This amp sounds so good. Like many have mentioned, the Highwind Direwolf would push this thing to a digustingly sick level. I know Brandon Ellis and Ben Eller are really really digging theirs, and it's my favorite OD I've used by far.
They are very clear on the web site...it makes it wider. Measure the outside of the cabinet and you'll see it stretches just a bit when engaged...but seriously..."Wide is an overall voicing change which affects both channels. Channel 1 will receive more push as well as chimier(sic) highs & fat lows. Channel 2 will predominantly experience an extension in the low end."
Your own cab sauce sounded great. Thanks for this man, the best overview of the G20 so far. I was after a Helix rack but may get this instead. I already have a Dark Terror and D-moll so another (mostly) analog amp seems a bit pointless though 🤔
I wish it didn't have the built in torpedo. I just want an affordable revv amp with a purple channel, but this thing costs just as much, if not more than a 5150III 50w 😔
I don't think the Torpedo part adds that much to the tag. The internal load maybe, but I think generally this is more versatile than a 5150. No fizz and a better clean channel + it really has everything a bedroom player needs. Maybe get a 5150 with a purple Revv pedal if you don't need any of the other stuff.
Can I play directly to my audio interface/computer and my speaker cab at the same time? Or if I connect it to my AI/computer would I only be able to run it through monitors connected to my computer?
What wave of friend is better? I guess the rev g20, that this great prs mt15, although I suppose that for the price it will be normal to be superior, don't you think?
I must admit that I am STILL baffled by how metal guys STILL don't understand the concept of a pedal platform, when I see them running distortion pedals into the amp's clean channel all the time. Seriously. What is the point of having a 5150+ when you always have it on the clean channel, and all your distortion is coming from a pedal? If you do that, then get a crystal clean Fender amp. If you are going to use a high-gain amp, then all your gain needs to be from the amp. This is not rocket science.
Well... distortion preamps sound amazing nowadays. Example would be the revv g3 and g4. Horizon devices apex and precision drive. Diezel herbert. What is wrong with running any of those into your clean channel?
100 percent agree with all this. I have a 6505 that I bought 10 years ago. I run a precision drive almost always on into a g3 on the clean channel. I also love my Precision into my distortion channel of the 6505. Imho rn though the fortin plugins are my jam.
To me the They’re great in their own ways but the Revv G is not as difficult to get a great tone. You don’t necessarily need a boost pedal with the Revv but it’s essential for dialing in the Dual Rectifier. Imho
Everyone is asking for a Tube Screamer with this but you should try out the Highwind Direwolf with this and/or all your amp reviews. Brandon Ellis and Uncle Ben Eller both have one, I think. It's one of the sickest OD's!!
What's really clever here is that they didn't make the channels footswichable, so this little monster wouldn't compete with the big ones in a live application.
Unrelated to the Revv, sorry but I gotta know, what's the color of that guitar? Looks silver, just wondering what the specific name is if you know. Also, that G20 sounds crushing!!!
Amps should have less low mid at low volume and less sharp presence up loud. I hate when they become razor sharp when turned up! Hopefully this is not like that.
1300 dollars and I still need pedals??? Are you playing thru any physical cabinets? Aggression levels-Didn't notice any change in tone. And how do you change your cabinets? Foot Switch? Bass tone at mid position is "warble". Are there any vids with this so called Torpedo software? Your statement-"Answer to our metal prayers"? Maybe to you, but not to me. All the vids I have seen and reviews read are all "metal". What happened to a "Blues type of Crunch". Basically want something to plug into my Scarlett Focusrite 2i12 Only thing I have to find is a place that sells one of these...and would let me return it. Thanks for the vid.
We make them in Canada :) Lots of cheaper ones are made in China etc. - which is fine, great way to get good value! Awesome time to be a guitarist on a budget. We're a small company and we could never compete with the massive companies making $200 modeling combo amps etc. so we just keep them made in Canada by us and focus on making the best gear we can.
@@RevvAmps I just got my G20 and I love it. The included cab sims are phenomenal, though I did load up an Engl XXL 4x12 as well. Keep up the good work, and thanks for making my decision to downsize from a Dual Rectifier an easy(ish) one.
I kinda miss the days where you miced a back breaking 100 Watt head for a 300 patron show because is fucking rules and didn't actually give a shit about front of house. People remember pain. Gap that ass. What?!
Pleaseeeeee do at least part of the demo with a tube screamer... pretty much every metal tone uses one, and it would be really, really nice to hear how the amp sounds tight
Revv pulled a fast one on this. They released the D20 saying it was a "pedal platform" and got everybody to buy one. Now they release the G20, which is what everybody really wanted. So everybody that bought a D20 should be able to trade it in on a G20.
Hey dude! They're very different amps - we already see our customers and artists just keeping D20 with pedals, or getting a G20 to keep both. We built the D20 first because it's what most people asked for, G20 is now also here for people who want high gain in the amp :) The pedals into D20 are still a great high gain tone a lot of artists are metal artists are gigging with. Just more options now!
It costs 1300$... ofc its awesome... for that money I would expect it to bake my dinner every night! In EU it might just be even more expensive. Great video, btw, as always!
Thank you Trey :) We're so excited about this new amp, your video looks awesome! Can't wait to see you in California.
FABULOUS amp. Couldnt really figure out the channel switching but it sounded Huge! This and the MT 15 both rock
This amp sounds so good. Like many have mentioned, the Highwind Direwolf would push this thing to a digustingly sick level. I know Brandon Ellis and Ben Eller are really really digging theirs, and it's my favorite OD I've used by far.
0:22 Daamn those shots were sick, especially the first one!
The 'wide' button probably changes the Q of the mid tone control, i.e.: how wide the mid-band is.
Not sure if it was said earlier, but the "wide" button affects the clean channel primarily...sort of spreads the sound out.
They are very clear on the web site...it makes it wider. Measure the outside of the cabinet and you'll see it stretches just a bit when engaged...but seriously..."Wide is an overall voicing change which affects both channels. Channel 1 will receive more push as well as chimier(sic) highs & fat lows. Channel 2 will predominantly experience an extension in the low end."
It's really just audible in cleans.
Incredible tone!
Those cabinets are so awesome too 🤘
What a little beast 👌🤘
Really makes you drool with all the possibilities it offers...
I wanna hear this with a tube screamer
right
Why?
@Malcolm Reynolds LOL
Nice to see you playing a guitar with a head today, and not one of those headless abominations. :P That mini Revv sounds beastly!
This would be sick boosted with a Highwind Direwolf. Brandon Ellis has been using one like crazy lately.
So true...it needs a boost
Perfect product for me!! Great review!!
I've never related so much to that spongebob meme in my life.
I gotta have this amp! Great video bro!
Thank you for helping Metal...mini style!!!!!!! love it.
Well, I'm kind of glad I went with the Mojotone combo since I would have bought the D20 and kicked myself in the ass for a while.
Your own cab sauce sounded great. Thanks for this man, the best overview of the G20 so far. I was after a Helix rack but may get this instead. I already have a Dark Terror and D-moll so another (mostly) analog amp seems a bit pointless though 🤔
Wide affect more of the clean, i saw on another channel
that cab blend mode had some weight to it! very nice
Highwind Direwolf review would be epic.
Now you need to write a song and call it aggression level red.
Notification squuuuuuuuuuuuuad! Damn Trey, that guitar is incredible!
finally the perfect marriage of analog and digital, hope line 6 is taking notes.
I just bought the white one.
For those who own this amp, does the single EQ section shared by the channels cause a headache for you? Thanks!
Sounds awesome! it sucks to live in Argentina haha
The G20 kicks the D20's ass.
Do a review on the Highwind Amplification Direwolf PLEASE! That pedal is so cool!!
I wish it didn't have the built in torpedo. I just want an affordable revv amp with a purple channel, but this thing costs just as much, if not more than a 5150III 50w 😔
I don't think the Torpedo part adds that much to the tag. The internal load maybe, but I think generally this is more versatile than a 5150. No fizz and a better clean channel + it really has everything a bedroom player needs. Maybe get a 5150 with a purple Revv pedal if you don't need any of the other stuff.
Wide button doesn't do anything unless you turn the Mid knob, it seems. EQ bandWIDTH switch, I guess
Absolutely great person you are.
Put marshal 20 dsl against revv 20????
I dont like the Marshall it craps out early on the volume push, but ???
Can I play directly to my audio interface/computer and my speaker cab at the same time? Or if I connect it to my AI/computer would I only be able to run it through monitors connected to my computer?
I love this amp
Any way to EQ out that top end fizz? Don't see a presence control.
Pretty sure aggression adds mids pre-gain
got my preorder in i have the d20 already and the g pedals but i need this amp.
Tiny Trey g20 djents all day cause
REVV Rules 🤘🏽
What wave of friend is better? I guess the rev g20, that this great prs mt15, although I suppose that for the price it will be normal to be superior, don't you think?
Awesome stuff as usual. How does the low end compare to say a 40/50 watt tube amp with 6l6 tubes. Thanks.
Awesomeness! 🕶
Which is more aggressive, this one or the Generator 7/40?
What’s the name of the gatebox? The cockblocker

A variety of high gain tones perhaps.
2triggered 2comment lmao horizon apex sounds like farts in the wind
I haven't seen anyone doing that for 25 years. Lot's of no-gain boosters but not distortion.
Can you make preset with certain knob positions or are knobs completely analog?
Sounds great! Hey can you post the link to your cab IR? In the video you said it was in the description but I don’t see it.
Here it is: bit.ly/2PPYRxO
Awesome, thanks brotha! Which is the IR that is the mix of 3 cabs? Is it the “saucy” one?

I like that guitar
Random question: Do you like Revv more than a Mesa Dual Rec?
Yes but I’m not into rectifiers in general so I’m not the best person to ask
To me the They’re great in their own ways but the Revv G is not as difficult to get a great tone. You don’t necessarily need a boost pedal with the Revv but it’s essential for dialing in the Dual Rectifier. Imho
when you ask a mesa fanation. they'll say, huh mesa erection fire??. :p.
@@brandonproctor3639 really are you nuts??? the dual rect shits this amp out after eating a lettuce sandwich it is not even close....
@@NoCoverCharge false. Mesas are obligate carnivores and would never eat a lettuce sandwich.
Is it coming with channel switch ?
Stupid question: is what we hear running through that physical revv cab too?
Trey help me brother 😂
Kind of disappointed that you didn't do the notification squad call.
Like the "metal face"
You call that clean channel clean? You should state if this is a sponsored ad for Revv.
What's your opinion compared to a 100p on the 20 W tap??
Thanks.
I don’t have a 100p to compare it to unfortunately, but it’s pretty close to the purple channel on my 120. I hope to be able to do a comparison soon
How does it handle a 7 string in drop g# is what I want to know!
Ola Englund does a review of the Generator 120 and uses a 7 string I believe. This will probably sound similar
Toolshed76 yes and no. I know the generator 120 will handle it but will the smaller tubes in this amp have a flubby low end is what I’m wondering
Everyone is asking for a Tube Screamer with this but you should try out the Highwind Direwolf with this and/or all your amp reviews. Brandon Ellis and Uncle Ben Eller both have one, I think. It's one of the sickest OD's!!
I'd run a 250k pot. Treble kinda sharp
What's really clever here is that they didn't make the channels footswichable, so this little monster wouldn't compete with the big ones in a live application.
The channels are programmable via MIDI and can be recalled by things like Boss, Musicomlab, GigRig, RJM, etc.
@@RevvAmps I stand corrected then ;) thanks for making this clear !
@@matt.lemonnier You're welcome!
There will be an optional 4 button footswitch coming for it.

Check out Rabea Massad 🙂 Great tone that I can relate to. This? Not so much...
1/6th the power of the big head and almost half the price... Something doesn't add up js...

Not the amp for me as I like to smile a lot and I don't have facial hair or tatts
