Needed an actual demo of the amp.
A lot of talking.
I get that you're talking about the news, not the actual guitar, but the tone is very definitive instead of let's wait and see. Also, that opening statement in the lines of "it's not a Strat, it's not a Tele, therefore I don't like it and it's rubbish" is a bit silly. PRS already made a Strat, and that's the Silver Sky. The NF3 is something else. It's it's own thing, yes kinda like a strat, but not one. Different pickups, different body, different neck, different scale, different controls. And they can't just whack these pickups on a Silver Sky, because that's a signature guitar made to JM's preferences. So they made a new guitar. I'll be honest, I like strats but i think the classic strat sound is too thin, so I'm looking fwd to trying one of these. The metallic orange one... 😁
Bought an all black one in 2023 for my 40th birthday. I was looking for a Jr vibe but PRS is my brand favorite.
There are soooooooooooo many chorus pedals. Young players I encourage you to try all of the cheapest stuff available now. There have been sooooooo many copy’s of the same circuit since the introduction of the pedal. There’s no magic mojo in dates, dashes and made in Japan ! Just play/try what is available. People will argue 2 knobs is better than three on the same circuit with a tone knob added🤪 The hype is more cork sniffing/my stuff is more expensive and rare and you can’t have this sound without this pedal BS. Tone chasing leads to less productive music experience. I’m not doging this pedal, it sounds good and that is a fact. But seriously, don’t believe hype and spend a fortune to find your sound. I’ve played this game over 40 years I’ve gambled on some vintage gear some were wins….. most were utterly disappointing. After trying over 30 + chorus pedals I’ve stuck with my first cheap Arion chorus pedal. 4 knobs instead of 2 = more tonal options for me. Find your SOUND, not someone’s opinion on how it should sound.
It's been the only constant on my board since 1997. Enough said.
When we hear comments like this it just confirms the pedals legacy further!
There seems to be an awful lot of nonsense talked about guitar gear, but I do think the CE-2 genuinely excellent!
I had one. It was a great guitar. Loved the fat 50s profile neck. I sold it because it didn’t have a tone knob and the original PRS SE logo in bold on the headstock was not too attractive. If it had a tone control and Paul’s signature on the headstock it would have been a keeper!!For a p90 guitar I have a Yamaha Revstar and it’s absolutely outstanding!! It’s a keeper! 👍
I completely see where you come from with that Jay, I do wish it had a tone knob for sure. The Revstar guitars are great glad you found something that fit what you wanted more!
I had a Korina one and loved it. But I sold it for like over $1k and couldn't say no to that... but I do miss it. It was badass~!
Most of us have a piece of gear we still wish we had. Maybe one day another one will make its way around to you again!
Got one as a graduation gift from my dad. It is, to this day, my favorite guitar to play. The thing is phenomenal. I think he paid about $300 for it at the time.
Completely underrated guitar!
Payed $600 for mine. I thought a bit high, but totally worth it. Better tuning stability and headstock design than Gibson or Epiphone. Beefier, more simple bridge. I put the PRS locking tuners on it. It's perfect other than that stupid old SE logo. Only piece of gear I'd never sell.
Glad to hear you found a piece of gear you bond so well with Matt! We need to get one in our hands again here soon!
It was only made for a few years. Mine is a 2009. Then, they did a limited run in 2017 (I think U.K. only) with the signature logo on the headstock. I'd love to find one of those. I have no idea why this model wasn't more popular.
We weren’t aware of the 2017 limited run. That’s something to keep our eyes out for also. Thanks for the info!
too true, too true. I def play it safe because of this...lets get wild in 2025!! :)
Let’s do it!!!
for my board i like to have a guitar cable.
I have the waza one and I dig it. Subtle and warm!
All of the Waza pedals we have tried we have liked and been impressed by!
I picked up a ce-2 about 2 months ago in a bundle of pedals. It's not the original long dash, but the model after. Was planning to sell them all off, but the CE-2 i couldn't let leave. I don't like a heavy handed chorus, and the CE-2 is just right. It does still have a slight chorus, or at least a widening effect with both knobs turned down. Hadn't tried that before, but its pretty delicious. -- For a good EP pre-amp, check out the Chase Tone Secret Preamp.
I think the I/O aspect of the stomp is undeniably great. Works well as an all in one, but is also awesome for integration into a board. If someone doesn’t want to go the multeffects route in general I get it, but if you can get adjusted to the tweaking of things it’s great at so many things.
No one can deny that the HX Stomp is the benchmark for similar pedals/modelers. Few pedals are so beloved by guitar players across all genres. Thanks for tossing your thoughts on it Tommy!
The answer depends on what type of guitar you’re playing, for what purpose you’re playing, the genre of music, and the other equipment you might be using. Acoustic Steel String? Nylon? Electric? Mic’ed amp or DI? Type of pickups? Size of the amps and type of speakers? Playing live or recording? You get the point. I think clean is likely more versatile for both acoustic and electric - even without pedals, the right clean amp can still deliver a variety of tones. Paired with pedals, you’re off to the races. Does a dirty amp really clean up as precisely and have the same versatility? Might depend on the amp, but probably not. It’s never going to clean up to the same degree, not even with the help of an EQ or backing the volume down. Maybe you should test this out to get a more definitive answer. Everyone should do this! I’ll happily accept any gear you no longer want after deciding it’s inferior at the conclusion of your experimentation! 😉😂
Friedman amps have wayyyy more note clarity WHILE cutting through all that gain… but I get what you’re saying. Jubilee would be the best route because of the clean channel.
Lemmo just played one on Norms Rare guitars. It's aist see.
Agreed, the DK 10 works great as a plug and play practice amp. Great value considering the features and tone. It punches well above ...
Totally agree!
65 DRRI with pedals all day for me. more versatile and works well at low volumes. I use an always on diamond compressor to give more of a cranked feel to it and it works great with the KoT, Lightspeed, ODR-1 etc! yeah I dig uncle larry!
We love the 65 DRRI here as well. At the right gig you can use this as a clean platform or a dirty starting point too. Uncle Larry is one of the best!
Bern playing since 1985. As much as I want (and in the past have tried) to start clean, I find I have better control over dynamics starting dirty out the gate and using the volume/tone/pickup selector to back it off if needed to get cleaner. I don't use pedals lol.
We love to do this when we have the right gig/gear. Sometimes we get thrown in unknown scenarios for gigs and that’s when the clean platform steps in more.
Got the Halo. Sent it back the next day for a Brig. It sounds wonderful but too much going on with the Halo. Can't wait for my Brig!
Completely understand where you’re coming from Adam. The Halo is great but you do have to dive into the operating system for a bit to understand it. The Brig is more straight forward. Both are great pedals but sounds like you will be very happy with the Brig! Congrats!
Pass. I paid full price for it, and now I just use it as a reverb. Unless you have a very particular use case for the violin-backgound thing (which sounds kind of fake to me), it's not worth the price. The reverb sound is actually pretty darn good though.
Interesting to hear someone that has turned on this pedal after having it a while! Thanks for letting us hear what you thought!
@@tonebros6533 It's probably just the same reason as my man said in the video... I just don't really play that kind of music. If I was playing in a contemporary worship band every week maybe I'd be saying something different. I'm much more of a classic blues guy. I saw that Anderton's video a while back and completely fell for it.
i think you should at least be clear on the feature set before bothering with these discussions. it has rate and depth.
Absolutely a gas for me. I love this pedal and couldn’t go a Sunday without it.
yes, demos suck (because they are never really truthful). your idea with just talking head is interesting - but it lacks something to make it really stand out
That is our point with demos. We are always working on improving our episodes both our full length and short form like this one. Hope to see you stick around and continue to add to the Tone Bros!
The dude can still use his Tweed deluxe on stage, why not just get something like a two notes torpedo captor x? If all his bandmates are going direct?
The Two Notes is a great call. He has considered it along with an OX Box. Time will tell what he settles with. Im sure we will be making further episodes talking about it.
don't know about other guys, but this is a perfect plexi, yes I use HB attenuator but the sound is like a million bucks... i use a single marshall cab with vintage g12-t75 uk made celsetion and it's perfect.... of course I play hair metal and shred, and some smooth jazz.
Glad you found an amp that you connect with. When you say you use a HB attenuator are you talking about the Harley Benton attenuator? Just curious because we have heard good things about it. Thanks for adding to the conversations Scott!
Frame down a little or zoom out more ceiling than ppl
In newer videos this gets corrected. Thanks
Too much yada yada
I own the SV20H - works amazingly with the Fryette PowerStation. IVE ONLY just 1 year on found the (nearly) perfect setting for my Hendrix tone guitar playing. Dialling in the right tone takes time with this amp! This amp with 2x12 greenbacks = vintage plexi tone - I love it! The Fryette allows me to play this at bedroom / TV volume. You must pair it with a reactive load attenuator for low volume at home playing. For live playing a Harley Benton attenuator may just do the trick- its gotta be played loud to sound good with cheaper attenuators (ironically) - shouldn't annoy your band too much.
I JUST sold mine last week. I had put a host of Mullards into it and had it like that for the last nearly 4 years, and it was going through a cab with 55hz greenbacks... was Glorious. That said, I HAD to run it only with a Freyette Power Station. even at 5watt is is TOO loud at home to crank. With the Power Station 100% cranked ALL THE TIME. I ONLY sold it to get an amplified nation... but I am already missing that Plexi sound. The downside with the SV20H was no master volume... i will say that when I took the Mullards out to revert to stock tubes... man what a difference. Mullards ALL THE WAY
Hate to hear your missing it but, sometimes gear has to leave to let other gear in. Mullards would make a huge difference and those 55hz greenbacks didn’t hurt either! I’m sure you enjoying the Amplified Nation. Thanks for adding your personal experience Scott!
I have the SV20 and SC20, and I’ve played the Jubilee. The SC20 doesn’t break up until about 3 or 4 on the volume knob, and by that point you’re twice as loud as your Deluxe which I also own so can speak about with credibility. These mini Marshalls are LOUD!
Good to hear a personal account of these amps! Thanks for the info.
Get yourself something that’s actually wired on a strip board. It’s 60-70’s Blackface and Silverface Fenders for me!
We love us some vintage Fenders and have some but these Marshalls look pretty awesome too!
Y'all know that the TM Super-Reverb does in fact have the same exact speakers as the tube version-- right? Being a long-time tube amp player, at first I dismissed the Tone Master line... then I played a Blonde Deluxe with the Celestion "Neo" speaker; loved it! Not exactly the same, but close enough that when I'm playing my mind is not focused on the amp being digital-- I'm simply enjoying the sound that's coming from it. That amp set me down a course looking for a TM Super-Reverb, which is how I found your channel ;) The tube version of the Super is one of my all-time favorite amps, but not something that's at all practical for me (not to mention my very bad back...). Then I discover there's a Super in the Tone Master line-- 1) Light weight, 2) Power attenuator, 3) XLR/IR, 4) Sounds great, 5) Same speakers as the tube version-- and only 36-lbs! Those are the features that will enable me to own-- and use-- a Super Reverb. So yeah, I totally understand the value of the Tone Master line. Regarding pedals into the TM, check out the videos Dave Simpson has done; that guy makes these amps sound fantastic ;) Anyway-- enjoyed your video!
Welcome to the channel! We are glad you stumbled upon it. The Tone Master line is such a great line of amps with features many players need/want. We will check out Dave’s video. Thanks for the insight! We hope you stick around and we hear from you again!
People talking about sound...
NAMM is way more than guitars...
Talking wothout demonstration. Genius 🤭
I’m new to your channel and I think this is a great format for talking about gear. More honest than simply shilling. Hope to see more
That’s exactly what we are trying to do. Honest non biased gear talk. We have will have new episodes each and every week. Thanks for stopping by our channel!
It’s like a Carbon Copy Deluxe.
I am jealous. but as visitors to Nashville this week my wife and I saw Guthrie at the Underdog last Monday night
I’m sure in the future you will have more opportunities to catch them together. I’m sure that Guthrie was great last Monday. The underdog is such a cool venue and vibe too! Thanks for stopping by our channel!
@@tonebros6533 We spent 4 great days there. My wife said the highlight was seeing Guthrie, going to the Ryman and going to the Jack Daniels tour. I am reviewing the video that I took at the Underdog. It came out great!
1) kemper is making a mistake 2) modelers are great for us who don’t have the budget for tube amps. The death of modelers would sucks for many many guitarists.
You’re right Dylan. We understand that modelers are great for players in many cases. We need to do an episode explaining our stance on this subject better.
Stage, Rack and Head all have free updates. Only Player has two paid updates that expand this small box into an almost full-fledged Kemper. This was known when it was launched. So a lot of talk about something that has been known for a long time.
I've got an NF3 for review arriving today. The reason I asked for that vs a silver sky is because I'm not the biggest fan of a traditional strat single coil sound but I like the overall feel and aesthetics of these PRS "strat" guitars. The NF3 delivers the aesthetics (that orange paint job model looks killer but unfortunately wasn't the one I was sent) along with a noiseless and beefier sound than what you'd get from a strat or silver sky without straying too much further from the traditional formula. I've been told by a few people who have them that the pickups sound like noiseless P90's. I think for the player who likes the look and feel of a strat but wants just a slight twist on the look/sound, the NF3 is the answer.
That makes sense. The thought of it sounding closer to a noiseless P90 is intriguing for sure!
you can put a set list on your Canvas Tuner.....
Sounds like Ross Morris back in the day distributor of marshalls because Jim marshall told me he could not wait for that terrible contract to expire they were bleeding him dry this was in 74 I called marshall in England complaing my amp and cab were stuck in salt Lake city for a month after ii payed for it in hollywood and they put jim on and I had my amp 4 days later surreal talking to the man himself cheers !
That’s great to hear! Jim was a nice and gracious guy for sure!
I've played thru a couple of the 1987x heads and tho verry good they are not at all like my 1968 50 plxi head and mine is bone stock not to brittle but crunchy and almost as loud as my 100 w of same just my experience with the reissued plxi cheers !
You’re right about them not being the same as your 1968 head, from what I understand the 1987x reissue was based on the 1971 metal panel models. The bright cap can make the reissues brittle and as I’m sure you know the V1 tube really can completely change the feel and sound of the amps. Thanks for adding your experience into the conversation Jerry!
You forgetting modeled like the UA stuff or iridium, acs1 etc
It is true that those models won’t have any tuners. We should have mentioned those too. Good point
I still always prefer using a stand alone tuner pedal but each to there own !
We don’t disagree but what is it that makes you prefer the stand alone tuner? Familiarity and accuracy are big factors for sure.
I don't think people think of it like tools for different jobs. I have a Polytune on my pedalboard, and Peterson clip on tuner for just quick tuning if I'm going through my guitars for storage purposes to keep a proper tension on the neck, and I have another Peterson strobostomp pedalboard for doing tech work and setting up guitars/Bass. I always use the Peterson for accuracy. The Peterson is easier for me to see and use as well. A nice thing with the Peterson pedal is you can run the buffer or turn it off too. Just the way I use my gear.
This is a great point and good way to look at them Charles! As a side note on the Peterson tuners the new Peterson Mini has a good switchable buffer in it. Might be worth a look at it if you haven’t yet.
@tonebros6533 I like my Peterson Strobostomp has the switchable buffer, and my clip on Peterson is good for quick tuning around the house. I might replace my Polytune with another Peterson full size pedal on my board. I've had the polytune longer, but prefer the Peterson by far. Nothing against Polytune, this is a first generation one I've had for a about 20 years or so. Just a preference.
