Hey man, I'm hungry for these NAMM videos too. Consider ourselves fortunate, that we don't have 10 different things pulling us in 10 different directions!
@@kernowchris I feel like half of them were about the Marshall heads and that damn Mxr Rockman pedal. My FYP has been going nuts on those two things even though I haven't watched them
It sounds like I'm noodling away on assorted Zep riffs in the background of this video. I'm not in Anaheim, am I? Is someone looking after me? Have I had my tea?
I have a Vibrolux with a line out to my Peavey Valve King 20 MH and I have been getting this sound for nearly a decade. 6L6's and EL 84's two different speaker cabs, the valve king into a closed back the vibrolux into an open back. Glorious. Peavey fan.
At about here 2:44 the rep is talking about the Tone King module doesn’t have reverb built in but the IR model does. So maybe they gonna make Friedman style IR boxes if modules. Gimme a Bogner IR!
With the synergy modules i sort of think is this just not like a Quad Cortex into a FRFR cab but the modules unless you change them out limit you?? They aren’t cheap and it’s still just a representation of the amp but way more expensive compared to a just as legitimate capture from the manufacture.
@@PeteWalde-m9n the difference ist digital vs analog. With Synergy you have a fully analog preamp and power amp section that you run with a guitar speaker not a frfr. Some prefer an actual guitar cab to a frfr solution for which with a QC you would need a power amp such as the Seymour Duncan Power stage.
@@Andergast_guitar Exactly! I ended up getting a Fryette 2ch 100w Power Station. The Power Station acts like a power amp for my Synergy SYN1 and an attenuator for my amp heads.
These modules have the tube preamp circuit and where available they even use the same exact components as the "real" amp. If you use a tube power amp, it's a full on analog tube amp. The synergy modules are also designed by some of the best tube amp builders out there. In my personal opinion I actually prefer some(not all) of the modules to the "real" amps. Captures are just a digital representation of one setting of the an amp, any knobs you turn on a profile is just digital post processing. Which is fine, but not a tube amp.
The issue here is you’d start running into phase issues with certain combinations of modules / channels, depending on their individual topologies, number of gain stages, etc.
This is why I am a diehard entrenched Synergy Amps gearhead! These guys are the cream of the crop in USA amp making
Finally! I have been waiting for a Tone King module for 5 years!
I have no life, I swear I’m pretty much always first to these videos

Man, we're the same :D
@@sentientcardboarddumpster7900 id love that to be true, but i do, i manage to keep up with videos for like 5 or more hobbies
Totally fun stuff
😂😂😂😂😂 me 2
Damn that Friedman guitar loooks fresh
I have been waiting for this.
first or second ACTUALLY interesting NAMM video so far...THIS is what we wanna see!
I've ACTUALLY enjoyed them all.
@@kernowchris I feel like half of them were about the Marshall heads and that damn Mxr Rockman pedal. My FYP has been going nuts on those two things even though I haven't watched them
I can’t say I know anything about Synergy, but that T Pete is playing is gorgeous.
I always find Friedmans to be almost exactly what I want but for what they cost I always find something I like better.
Love my Synergy Soldano🤘
Those Friedman guitars with the bullseye and tiger stripes are magnificent.
I didn't realise that Alan Carr was such a good guitar player!
I'm going to have to get a second job to pay for my next round of Synergy gear. Great video fellas!
In 2024, plugins became the norm, but physical amps are making a comeback in 2025. Love it.
Apples and Oranges, literally
I just bought an Engl Steve Morse 20. Coupled with 3 pedals It beats any modeler ou there.
amazing amp
ou dude that vibrato sounds great dude.
Oh wow, sparkling purple vintage t with p90 ! ... 😳
Woah...Where can I find that Tiger striped Friedman guitar with the Floyd Rose?
It sounds like I'm noodling away on assorted Zep riffs in the background of this video.
I'm not in Anaheim, am I? Is someone looking after me? Have I had my tea?
Price and timeline on the head? Sorry if I missed it in the video
999$ without module as far as I know and to be released in february.
@@Andergast_guitar that's actually not that bad, i was thinking about 1.1 - 1.4 with a module so kinda makes sense
That’s fair.
check out the Peavey booth, they released the Joshua Homme Decade amp with an extension cab, & a bunch of preamp pedals of OG Peavey amps
I have a Vibrolux with a line out to my Peavey Valve King 20 MH and I have been getting this sound for nearly a decade. 6L6's and EL 84's two different speaker cabs, the valve king into a closed back the vibrolux into an open back. Glorious. Peavey fan.
Yeah. They got a Rockmaster pedal. Noice!
Getting one.
Fortin Cali amps are way underrated
4:09 omg
30 years ago the best of the best was only next years sales item. After 100s of guitars and amps nothing sounds better today.
If they made an IR version of their rack preamp I’d be all over it. I’d also like IR pedal versions of a few of their modules
At about here 2:44 the rep is talking about the Tone King module doesn’t have reverb built in but the IR model does. So maybe they gonna make Friedman style IR boxes if modules. Gimme a Bogner IR!
blue balls eye Friedman on display!
Lame, should have added these features to syn30 with 6l6's I have too many el84 amps.
The best musical instruments are the ones that were built like a tank non of the modeling crap we see these days.

I'm looking forward to a dual-module, full-stereo (input and output) head someday.

The mic'd sounds aren't good in this video. I'm sure these modules sound better than that!
Sounded terrible can't lie dude
The grandpa synergy rep is super annoying. Finish a sentence man!
Doesn’t sound good…
Wow, the hair, the glasses, the pants, the guitars, the sounds...we are living in a time of bad taste.
You know those people can see your comments too right? If you don't have anything nice to say...
I can’t say I know anything about Synergy, but that purple T Pete is playing is gorgeous.
