is the best Rig Run Down interviewer. Better than a guitar player.

    Why can I like this video only once? I know, I'm biased because I'm a big fan of Two-Rock amps... but I can't help myself. I bought a Two-Rock last year and it was the best purchase I made for a long long time. I play it every day and it's always a real pleasure. So I'm considering to add a second Two-Rock to the collection (not immediately now because I have other priorities, but later on), and I just hesitate between the TS1 and this new Bloomfield Drive...

    FYI: Bloomfield is a tiny little town very near the other tiny town of Two Rock Ca where they got their names. Next they will come out with the Two Rock Cotati. Cotati Ca. is where the Two Rock amp was born in the nineties just down the road from Mesa Engineering/Boogie in Petaluma Ca. All kinds of the best high end music gear comes from Sonoma County Ca. Apogee, EMG, Alembic, Voodoo Labs, SIT Strings, Shubb Capos, Dunlop Mudslides, Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab, RAM Speaker Cabinets.......just to name a few among many.

      Yes, and the Burnside is named after Burnside Rd., in Sonoma County.

    • @RU-HDD-4-HVN
      @RU-HDD-4-HVN 6 лет назад

      cosmo naut .......Excellent information, as I'm not familiar with their whole lineup of amps. But.......I have been all over Burnside Rd. It has a great view at the hilltop of the Santa Rosa valley and the Westerly views towards the coastal valleys near the Bodega area about 10 miles away. It's a high view from Sebastopol. Maybe they're going to come out with the "Two Rock Bodega" lol!! Cool amp names for days in SoCo. Thanks for the great comment friend.

    John...I totally dug your article about the hair dye in the mag and wondered how it would end. Just thrilled to see that you have made the change (you got me thinking about doing it myself). Looks much better my brotha. NOW...the tone. I AM ABSOLUTELY F'ING OBSESSED WITH THIS TONE. Seriously. I have a Friedman JJ-100 on order and a Germino and Matchless in my stable and I can't stop thinking about this video. Hell, I don't even usually like P-90's...but you my friend worked sheer magic with this rig. Great tone from a great player. I'm sure I'm responsible for 50% of the views. KEEP IT UP.

  • @glenguldbeck1918
    @glenguldbeck1918 6 лет назад

    Thanks so much John!!!! My 50 watt Bloomfield head arrives tomorrow!!!!! Can't wait to piss off the neighbors....lol. Your reviews matter and you are a tremendous asset to Premiere, which is the only guitar mag I subscribe to these days. Cheers and all the best to you!!!!

    I really like the concept of these casual first look videos but it would really be nice to have a mic for John. The room mic approach is good but a good mic would be better too.

  • @bobveckalov
    @bobveckalov 6 лет назад

    Hi to all. Since units you are reviewing are real deal, it is needed to have separate mic for you as speaker and separate one for amp. It is a extra effort but you, your playing and gear deserve it, in MHO

    John! Dude! C'mon... I watch you every week in EVERYTHING that you post on youtube. I'm a 40+ year guitar player, and you're one of my Top 7 guitar player personalities on youtube that I must watch. I even have that app that when I turn on my computer, it shows me your latest posting. I just saw you a few days ago,...so, WHEN DID YOUR HAIR TURN COLOR?? Don't get me wrong, you look great, even more distinguished (and younger) than Clooney! Just a little sudden from my perspective..lol. Btw, can't wait for the Trower posting. Not a week has gone by since 1974 that I haven't either listened to Bridge of Sighs in my vehicle, or at home, or on youtube, and/or played any or all the songs off that record on my guitar. We even play 2 of his songs un-plugged (In This Place and About to Begin) in our band, plus 2 electrics. Hope Robin plays for us a bit.. Thanks, as always, for posting.

    I hope they make a 35 watt version like the Studio Pro. Then it would be more affordable for a wide audience. Now it's only for professionals and rich people. The 40 watt combo should have been a head.

  • @galactictravels224
    @galactictravels224 6 лет назад

    how are they getting 100 watts out of those 6v6's are you guys certain that its not 6l6's and 6v6's in the combo? Great job the amp sounds amazing

  • @nomdeplume8393

    I'd love Two-Rock to release a 40/20w Head.

    • @TwoRockAmplifiers
      @TwoRockAmplifiers 6 лет назад +7

      You can order this in a 40/20 watt Head ;-)

    • @Spidouz
      @Spidouz 6 лет назад +1

      TwoRockAmplifiers good news, I thought it was only for "Custom" orders... (which could also mean custom prices :( ).
      I understand it's pretty much the same Amp and I wouldn't expect it to be cheaper, as long as it's not more expensive.
      It's just to have a wattage that would be exploitable at bedroom/Studio/Small venues volumes. My TR 35w is more than loud already. I wouldn't mind to have a Bloomfield Drive 100w... as long as it could be turned down to 50, then 10 and maybe even 1w.
      That's also why I love my SP35+ even more than a CRS or TC, because of the loop return level acting as a master volume. I can get it cranked at bedroom volume ... and it sounds lovely.

    2024 and I still don't get why do people keep uploading videos of amps that are not mic'd up, they are useless for other than bragging about a nice guitar and amp.
