Life too short for long CZcams videos? Please see the timings in the ‘Interesting bits and go-to sections’ information below to help you navigate the video.
In this video we try out some alternatives to a traditional guitar amp head and ask how they feel and sound.
You might need such a product as a spare or emergency contingency should your main amp go down; you might want to base a (physically) tiny rig around one; or you may want to augment your existing setup with wet/dry or even wet/dry/wet capabilities. We discuss of the above.
Any one of these units is small enough to be mounted on your pedalboard… as long as you have a speaker cable long enough to reach your cabinet.
We try each of the tiny amps with three common types of front end/OD: a standard overdrive pedal; a dedicated valve preamp; and a non-valve pedal which is a mix of the two.
PLEASE NOTE: The Vox MV50AC gets some criticism for not having much clean headroom. It should be noted that we're using it at the 16-ohm / 12.5 watt power setting. For the full 50 watts and (presumably) more clean headroom, you need to use a 4-ohm speaker load.
PLEASE ALSO NOTE: This video is NOT about speaker emulation or playing direct. It’s about using pedal-sized alternatives to an amp head. You still require a speaker for what we’re talking about today.
Thank you for watching… Please enjoy the video!

Guys, what can I say, I've played guitar for FORTY years but my real amp & effects education began with That Pedal Show. It was like stumbling around a dark room! The amount of gear I've been through & discarded is immense. I so look forward to Fridays now to catch the latest show. You are legends
quilter needs to be in on this.
Pedal sized amps are getting quite common, I think they should start making amp sized pedals . :P
+Cody Baggett See, now we'd be much more interested in that. :0)
Doesn't Dan have a few of those already?
Roland space echo, and tape delay units from the 60s and 70s like the echoplex etc were basically the size of a guitar head.
The old fender spring reverbs are this big!
Old Big Muffs, Old Fuzz Faces, not the size of an amp but hilariously big
I theenk it's high time this subject gets revisited, as there are now a lot more products in this category, as well as cab sim pedals and IR loaders in pedal format. Hotone alone has single and dual channel models. Orange has a stomp amp as well, and I expect something from Tech 21 any minute now. It's a very hot topic amongst us old fahrts suffering from roadie spine, and not for nothing, you fellas could probably wring an episode or three out of ultralights and fly rigs in general.
I doubt the boys will do the IRs, but I agree, there are so many more/new pedal-sized amps I would love for them to look at!
challenge for TPS: pedalboard with one knob pedals
José Escudero so basically tone city and Mooer?
EQD, EHX, MXR, Walrus audio and more Brands
I love this idea. Even a challenge where you have to build an entire rig with X amount of knobs
Mine would be Analog Man Juicer, LAA Custom NV81 boost and CN81 overdrive, MXR Phase 45, Lovepedal Babyface Tremolo, Lovepedal Echo Baby, Rockett Boing
and more!
Congrats on 100,000 subscribers gents. Sky's the limit from here. Your Guitar Country needs you
The Nutube is actually a real tube. It's an adaptation of a vacuum display tube used in vcrs and the like.
K0
very useful episode... as ever! I'm 30 years in to my tone quest... and as much as I'm pretty schooled up on this sh1t, there is ALWAYS something useful to be gleaned, from every single episode of your very fine show that i have thus far watched. Love ya! Stay healthy, stay safe x
You guys should revisit this with the current options. Ehx howitzer, quilter options, etc.
31:03
"He has exercised the demons.." 🤣🤣 best Dan comment ever!!
I love when the cabinet mics pick up Dan in the background going "oh, yea!"
You guys inspire me to be a better guitar player. I learn so much from this show and I've been playing for 19 years. Thank you please keep them coming. ... also I love the longer shows
Just wanted to thank you guys for the video, I've been basically stranded in my house from Harvey for the past week, and your videos have helped keep me sane.
+wesley .walcott Our best to everyone there Wesley. That looks like no fun at all. Glad TPS is providing some respite!
That last wet/dry was amazing! Intoxicating!
I've been using an EHX 22 Caliber, in small clubs for years.
Would love to see more of the Seymour, maybe with a quilter and hit them with some different preamps, watching you guys sort this stuff out and make yourselves smile and glow is what it's all about.
+Chuck Dickens There's more SD coming in the episode with Steven Wilson in a week or so. Dan has integrated it into his live rig. Interesting! We're making enquiries about Quilter - not common in the UK! Cheers.
+Chuck Dickens We shall do that.
The fact that the Seymour Duncan is powered with an IEC cable appeals to me greatly. I get nervous using those thin, fragile wires on a lot of power supplies. BTW, that blue Duesenberg guitar is gorgeous!
"I like that." out of Dan is extremely high praise. Dude is basically four square foot of tolex wrapping from just becoming a valve amplifier himself.
I heard the Seymour Duncan in person recently at a trade show, and it was super impressive! Through an Orange cab it certainly had enough punch to gig with!
This show needs to be updated.
You should have mentioned, that the power supply of the Magnum 44 is as twice as big and heavy as the "pedal" itself. Many guitarists may get the impression that they can power it together with the other effects on their board with a multi output supply. Besides that it´s a great device.
Thanks, that helps me in making a final decision on one of these!
The Magnum is a missed opportunity: not quite loud enough for a loud live band situation without mic. Given the big supply, why not make the pedal a bit bigger and 100w?
Thanks for doing this video guys. I know I'm not responsible for this but its great to see an episode about something I have previously suggested.
Gotta give a shout out for my Baroni Lab Mini 50. It's awesome! Pedal sized combo amp, Will drive a speaker cab or line level, and effects loop. Sounds great! Also makes for a great emergency back up amp that fits in a gig bag pocket!
Constable into Powerstage was the best sound of the whole video! Very cool. Thanks guys, keep looking at new and interesting solutions!
I would personally like to thank you for making me broke for the next few months. It's because of your show I was introduced to the Klon Centaur and after watching your videos, I decided to buy a clone pedal and I was pleased but recently I had the opportunity to buy one for a hell of a deal. It is truly amazing. The clones are cool but my silver Klon has something different going on. The way this pedal feels is amazing the clones are close but it's the way the pedal feels and reacts that makes the difference. Again thanks.
+The Computer Geeks We approve. Highly. Congrats on the Klon. They are truly special. :0)
I'm glad Dan mentioned Mick's vibrato.
It's the thing that impresses me most about his playing.
Very soulful and full of feeling.
+Alan Dalton Wow, thanks Alan. :0)
They Seymour duncan is £350 (!). That's a lot for a get-me-out-of-jail sound, in fact you could get plenty of small heads for that.
You guys really need to check out the Quilter Lab amps. They have a power amp in a pedal design that would fit well in the context of the video. Their other amps are Class D powered and sound amazing.
In your description you have "MXR Magnum 44", definitely a EHX Magnum 44...should definitely change that.
I bought the 170 for use when I need to run light to a gig and put a Joyo American between it and my effects - and it's awesome. I have a room full of amps (Fender, Supra ) and the Hotone Britwind as a "lifeboat" (which I've used), but the SD 170 is pretty nice when there is a back line in place.
Yes, yes, yes!!! I wanted this episode to happen. Thank You so much, guys!
Wow, that sound around the 47:30 mark gave me chills.
You guys seems like answering my prayers every week 😂
Mick's playing was on fire in this one.
Don't worry about time. We're right with you, start to finish. Especially loved the experimenting at the end.
Guy's great show as always, just wanted to say your recording of reverb is 100% better than older shows, might be worth revisiting some of the older reverb products for the benefit of the product as much as anything.....Keep up the great work! Cheers tim
The problem as I see it with these little micro amps is that the new generation will never learn to appreciate the joy of lugging 40Kg speaker cabinets and valve heads with transformers the size of houses about. We are in danger of spawing a generation of players who will be barely strong enough to tune their guitars.
+fletches40 You haven't lived until you've been up and down a third floor fire escape with a JBL-loaded Twin. :0)
My personal favourite is a 4x12 Fane-equipped HiWatt cabinet. I strongly suspect they are teak around a cast iron frame.
Great show. I did notice at one point you referred to the tone out of one of the microamps as "boxy". I think that can be said of a lot of modern amps (of any size) especially the DSP variety. The Seymour Duncan was pretty decent however. Easily the best of the bunch here.
Cheers
This Toys are cheap for my cash xD
~Has an Orange Rockerverb 100 MK III and a 40" tall 4x10 from 1970s~
~Is 21
ok boomer
Awesome show (as always)! Both you guys play some smoking licks! The Seymour Duncan Power Stage caught my eye, but maybe I was influenced when I saw Jared James Nichols playing it on the Duncan channel. I'm a home player, so this appealed to me in that sense. I see why Duncan made it, as it would pair nicely with their Palladium Gain Stage!
wow, both of you are playing in top fashion today !!!!!
Nice to see you bring out the Empress Reverb again! I remember you #SawAtNamm their new Echosystem, can't wait for you to demo that soon :)
It's Larry Carlton who runs the stereo 'wet' through a PA style system in a live setting... his setup is very simple, but amazingly effective; you should do a show with him.
Power Stage sounds great! Impressed!
You should include the Mooer Baby Bomb Power Amp Pedal a little 30 watt beast. Combined with one of their Micro Preamp pedals and you have an amp that fits in your pocket.
I have used the VOX MV50 as my Main amp gigging as well as in a full band setting with no problem . The thing is Loud and can handle a Band setting.
I had vox mini amp twice in my huge gigs. Idk it keeps on failing me in the middle of the gig. It will shut down itself or just simply mute itself that u have to unplug and plug back the power.
@@kuyakoi3469 ECO mode maybe?
I have a ZT Lunchbox amp. It isn't exactly pedal sized (because it's a combo amp with a 6.5 inch speaker) but it's pretty darn close...and it's LOUD (200 watts). Lot's of clean headroom. The Gain adds volume but not much distortion. Great for pedals. And it has an Extension Speaker jack if you want to add a cab to it. No Effects Loop though.
The EHX 44 Magnum is a cool little amp, I used it in various situations. I am glad more manufacturers are making them. Pair it with a high quality overdrive it sounds fantastic.
You guys should definitely do another session for Bluguitar Amp1 with detailed comparisons etc. It's such an amazing product and it would be great to see it in this show.
I know the Orange Pedal Baby isn’t pedal sized, but I feel that it blows these units out of the water, and it’s much more affordable. The class A/B makes it sound and feel more tube like, these other guys sound too sterile. I know that they’re not meant to be used without some sort of preamp, but it’s important whether or not your power amp sounds good on its own.
The Bogner Ecstasy pedals, Blue and Red, through the .44 Mag sounds amazing.
The SD Powerstage kills!!! And man I love the Empress Reverb!!!
Great episode guys!! 👌🏼
Most educational guitar related show on You Tube. Light hearted and fun way to learn a bit about the science and engineering as well as hearing what pedals are capable of doing in the right hands. How about a show on Pete Cornish pedals?
Still on the lookout for a TPS show comparing all the different Fender tube amps and how they take pedals differently. Needs to happen!
Please please please do a full episode with Thomas Blüg and his BluGuitar Amp1/BluBox combo on the show! I'm planning on purchasing one to gig light without many compromises and I would love to see you guys dive deep into the products with him and how the combination compares to traditional, full size amps :)
Daniel Sanchez I just want the same thing! In terms of Thomas' intro about Amp1 here, he has done that with Dan already, probably in 2015. It is also a very good one. BUT, the BluBox, along with other amp stimulators, maybe?
Don't wait for the show. Just buy one. I did and I will not regret it.
I have the Amp 1. I got it for my pedals so I only use the clean sound. It definitely sounds and feels like a tube amp.
I use a Vertex Steel String Clean Drive which is meant to make a Fender tube amp sound like a Dumble Steel String Singer amp. I can not say it makes the Amp 1 sound like Dumble. lol
I can say it turns the Amp1 into one the best clean amps you will ever hear.
I would never go back to tube amp again.
I have a similar setup: Clean channel and Lovepedal Super Six and Mad Professor Simble for the "SRV sound". But I also use the Vintage channel for Hendrix stuff. The Vintage channel also takes pedals as fuzz, vibe, rotary well.
Daniel Sanchez They already have. Check the videos from a year ago, maybe more.
Should try out a Quilter Microblock. I run the preamp of my tube amp into it withe es8 via 4 cable method. It's an easy fix for stereo. Also gives my amp a touch more headroom for volume on leads. My tube amp is 28 watts. Microblock is 45.
Thank you guys for these videos! They are the best out there!! Please never stop!!!!!!! I can't wait to see the comparison between Mobius and the new Boss MD 500
I want that Royal Overdrive. Yeah it sounds great.... but those knobs. Omg. They are so cool looking. The knobs alone are worth the price of admission.
I have carried an EHX caliber (sic) 22 in the back of my Lonestar Special for the last few years. If the amp goes down that's always there ready to be plugged into the speaker. I've never had to use it but I know it sounds good enough to get through a gig with the pedal board and I don't have to drag around a spare valve amp. If a speaker blows then I've modded a couple of the monitors with a switch that takes out the tweeter and basically gives me a 12" closed back speaker I can point at the audience and get by. NEVER GIG WITHOUT A BACKUP! It's meant to be entertainment, not making a noise is a different kind of fun....
You, guys, you're hitting hard on us, mere junkyes!!! I was waiting that video for so long. I have a 22 Caliber EH (the little bro of the M44), and it's a beast. Actually, I've purchased a M44, alredy. It has a kind of OD, very natural, and it's very powerfull. But, the problem is on the preamps you guys show on the video. Those ones and others like Kindmans, hell! Thank you for that so informative and enterteing show.
Man, how i love these Duesenberg Guitars... Wish i had the money to buy, and the talent to deserve to play them!
As always, great show guys, thank you so much! Was a lot of fun to watch!
Wanted to say thanks also, especially for your Episode on EQ-Pedals. That was a big breakthrough for me, finally showing me how to get a really great sound out of my 2004 LesPaul Studio, which I was struggeling with before, lots of changing PUs included!
Hope you'll come to germany at a point with a Live-Event! Cheers!
I've been waiting for this show ever since you had Simon Jarrett on to demo his pedals! That constable...into the Duncan power amp! And the tremolo+stereo verb.
Holy $***!!! Oh maannn!!!
Very nice! Thank you, chaps. I'd love a part II of this. Quilter Micro Block, and the other Vox minis. Fab.
Yeah! I do believe I suggested the 44 a while ago, glad to see (hear) it happened! Cheers guys!
Great video! This would have been a great opportunity to check out the Quilter amps. They sound great and are very small!!
I"m soooo glad you evil genius hacked that stereo rig at the end!!! I am definitely going to make that a set up with a stereo 2x12 cab :D
Another Class D option is the Mooer Baby Bomb 30 - a 30 watt amp in a mini pedal format.
Thats a power amp only, needs a preamp
So are magnum and seymour duncan.
The omission of Quilter is unfortunate. It is the one company that builds SS amps with the presence and punch of a tube amp, making them totally usable with a band.
+Michael Battista We're going to get hold of some. They're not common at all in the Uk (only one dealer in England). If they're as good as everyone says maybe we can help change that.
That Pedal Show Great, thanks guys. I really wanted to see a comparison between the 170 and a Quilter 101. Dan was off his stool for the 170 so it must be pretty good.
+1 on wanting to hear Quilter, preferably with a tube pre.
Hi guys. I have the MV50 AC and the MV50 Clean. The idea for the AC is to mimic the actual amp (ie the AC30) at 4ohms full 50 watts. The idea behind the Clean is to be used in the way you need to for this demo. You can turn the clean up to the full gain and volume and not get any breakup of the amp at all. It is clean with full headroom up to 4 ohms 50’watts flat out. Btw, I have tried the AC against my friends hand wired AC30 head with a 2x12 vox cab side by side comparison and it stack up pretty well. Both amps break up similarly and within the bounds of reason when it comes to volume in a small space were close. We were shocked how close it actually was to be honest. I bought both in a deal with a pair of the little 8” 8 ohm speakers for a stereo and wet wet dry home practice rig. Cost total £250. They’re loud enough to play a pub and compete with a drummer if you use a 4x12 at 4ohms, and together in stereo they’re very loud flat out. I also use them for recording - they produce an awesome sound at low levels and the headphone output on the back can be treated with speaker emulation impulses in the software - sounds very good. I have pre-amp pedals 1962x and Marshall Guv’nor and the sound literally changes to those well known Marshall amps or close enough for anyone to think they actually are. The difference between these amps and the power amps you tested them with is they already have a preamp so you can use ordinary pedals or preamps that can go into the front end. I’d definitely try the clean one if you do this again but test it at 4ohms to get the full 50W - you may have a different view of them. Great show as usual. Thanks.
Traynor put out a 25-watt pedal amp 7 or 8 years ago called the Quarter Horse. Sounds quite good, has channel switching, EQ, and some decent built-in effects. You can pick them up really cheap on the used market and Traynor stuff lasts forever.
Excellent show with so much to think about but now soooo wanting Seymour's tool and the Victory Deluxe.
I've been using a Quilter 101 as both my pre and power amp on my pedalboard for the better part of a year now. It performs great! And sound guys are always blown away by how loud and clear my little pedalboard rig is!
+CaptPostmod We're going to get some Quilter stuff in. It's pretty rare in the U.K., currently with only one dealer. Sounds like we could be missing out!
Thank you guys for making this. As always, abundantly helpful!!!!!!
Because we've already done amp-sized pedals-I'm looking at you, CE-1 and Univibe!
Quilter Micro Block 45 for the win! Takes pedals like a champ and is plenty loud and clean enough for any gig I'm likely to play.
So nice! Been planing to upgrade my rig to a wet dry wet rig with a class D stereo amp fed from the loop in to delay and reverb (think its going to be massive :-) . Now I know I'm on the right track. Thank you so much!
PS Been watching T.P.S since almost the beginning and it has not only made me understand things much better and made me start to think about different ways to build my sound and how to put it all together it has made me a better gitarrist to. Again thank you so much for your hard work and willingness to share. buying a t-shirt is the least I can do.
+SkitaEkul ah, that's awesome! Thanks so much :)
Class d solid state amps have been around for a while but we're lacking alot totally but they are getting better and better
Korg's (who have owned Vox for 25 years now) Nutube, is not really new technology at all. It's just a re-purposed vacuum fluorescent display (VFD), which used to be used on things like stereos, electric and microwave ovens, all sorts of displays. They are a true triode, but the anode is a phosporescent coating on the inside of the glass, and it functions in a similar way to a cathode ray tube with it's individual pixels, but in the VFD's case, rather than pixels, entire icons were silk-screened onto the glass - be it 7 segment displays, little clocks for the timer setting on your microwave, or a microphone for the karaoke setting on your stereo. These could be printed in different colours too.
However, this technology has fallen out of favour due to cost, bulk, and requirement for high voltage (like ~30-ish volts DC), where modern LCD displays are now cheaper, can show any image (not just the ones silkscreened), and will operate from 3.3VDC.
Korg can get the "Nutubes" for a good price because its a very mature product at the end of its lifetime, the manufacturing setup costs have long been amortised, and the factory (Noritake) would otherwise be closing down.
The Nutubes have been slightly redesigned for better amplification and lower microphonics (which weren't of concern in VFD applications), but they're not really the most practical of amplifier tubes. They don't socket, they're significantly more fragile (have a read of Korg's application notes about padding them in foam and suspending the circuitboard they're attacted to within the chassis), and they have some weird properties as amplifiers.
Still, interesting, but I don't think they'll actually make much of a splash in the market for those reasons, and will fade into obscurity.
+Greg Robinson Interesting, thanks for the clarification Greg. A few people have said we were too harsh on the MV. Mick here - I don't think we were at all. We say more that once that it's able to sound great, depending on the context. One thing we will always dislike is marketing, however. Or at least we'll ask how true the marketing claims can be. This thing can sound great in the right environment. Cheers!
I don't think you guys were too harsh either. Marketing doesn't need to make outrageous claims, if the product is good, it should stand on its own merits - which I think the MV did. No need to be silly about it!
Thanks guys!
Oh boy and the Royal too!
The best shows on the fridays👍
Dan's "oh yeahs" are the best! Lol
55:40 and it's the best guitar sound I've heard in yonks.
Any gig where I needed to be able to carry all my gear in one trip from the car and set up/tear down quickly, my rig was Telecaster > Vox Stomplab > EHX 44 > Epiphone 1x12.
Priorities!
Congrats on 100k - I've been around before the Horn for name drops, Ill check Harry out. That behind the scenes vid was dope.
Great video guys as always. Looking through the comments, there are just so many options for pedal sized amps nowadays that its impossible to satisfy everyone. I think this videos was a good introduction. Thanks for posting.
+Abram Treadwell That's all it was intended to be. Cheers Abram!
I have paired the EHX 44 Magnum with my Musicman HD 150, as well as my Mesa Boogie Nomad 100.
31:02 ACE VENTURA! that's what that is from THANK GOD! i hate when you know some thing but cannot remember where you know it from.BUT man it fells good when you put it together!
Can't wait to watch all of it! I've been thinking of buying a magnum 44 and leaving it in my gig toolbox as insurance.
I really hope you ever try the ISP Stealth, that is documented as Class H !! I have one along with an AMT SS-20 tube based preamp and I am super happy, but would like to know what you think of the Stealth maybe on a second episode and how it compares against the Seymour Duncan for example.
totally need this thanks guys! I'm part of the worship music community and the trend is to go ampless and I cannot afford a Kemper. I'm one step closer to the Vox MV50AC
Yeah, you guys should totally review those Matrix Amplification power amps. I'd be very interested to hear your thoughts.
I loved when you guys did the shoegaze show and hope to see more (gear centric) genres covered. Doom metal, 80s New Wave/pop, etc. would be so cool.
I'd be interested to see this one done again with the new "The Amp" by Milkman. Looks very promising. And it would be good to replace the mv50 AC with the clean for the increased headroom.
Yeah, let’s do that!
Yes! Please do. I just bought one
I’d like to see this one done again, so they could actually research the product before loosely reviewing
@@ThatPedalShow I think it would be especially interesting to compare Milkman's "The Amp" (real tube in preamp stage) and Bluguitar's "Amp1" (real tube in power stage). What effect does that tube have in each stage?
I tried the clean with the MV50, I went for the AC because it was louder, and louder with a clean(ish) signal. The Clean is a superb Jazz amp, but if you just want a loud power stage, then I don't know if I would have gone for the Vox stuff... On occasions I just use a boost pedal alone and the amp will do the rest (for Blues/Rock gigs) so it made sense for me.
I think the Vox is amazing for the money. I use mine for home recording or when I can't be bothered to lug my Fender Twin Reverb to a practice room. They could do with making a version with an effects loop though.
The empress reverb has built in cab simulation. So you could perhaps run the pedalboard from there to a pa for a giggable non-amp setup.
Great video guys, but PLEASE do a video with the MV50 Clean. That thing is a stunning pedal platform and I ran it into an Ashdown 4x12 guitar cab at my local rehearsal space and it absolutely sang. Really would recommend!
+SoulIsTheGoal Yeah, we're going to get one. Sounds interesting...
I second this. MV50 Clean is pretty amazing.
SoulIsTheGoal check this out. I play the at a small gig. Have the mv50 clean, overdrive in the front. The speaker is a jensen vintage, 50w at 4 ohm. At this gig the volume is at about 2.5!! With full band, and it still cutd through! I am lovi g my little amp 😁
I was able to demo one, out of the Vox MVs, the clean is BY FAR the most interesting one. It's tone is really good, and as mentioned, makes for a small but great pedal platform.
The Seymour Duncan sounds ace. Make sense, as it is like 3 times more expensive.
You guys could loop the v40 preamp with the g2 and switch between the various power amps! That would have been interesting!!
Wow I knew English and Sussex cricket legend Matt Prior was a talented man, but I didn't know that he is also an ace Guitarist and touring with Bonnie Tyler. Perhaps you can get him on the show to talk about scoring a century at Lords and the nuances of his pedalboard as well. That would be ace :)
Gavin Badcock great idea, and then Mark Butcher to play some of his twee acoustic pop...
It was interesting to see Dan's struggle throughout the video. Not to say any of the pedal amps sounded awful, but there was obviously something about them that was off putting. I think you both touched on it about midway through. Perspective. Interesting video though. Thanks for mixing it up a bit on this video. Always entertaining.
+Matt Herrley Yep, he was totally uninspired by pretty much all of these sounds. That's how it goes sometimes, and we do our best to be honest about that. Cheers!
Revisit this topic? Quilter Superblock, laney loud pedal, ampman, Bluguitar.
Thanks for this video! I've been interested in seeing the EHX in action!
