Haha! Props for keeping a straight face while saying "If it sounds bad, than I guess the reason is in the mirror. Not in the amp." I love it. So much stupid drama about this amp. I think you nailed it with that sentence.
😎🤟
Sounds great brother. Your playing always rocks whatever amp your plugged into . Appreciate you Euge.
Glad to hear! Thanks!
It’s a killer amp! …I’ve had mine since the original launch. I have the El34 & the stealth 50w heads and I still find myself playing this amp more. Hell I have the 6505+ as well so take that for what ya will. Great video as always Euge! 🤘🏼
Thanks man!
I’m with you on that. I got a 100w Stealth 6L6 after my Iconic expecting the Stealth to slaughter the Iconic but honestly I only really like the blue channel on the Stealth. And it really just isn’t as fun as the iconic. I don’t know how else to put it. The Iconic just has more attitude or character, the Stealth is a little sterile. The 50w el34 I like as much as the Iconic, they’re both super fun amps to play for different reasons. I guess it just goes to show, play it yourself and trust your ears/hands. The internet would have me believe the 6L6 stealth would wipe the floor with the Iconic but they’re just two totally different amps and I simply prefer the Iconic for playing more traditional metal and lead playing.
Cool video … the Iconic sounds awesome. Need to get one ! Been putting it off cause I always thought it was overkill for Home amp. Will have to get an attenuator …. Screw it !!!
This dude is so under rated ! The EVH rules , sounds so good .
🙏🤟
Great demonstration of the two amps!
Thanks!
Sounds amazing Euge. I have the Iconic head and recently paired it with a EVH stealth 2x12 and it sounds unreal. All the feel of the original with more versatility. I encourage people to try this amp with there favorite Cabinet. Thanks for the videos!
Thanks man! Cool!
Both sounds great ! I feel that they will pair well together in a band context !
💪🤟
Love your intro songs! Cool sounds!
Thanks! Glad to hear!
Both sounds great bro!!!!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
🤟
Awesome video man. Great playing. Professional 🤘😎
Thanks a lot!
Who else thinks the Iconic has a solid state Randall technology in there somewhere....long live Dime...great demo...great sound
You can make every amp sound great. So I had to test it myself few days ago :). Yes, it's a killer sounding amp. Thanks for a perfect review.
😎🎼. Glad to hear! Thanks!
Killer playing Euge I think the EVH Iconic is a great amp especially for the money.
Thanks! Indeed.
Sir, you are making it sound the best of all those who have demoed it so far! :)
Thanks! 🤟😎
@@EugeValovirta230V btw i had not been a fan of the burn swicth.. but you have shown me how to use it :) i tried it at the band practice and i think it sounded better than ever so .. kytos! :)
Your intro song was killer! Tight playing as usual. I liked the wah solo too. The JP wah is really good. I almost bought one, but I grabbed a Morley 20/20 Bad Horsie instead because it was on-sale. I really like the Morley wah, so I am happy. I tried asking Jim Brown about the "Burn" switch on the Iconic amp, but he wouldn't really tell me much about it. I suspected it was a TS808 circuit built-in to the pre-amp section. But he wouldn't tell me. LoL! I like what you said at the end: if it sounds bad, don't look at the amp, look in the mirror! LoL! So true. If YOU are playing it, it always sounds awesome.
Glad to hear! Thanks!
😎🤟
According to James brown the burn feature is specially supposed to make the amp sound more like the original block letter 5150
WOW Killer riffs Euge!!! Smoking!!
Thanks!
I liked that what u said about if you don't like it the reason is probly in the mirror not the amp....I was cracking up man!....
As always a kick ass riff in the song man
🤟😎🙏
Nice solo Hippie!!
🎼🕺🤟
I have an OG 5150. They have an amazing percussive powerful mid heavy tone. I love it. I boost it with an Airis Effects Savage Drive V4. My favorite boost for metal.
🤟
It’s nice that we have budget options for classic metal sounds. I would consider the new 5150 Iconic as my primary 6L6 amp along with the Engl Fireball 100 for budget amps.
I don't consider any of these amps "budget amps". To me, a Boss Katana is a budget amp.
Indeed.
Lol an engl a budget amp? Kneegrow please
both amps sound amazing I always love the 5150 sound 😍.
Yeah! 🤟
👉🎶🎸💪👏👏👏🤟 ...!!!! What else is there to say! Great POWERFUL presentations and WORLD CLASS guitarist.! Thanks for sharing Euge.
Thanks!
Its a great amp, sounds very close to the OG with some good features and a good price, but of still, OG crushes 🤘 more in your face palm mutes melter 🔥
Yeah! Agreed.
The iconic rips. Modernized and polished 5150
💪🤟
I rock my Peavey 5150 original first Combo version and that’s plenty for me. I do wish I had just a head, but the combo on top of my straight 4x4 5150 cab is good. Wife says it’s too loud. 🤣🤷♂️🤘
Cool! 😎
I own an EVH 5150iii 6L6, love it, but wanna add to my EVH collection. Stealth vs Iconic, seems like I may need both as the Iconic does sound great.
🤟👌
That intro song though, gods that was sick
Thanks!
awesome playing/ + why oh why the old and hard to get stuff always sound better xD
Thanks! 😎
Great demo Euge, it sounds very nice! Any reason why you're doing live cab instead of IR? BTW I checked out the new cyhra video as soon as it came out, hilarious video and great song 🙃🤘
Thanks! I really like the cab and the speakers I have on it. And the mics too so why not. At the end of the day a real thing is always a real thing 😎. But I still use Bogren’s IRs if I want something else. The interaction with a real amp & real cab is just something quite special and, in lack of a better word, lively. When done right. IMO the other isn’t better than the other but just a bit different.
@@EugeValovirta230V cool thank you for the explanation! If it's good it's good right 😁
Great review Euge! Do you think using the 1/4 power switch in the iconic will allow a good bedroom level metal tone? Asking since I live in apartment. Thank you!!
Thanks! Sure 👌🤟.
Better, worse, whatever. It just sounds great! Cheers Euge!
😎🤟
and? did you liked the video?
me: there's smoke coming out of my speakers
😂 amazing video, wow 🎉😎
Man I still love the wah pedal on solos . What kinda wah you rocking Euge?
A have a few I use but in my studio I mostly use Dunlop’s Petrucci wah.
Killer tune!
Thanks!
great playing Euge, I have been looking at those and wow that sounds pretty amazing price. think I would rather have a Marshall 1987x or a JTM 45, just my personal sound style. You know Tommy Victor, from prong played through a 1987x early on in Prong. just an awesome Amp. Marshall needs.to come down on their prices in the USA. Atleast you can get an EVH here cheap. Thanks for the review.
Thanks man!
@@EugeValovirta230V man ithought I was getting good at guitar so I started working on fight fire with fire. I'm not ready for that yet...haha... I give guitarist alot of credit for all the hard work they endure to play like that. It's gotta be a gift they are born with. Icouldnt imagine being that good especially at their age when thy made that song. Ride the lightning is really a big jump.from kill them all.
@@EugeValovirta230V hey I just heard ozzy and Clapton play one of those days and wow Clapton totally rips. Jeff beck plays a thousand shades. I'm gonna have to check new album out.
Yeah the new album is pretty cool!
I swear that bad boy LP was screaming for his bad boy amp !!🤟👍👍🤟
😎
love the song
Glad to hear! Thanks!
Thanks for the video, i'm playing on plugins with 5150 base, never heard this head live, especiaally so detail, but i love this sound, amazing combination middle and high, bright and viscous sand. Probably in the states that thing easy find, but even i can find and buy it- i'm never will play at home, never.
Thanks!
When you drop tune so low, do you have to readjust the action?
With whatever tuning & strings are used the action needs to be set to work on that particular ”set”. I’ve had this guitar in C-standard / Drop-Bb since 2017 but always when I change new strings I adjust any guitar to work the best.
Holy gain, Batman!
😎
dude that riff at 1:45 was fucking rad!
Thanks!
I prefer regular over iconic in this video, but differences are subtle and in a band situation nobody can distinguish between them, i think. I bought iconic combo 40 watt today and i am soooooo happy with it :-)
The ICONIC seems to have a bit more low end presence, or maybe that's how it's dialled in.
At least just presence (high highs) 😎🤟.
Iconic hybrid
1 question: you seem to be fond of mainly tube amps but they have huge disadvantages (picking up interference, need to be cranked, consume more power, fragile, need to be serviced, heat up, take more space...). Have you not found any transistor amp that does the job?
Their “huge” disadvantages are far outweighed by their tone. No one I know is whining about heat and radio interference. Servicing can be an issue but again it’s outweighed.
@Atte Tanskanen Yup. It can happen but it’s an odd thing to be concerned about or even mention. Happened to me about 5 years ago, but it was actually my ESP’s pickups grabbing the RF signal.
The only disadvantage IMO is that they’re quite heavy and quite unpractical to travel with. But I don’t travel with them but just record and play at my studio so there’s actually no disadvantages. I grew up playing tube amps and I just like them. It’s a bit like driving a real Shelby Mustang or playing a computer game where you’re driving a Shelby Mustang. If you know what to do there’s nothing better than driving with a real thing; amp or a car or whatever. And yes I have driven with a real Shelby Mustang 😎🤟. Oh yeah about transistor amps…nothing comes to mind atm.
Way too many people on here commenting about which amps they have, how they dial them in, what pedals/guitars they play, etc. etc., it's like a bragging competition. Who gives AF about your gear? Besides, everyone knows there's a ton of bullshitters online. We're hear to watch this great player compare two amps and give his opinion on them, nothing more. The end...
Peavey aaaaallll the waaaay...
🤟😎
I have a Triumph pag60 combo an Ultra 60 head original 5150 and 6505mh i will never part with.
🤟
I really don’t understand all the butthurt on the internet about the iconic. Yes, it can do metal just as awesome as the brown sound. It’s fine to prefer the older 5150 tone, but if you can’t make the iconic sound good, you don’t know how to dial in an amp and guitar.
Like I said in the video: the reason is usually in the mirror, not in the amp ’cos a good player sounds good no matter the gear and a bad player sounds…well 😎
hey EV
Man the original is just so heavy, its got something going on, its so much more intense, creamier, more complex mid stuff, yet, less high end grit than the Iconic, IDK, what it is but the Iconic has something different with the high end. Similar, but not quite, the Iconic is just a different sounding amp to me. I’ve gotten into some arguments about it, guys saying it sounds exactly the same but they sound different to me. That being said the Iconic still sounds fine to me I have no shade to throw at it, but for my preference if I had to choose it would be the original design.
Yeah they’re pretty close but obviously not the same (technical wise and tone). Both are great amps 💪.
"SO MUCH more intense"... guitarists... 😂
If you had to choose... wich one?
Oh that’s easy: my original block letter. No questions.
Why? 😄
I’ve had it for a long time and I like it more than any other 5150 I’ve played.
Peavey!!
F---K the amp - what a beautiful guitar!!!!
😎🤟🎼
The Peavey is a monster but I don't play metal… I like the white one better lol
😎👌
@@EugeValovirta230V … subscribed!!! 🤓👍🏼
My nickname for this amp is: The 5150 CHICONIC ( Made in CHINA ). I guess those Peavey 6505+ amps were also made in China.
😎. I have no idea where it’s made but who cares; if it sounds good it’s good.
