    Question, you mentioned you were running both a Zilla V30 and a Mesa V30 Two-Notes IR. Are you able to be more specific on which they are (as there are several)? I think they sounded fantastic and I would like to pick some up off the Two-Notes site to try with my Revv Generator. Thank you in advance.

  • @PendelSteven
    @PendelSteven Před 3 lety

    Strat neck duller. Glad you corrected. Many people have a pickup with much treble in their neck on their guitar. Examples of those: '59, Jazz, SSL-1, SSL-5, _Classic Stack Plus_, Slash, Alnico II, Full Shred, Duckbuckers, Pearly Gates, Cruiser, Area 67, Area 58, _Sentient_, Antiquity II Surfer and Seth Lover. The neck pickup is bright on many guitars. And I like it that way. Apparently you do as well, looking at the Chapmans :)

    Love how your demos are done with a LP and a strat both. Best way to see what an amp can really do. Start with the standard guitars most people use, then show what they sound like with other shit like hollow bodies and custom made shredders, etc. Love that old beat up LP custom btw. That thing looks like it’s been around the block a few times lol.

    This is certainly at the top of the best recent trend in valve amps - the inclusion of features to allow silent recording, and the memory of all the switching for each preset is great. Question for you - you said you can't crank amps where you live, but how loud are you actually monitoring when recording/mixing? Is it loud enough for the guitar to naturally feedback, or....? Cheers!

    Hey Rabea, great review and playing as always! I wonder how a G3 pedal would sound going through this amp’s power section as compared to the actual purple channel of the 120 MkIII or the 100P? You could essentially get the equivalent of the 120 MkIII but for the price of this amp and the pedal.
    If you have a G3 pedal, could you try it and make a video of the results?

    Last comment. I did put Revv '15 Generator in my sheet for a reason. Like the Friedman '14 BE-100, Bogner '01 Überschall, Bogner '95 Ecstacy, Diezel '94 VH-4 and Mesa Boogie '92 Dual Rectier, it's (going to be) a modern classic. It should be on many stages post pandemic. In case a Soldano fan complains: I consider the last thirty years modern, that was '87. So I consider that a classic. And I should add the Blackstar '07 Artisan and '07 Series One.

  • @mattw.6726
    @mattw.6726 Před 3 lety

    Sounds great. If you get to keep the amp, I'd be curious if you could tweak the tightness and the phase settings to make the stereo widening work better for you. It seems to work fine when I'm tracking with my JVM and Captor X with the left and right inputs running into separate mono tracks panned left and right rather than summing into a single stereo track, so I'd be curious to see what you can do with it. (Admittedly I'm not a particularly good musician, so it might be that I'm just not noticing the problem.) I'm also wondering if the turning on the "Width" control on the amp isn't combining well with the stereo widening from the Two Notes.

    I took a page from Fender and in my sheet on pedals, on the Revv G-pedals I put: "Revv '15 Generator [Colour]" as the description now. Yes, 2015 was the Gen 1. I'm writing this at the start and pretty sure you still have the same Clean (Blue, right?) & Green channels at least in this MkIII.

    Ah. It's Blue, Green & Red. If you want Blue, Green & Purple there's the 100P MkIII. And if you want all of the channels, there's the 120. But I agree with you, Rabea on the 100R, 'cause my two favourite Revv Pedals are the Green & Red (G2 & G4). R for Red, not for Reverb. :). In Revv's own words: "If the G3 is a scalpel, the G4 is a sledgehammer." Well, then. I prefer the sledgehammer in this 100R.

    @Bognerman14 Před rokem

    I've been looking at another high gai amp head if not a modeler or Kemper profiler. I have as my more vintage high gain amp, my Bogner 20th Shiva, and I set it up to do clean, vintage gain, high gain and boosted gain with the included footswitch. With the Revv, can you set it up so that each channel l is a gainer version of the one before? I would want to set it up as clean - crunch - high gain - higher gain and then I'd use the loop for EQ and effects. I ask because I had a Mark V and I couldn't get it to work this way. Each channel was too different from one another. I love what I hear of the Revv and while it would be cool to set it up as four different or unique sounding channels but I need to set it up as four channels that blend well together more like gain stages or layers of gain. Thanks!

    I like the tones you are getting on this 100r. Then I was checking out the difference between the P and the R model. They make a 120 Mk3. That has the P and the R in it. But all the videos I find make that amp sounds like a metal amp. Where this video makes it a dirty sounding high gain amp. Can the 120 mk3 do the same thing this amp does and more? I am more a Les Paul fender guy. Where this is what you are using were everyone else demoing this amp is using a Caparison or similar type guitar. Those are great guitar but not really what I use. So maybe it sounding super metal on other videos is because of that. What do you think? 120 mks or the 100R?

    Hey Rabea ! \,,/ I've just started recording music at home and I'm having trouble dialing in a tight chuggy metal tone. It sounds all muddy and has no clarity. Could you please make a video for beginners on how you go about dialing in a modern, tight metal tone? Dos and don'ts kind of thing. In a previous video you mentioned you like your tone to sound pretty good from the get go before playing with the nuances because it makes playing and writing more inspiring, that's the kind of thing I'm going for. In case it helps I'm using an Chapman ML1 Modern Baritone into the Plini Archetype plugin.

    I was watching this video and randomly had this thought. "What if Rabea straightened his hair?"
    I'm a dude too 🤣 I've just always seen the curls and now I'm curious.
