Great video. You do so many demos, it's nice to see what your go to amps are.
Thanks for all the great videos and playing ideas!
Enjoyed the info, thanks for sharing
Great video Shawn! Didn’t find the video boring at all, think it’s one of my favorites!! Thanks for all you do 👏🏼👏🏼
Thanks so much!!
Loved it Shawn! I am a complete gear nerd so I love videos talking about and showing gear!
Thanks so much for watching!!
Thanks Shawn! Such presentations are absolutely fantastic, certainly not boring. And perhaps one day you will introduce us to these beautiful guitars?
Thanks so much! I'll look into maybe doing a rundown of my guitars!
Lovely to see what we get to hear and WHY! Thanks for sharing Mr T.
Thanks so much!
enjoyed seeing all the nice amps.. thanks Shawn!
Thanks for watching!!
Great selection of amps and cabs. I am certain that is only scratching the surface and thanks for sharing. I have learned so much in the last few years from your channel, appreciate you taking the time to share your experiences and gear knowledge. Those Revv Time vids lead me to looking in the Revv gear and purchasing a D20, a 2x12 Revv cab with WGS Vet 30 and ET 90 and your signature Tilt OD. Some of my favourite gear for sure. I could be partial to them being from Canada, but good gear has no borders. It would be great and very interesting to us gear nerds out here to see a tour of your entire setup. Check out the Rabbit Hole Dareringer bourbon, finished in Sherry Casks. Cheers man!
Thanks so much!! Glad you're digging the REVV stuff! I may at some point do a new rundown of my complete setup but I've done one with Premier guitar that covers quite a bit.
Nice gear rundown for the guitar nurds in all of us! Thanks Shawn!
Thanks so much!
That is so cool ! Your taste is impeccable !
Thanks so much!
Shawn I saw you play years ago using your Divided by 13 FTR 37. I wasn’t familiar with the brand and dove in researching the amps. Your tone was just brilliant, which led me to the ccc 9/15, which I have today. Being able to select between 6V6s and EL84s allows me the best of two worlds. The amps are so well made, dependable and sound killer. Thanks for inspiring me to track Fred and his amps down.
Awesome! Yeah Fred Taccone builds a good amp for sure!!
Thanks Shawn, very interesting and informative 👍Any thoughts on the Mesa Boogie Lonestar Special 1×12
Mesa builds really good amps but I don't have any experience with the Lonestar amp.
Not boring at all. Very cool! Would definitely like a tour of sounds and applications 🤘. What speakers are in the Bogner and which is mic’d? Cheers!
Thanks! That Bogner cab is loaded with Cele V 30's.
That was amazing, thank you! Could you take a deeper dive into the amps that don’t get a lot of time on your channel like the /13s and Red Plate. Even better would be examples of how and when you use all of them.
Thanks so much for the suggestion!
Dude... gear shit is always awesome.... never apologize for having sweet tools of the trade. Always enjoy your work.
Thanks so much!! Glad you enjoyed it.
thank you for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
Really enjoyed watching this video! I mostly use my Revv G20 for playing and recording. What is your favorite IR Cabinet to use with it?
Thanks so much! I pretty much always use the REVV 4x12 with a Royer 121/Shure SM57 Dyn IR.
This was awesome to hear
Thanks for watching!
The suhr Bella is a great amp, we have one at the studio and it gets used a lot. Kinda surprised no 3rd power amps in the lineup, my wooly coats has been a really great amp, especially live where it can open up. Fun vid, thanks
Yeah, the 3rd Power amps are really great. At some point, I'll end up demoing one on my channel.
Love the video and seeing all the amps you like. I have a question for you Shawn. In light of Robbie Robertson passing, did you ever meet him and havea chance to play/jam with him? What a great talent, from Bob Dylan's lead guitarist, to "The Band-so many hits (The Weight) to his fantastic solo career (Broken Arrow) Did anyone from REV V amps meet him? **RIP**
Yeah, that was sad news indeed. I've never met Mr. Robertson. You might bring it up in the chat during a Gear and Beer live stream. Maybe one of the boys crossed paths with him.
No apologies needed. I always like to hear and respect your views and recommendations. What a bountiful blessing of gear. Maybe you could demonstrate your favorite, blew your mind, clean, crunch and gain tones? (what amp and guitar got you there. So not from each amp but from your collection.)
That's a great suggestion! Thanks so much!
I'd like to know what the main "like" or "specific" job for each indidual amp, what would make you choose one over another for a project. Maybe a small demo of the main likes of each amp
Right on thanks for the suggestion!
I will gladly store any unnecessary gear 👍🏽
Haha, thanks man!!
@@ShawnTubbs Derek has location information for shipping, I’ll be patiently awaiting a tracking number. 😂
I enjoyed seeing all these amps and hearing about the specific uses. What Speaker is in the D25 and in the Bogner cab that is miked?
Thanks for watching! The D25 comes standard with a Celestion V30. My Bogner 2x12 has Celestions V30s.
That Revv amp plugged in with no pedals on a David Crosby album…… mad respect. Keep on, watch every post for real stuff like this…
Thanks so much!
Nice tour! Do you ever bring your own rig(s) to sessions? If so, what’s the first amp getting loaded in?
Thanks! It depends on the session. For the most part, I'll bring 3 or 4 amps along. The Bella and D25 are most likely to go.
What an awesome amp collection. Do you have any advice on how to buy some of these, and hide them from my wife? 🙂
doh. Im looking for a pedal platform combo - power isnt of concern as I have a Fryette Power station so I can up a low volume or decrease a loud one if needed. On the list. Revv D25, dr Z Max 18, something from /13, Two rock studio sig, Sure Bella, Matchless Lightening probably, possibly DC30.... you have half of those lol.
Great vídeo! How would you compare the Revv dynamis 7-40, that you have reviewed a while ago, to the rest of the Revv amps you currently own ? ( especially the D20, D25 and the generator 7-40 )… Thank you so much for your videos.
Thanks! The 7-40 has quite a bit more headroom being a 40-watt amp over the D20 and D25. The clean channel on the 7-40 is a bit more "modern" sounding as a clean channel whereas the D20 and D25 are a bit more vintage in nature.
Thanks! Great content.
Do you ever run stereo of dry/wet or any other combinations?
I had a WDW rig back in the day for a minute and I loved it but it was problematic on sessions because of the input allocation for the tracking engineer. That being said WDW sounds AWESOME!!! I also had a big stereo rack rig and it was killer but I ended up, as big rack systems were being "phased out" for smaller setups with pedals going the mono route. I'll revert to rack set up I'm sure, at some point. ;)
@@ShawnTubbs I am currently experimenting with different amps in a stereo setup with midi control. Trying to do programchanges with my Dynamis and Dynacord Reference.
I have been searching for a REVV midi setup/tutorial for dummies online with no luck. I find it kind of wonky compared to the 35 year old Dynacord, where midi is a breeze.
I’d like to hear you demo/compare the Divided By 13 amps.
I enjoyed the tour- thanks!
Thanks so much!!
Wow, what an amazing collection of amps! Questions: which would you take to a small club gig or jam, which one to a medium-sized venue gig, which one to an arena gig? (Or would the answer be the same since the amp could be mic'ed and you'd be using in-ear monitors?)
Thanks for the question. On in ears, I've got way more flexibility and don't worry about headroom. I would be most apt to use my D25 or the Bella.
Great collection! Is the Revv D20 compatible with both 120V & 220V inputs?
Thanks!! You have to order the D20 in each respective voltage.
This is so cool!
Thanks for watching!
You have a fabulous collection of amps there Shawn. It would interesting to know what you would hang on to if you had to whittle things down to say a couple.
That's a good question. I tend to lean toward pedal platform amps so I would be looking at the FTR, D25, and Bella.
Interesting, thanks for sharing!@@ShawnTubbs
Can you do a comparison with the dynamis and the bella?
hI Shawn,on the fence between the Revv 25 or Bad Cat Blackcat,which do you prefer?
I really enjoyed the walk through of these amps. Would love to hear the Badger in stereo with a D20. Quick question do you blend the 57 & 121 in your daw as separate tracks or do you blend them together before the hit your interface? Thank you!
Thanks so much! The Badger would sound cool indeed with the D20. Whenever I mic up, for the most part, I use the summing amp in my Chandler TG2. I really like how punchy the Royer 121 and 57 combo sounds through a great analog summing preamp. I will on occasion split the two mics out.
Thanks for the insight Shawn, really appreciate it! @@ShawnTubbs
Shawn, what do you think of the Two Rock amps like the Classic Reverb?
Great amps. I'd love to own one.
For your D25, what speakers are you using? Revv offers either V30 or creambacks...
Still can't see the D20 with shell casing available to buy?
Comparing them would be great.
Thanks! I'll look into that!
Do you still have the Morgan dual 20?
Thanx Shawn... do any of these have pentode pre's and what's your opinion of this (?)
Do you mean EF 86-style preamp tubes? The only amp I currently have that utilizes that tube is my FTR37 on the "clicker" channel. That channel is similar to the Matchless DC 30 which is also EF86. That being said, I think Fred Taccone is using a 5879 now. My experience with Pentode Preamps is based only on amps I've played which tend to be voiced more British in my opinion.
@@ShawnTubbs That's Eggs Ackly what I mean...
Thanx mate
I’m curious, I haven’t seen a Soldano amp in your vids. Is it just not in any of your playing styles?
Which interface you use ? The ox itself is an interface or just attenuates the signal ? Best Pf
I use an older Apogee Quartet interface. The OX isn't really an interface. It's a reactive load with an attenuator and UA IR's.
@ShawnTubbs What’s your favorite Mesa Boogie Amp? Thanks
MK II C+ for sure! Thanks for watching!
Hey Shawn…
If you were stuck on an Island…. Which one if you had no pedals?…
Which one if you had a box of pedals?…👍🏻👊🏻
The D25 with pedals. Probably the 120 with no pedals as it's a 4-channel with dedicated EQ.
Nice dramatic pause after "They were talking about Derek's Johnson..."
It was smaller than I expected.
Haha!
@@PaulCooksStuff Haha!
Can I get the new shell case for my Revv D20?
That is what want to know.
We are working on it. We need to have custom corner pieces sorted out and then we'll be good to go. Not sure honestly what the timeline on that is.
how do the D20, G20 and the D25 compare to each other? I've been looking at the G20; but as a Blues player- I'll never use all that gain. What I have seen is it seems more versatile then the D20.
The D20 and D25 are very similar. The D25 has a bit more headroom than the D20 and is voiced a little brighter. Both amps are based on the "Dynamis" which is a bit more vintage in nature and both are really great pedal platform amps. The G20 is more modern sounding. The clean channel is based on the "Generator" series. The G20 clean channel does take pedals well, but the D20 and D25 are better as a platform in my humble opinion. The G20 also has a second channel that is based on the purple or 3rd channel of the Generator. It's a modern high-gain channel that sounds great but I don't think it would be a fit for you as a blues player.
Question: Are you the Shawn Tubbs who played guitar in The Violet Burning? If so, I met and talked with you in Phoenix about amps about 33 years ago. You said that you had no clue about your rack system or your amp setup. My, how times have changed, yezz..?
If you are not... well... disregard the ponderings of an addle-pated old grunch. lol
No, that was me. Haha!
@@ShawnTubbs I thought so!! Good on ya, brother - I subscribed. 😀
@@tommyapocalypse6096 Thanks so much!!
Are the revv and the be100deluxe that far apart?
Yeah, those amps are really different. The REVV doesn't really copy any circuit in particular and has a very unique and modern sound. The Friedman BE 100 DLX really is a Marshall-style amp with Davids's magic added.
Here in the US, we spell it “favorite”…… 😜
Canadians are weird!! 😁
Cool. No Mesas at all. I don’t care personally I just thought that was interesting considering Shawn’s history with them.
Yeah, I played Mesa exclusively for years, and then Matchless, and then D13. All great amps! I'd love to have a Mesa MK 2 C+.
Good Lord man! Those are just the amps in that room? I have 2 questions: a) Do you have a large human being that scheps them for you? I'm got a hernia just thinking about it. b) Does your wife have a sister with the same level of understanding? Granted, I'm just a schmuck, not a pro. 😂😂 If I was a first call guitarist, I'm sure I would get more tools. Serious question. If you could only have one of those amps, which one would it be and why?
Haha, well I'm very lucky indeed to have all of those amps. If I could only have one I'd go the pedal platform route so the D13 FTR, D25, and Suhr Bella would be great as stand-alone amps.
I just had a good joke-ing truth pop into my head while watching you do this really good amp walkthrough and your thoughts. The joke is : You kind of have to be biased when you play a tube amp. Dadum. Cha :-)
Haha, good one!
