Thank you for your support!
The amp sounds great but what really knocked me out was the superb playing. Kudos !!!
Appreciate that! Thanks for checking it out!
Exquisite sound and playing
Thanks so much!
Man that is a beautiful arrangement and sweet sounding amp !
Might have to check it out 🤔
Thanks so much for checking it out! It’s a great amp and it’s super lightweight (12 pounds)!
Awesome sound. 👍👍
Thanks! Appreciate you watching !
#Goals … superb playing oh the amp sounds good too. But wow , excellent playing
Thanks Malik, really appreciate that!!
Great amp, great playing.
Appreciate that :)
The only thing better than that amp is your playing. Awesome!
Aw man, thanks so much!
A superb amplifier. I picked this up a few months ago, looking for something along the lines of a Polytone amp. It proved superior. However, I am selling it now since I've stopped gigging and no longer need the substantial volume or the convenience of its transport.
Glad you liked it when you had it. It's a great little amp!
Appreciate you posting the amp settings. 👍
No problem!
I bought the Henriksen "Bud" a few years ago. It sounds great with my acoustic and electric guitars. It's so versatile. It's a little powerhouse. But of course your playing is beautiful. Im a new member. I'm hoping to gain some of your playing knowledge.
I appreciate your kind words! Henriksen's are great amps for sure :)
This is outstanding! I saw it's featured on Henriksen's website. How great! So, did you record this as a XLR balanced line out into DAW or mic it or both? It sounds great.
Thanks so much! I used two mics the MD-421 on the amp and an M-88 on the hollow body. I did use PSP’s Xeon Limiter in post to glue things together. :)
WOW sO great, but for a great deal IT IS the GUITAR!! Ever played it on a DV Mark Little Jazz?
The bravo deluxe definitely helps! I have, I thought it sounded a bit to “compressed” for my ears. However I’ve heard people get a great sound from them so I suppose it’s just my tastes. I think the blu has tendencies to sounds boxy sometimes, but doesn’t have that compressed sound I hear from the DV’s. I’m not sure what it is? Anyway, thanks so much for checking out this video :)
Hi Nathan, it’s awesome. Can you share the EQ settings? I assume u didn’t use any pedals or effect?
Hi John, the eq setting are on the bottom of the screen towards the beginning of the video :) As far as effects go, not really. I only used two extra effects 1) the PSP Xeon Limiter to glue the mix together and adjust final volume for CZcams. 2) my outboard gear (which I always turn things through) which includes the golden age mkiii pre amps for the microphones and a golden age comp 2A as a soft limiter going into the DAW to make sure there is no clipping. Thanks for your question!
Excellent demo of a sweet amp! They're pricey (compared to other SS amps), but sound great and are built like a tank! Fear not the 6" speaker -- it can hold its own with a loud band, and if you use an extension speaker with it, you can knock down walls!
Defiantly!
I'm curious as to whether you've played any of Quilter's offerings, and if so, what you thought?
BTW, the Henriksen sounds awesome, as does your playing!
I cannot thank you enough. I own a Bud 6 and was wondering what a Benedetto Bravo sounds like on it.
Do you recall what strings you used on the guitar during this illustration? Gauge and brand/type?
Hey Marks list, thanks for watching! I used stringjoy’s 12 gauge broadway strings!
Thank you for getting back with me. I'm big into getting the right strings. I may just get that guitar and those strings.@@NathanBortonMusic
@@markslist1542if you end up getting a Benedetto tell Howard and Jackson I said hi!
I agree its an amazing little amp. But then so is my Quilter reverb, small but yet gets the sweetest clean tones one would think it's a vintage tube amp. I would rate them the same.
Those are great amps as well!!
@@NathanBortonMusic Thanks for your prompt response. I just subscribed and although i have been playing classical and blues and fingerstyle guitar for years, i started playing gypsy jazz and now am in love with jazz standards and players like Grant Green, Joe Pass, Ken burell etc. I love your playing style and i currently have an inexpensive washburn J5 but i put a benedetto pickup on the neck spot and she sounds great. I look forward to learning more. Thanks, tom.
Damn!
Thanks Larry!
😂 Beautiful with or without the amp!
Appreciate that!
Have you the tweeter on or off?
Tweeter is on for me. Thanks for your comment!
thanks for your answer, I appreciate your playing very much@@NathanBortonMusic
