Just got one as a present for my job (working with autistic young adults) because I’m moving to a new (and larger room) so I can combine working on the computer an working with live instruments. Today I tried it out, sounded “mean and dirty” but even better: I can connect by bass guitar and my electric guitar together on this unit, play them simultaneously and both sound good!
I looked up videos on this amp because I just saw a Peavey half stack with that same Standard amp head for sale. $150 on offer up. Sounds good to me. Cool video, cool playing.
I used to use these in my earliest bands I was in as my first amplifier stack. I used it all wrong and treated it as if it was a PA head powering my Digitech RP-100 multi-effect/crappy amp modeling/all in one foot pedal (circa 2001). It was a struggle to keep everything stable and subjectively sounding 'good' and now I understand why. It was meant to be a guitar amp, I'm looking at the schematic and listening to this demo and I realize that I would have gotten more of a neutral sound feeding that Digitech through the front end of a AB-763 Fender Bandmaster/Twin Reverb/ect than the Peavey; there's more advanced frequency specific filtering going on with the Standard amp which would rip apart the digitally generated signal as the volume increased. My adult self would never be caught dead playing with that chorus/delay/fizz thing I was going for back then, but if I were, I'd buy the PA or Bass version of these amps.
Awesome job as always, wrote you days ago asking your opinion about the Crate Gx130 and now I'm not sure if should get this one instead...or who knows?
Cool....great sound
Lovely stuff! Your playing brings Barn Owl to mind, especially The Conjurer.

Just grabbed one of these alongside a Peavey 1x15. Sounds killer running a bass through this thing.

Great video. What's the intro/outro music?
Randy Rhoades used this in quite riot
Shit, i can get it for 175 canadian right now. I should jump on it.
The distortion sounds a little buzzy bug the clean sound great!
How many ohms must the speaker cabcabinet be?
Do you think it'll work with emg hz passive (alexi laiho signature set) mic? 🤔
Cool. What's the bumper music?
Have you ran any fuzzes thru it yet? If so, how'd it sound?
