Great playing, very tasteful! I bought this amp a week ago, and I'm in an apartment building, I've been VERY impressed with it's performance at lower volume, the ONLY downside I see is compared to my super champ ×2, the reverb is rather weak, it's plush and sounds good, but pretty much useless for "surf sound" type stuff, no biggie I'll just put a reverb pedal in front of it...any other reverb tricks you've used with the amp, I'd greatly appreciate you sharing with me! Cheers! Keep on jammin'
Thanks John, Agreed that the reverb isn't the greatest on the amp, I don't use it. If I used a reverb pedal, I'd definitely put it last in the FX Loop. Cheers!
Hey Jim! What a nice tone 😄 I wanted to ask you if the dsl40C is too loud for a bedroom ina a flat? I am thinking to buy this amp, am afraid though that my neighbours will not be very happy cause of the volume 😅 or would you recommend a smaller amp? Thanks a lot in advance and keep up with the good work🤘🏻🤘🏻
Great video as always. Thanks. After watching your channel I also put a Creamback neo in my dsl40c. I like my amp so much better now. Do you have vintage or modern wiring in that Les Paul? I'm having trouble getting that thin nasal (in a good way) Peter Greenish/Gary Moorish bridge pickup sound on my Les Paul Faded.
That sounded great! I have been searching for my 1st tube amp for quite some time now ... you might have just sealed it for me. However, DSL 20 is more inline with my wattage needs. My problem has been that I listen to blues/classic rock/hard rock and I can't find a versatile amp that can do the range of clean to crunch tones well. How does it take the standard fare pedals ... transparent ODs, wahs, delays, etc.? Thanks.
sbadali1 When I first got it I did. Then I started using the lead channel with the gain around 1 o’clock and rolling the guitar volume down for cleans. I don’t need “clean” cleans and don’t care for switching to a clean channel on any amp.
Hey Jimmy - this jam puts a smile on my face every time I watch it. I went ahead and purchased the DSL20, and I am in the process of finding/tweaking the right tones. I have a few questions given your experience with the DSLs. - The DSL-20's Clean Channel does not have a "Crunch" option; what pedals would you recommend in order to generate that cleanish-boost/crunch we hear in the video? - The DSL-20 has a Celestion 70/80, and I am thinking about a future swap ... do you think a Neo Creamback is suitable for the DSL-20 or should I be thinking Greenbacks? - Have you run a Fulltone OCD in front of your DSL ... any settings here you prefer? Rock on and thanks for everything you do!
Nice video! do you feel that the speaker swamp for creamback cut off those high end on the ultra channel?? In my amp I feel the ultra channel brighter and with much more treble than the classic channel.. do you feel like changing the speaker balances things out? Thanks keep it up! \m/
@@JimmyBurkard thanks for the info! It will tame the high end in both channels of more in the ultra channel (where i feel there is more treble high end)...
Ethan K No pedals and there is a Celestion Neo Creamback in it. The MCP Hot Head pickup in the bridge is about 15k ohms, A5. It hits the front end pretty good. Neck is a Manlius HR59, can’t remember if it has A5 or A2 magnet, it’s just slightly overwound.

That DSL and You sound awesome.. I always love it when you post your amp settings. Gives me a new tone to try out..
Glad you like it!
Damn that's sweet candy in my ears Jim !!! Sounds fantastic! I love that Creamback speaker. Thanks!
Cheers Mitchell!
Sounding awesome, as always!

@@JimmyBurkard 😀👍
I sometimes use a Marshall Echohead in the loop or Marshall Reflector pedal. Cheers.
I was debating picking one of these up, I have a trade offer on one and this COMPLETELY sold me! Wow!
Fantastic playing, phrasing and tone 👏
Thank you!

Julien Christen
Hi Julien,
I’ve practiced with mine in the bedroom and the master volume works great for low volume playing. Thanx!
Jimmy Burkard ok thx for the info! Rock on🤘🏻
Julien Christen Put this amp in 20 watt mode, better tone at lower volumes.

Jesper Rodkjær Pedersen
Thanx Jesper. I have the vintage style wiring in my Les Pauls. The Neo Cream has worked out great in this amp.
That sounded great!

sbadali1 Thanks. I’ve played many cover gigs with the styles you mentioned with this amp. It handles pedals like a champ and the loop is great, too.
Thanks Jimmy . Do you mainly utilize the Classic Crunch channel?

Do you remember what ohms the stock speakers was in the dsl40c was? So I know to get the right ohm 65 creamback
Hey Jesse, 16 ohms 👍🏼
Cool.
Very nice playing...you sound like Peter Green! Do you still have the amp?
Thank you, I love Green’s playing. Still have the amp, it’s in the rehearsal space.

Joao Nuno Thanks Joao,
The speaker swap does help tame the high end. 🤘
@@JimmyBurkard thanks for the info! It will tame the high end in both channels of more in the ultra channel (where i feel there is more treble high end)...
Joao Nuno It helps with both. Takes away some of the high fizzy stuff.
What are ur setting pls it’s so good
Ethan K
Hi Ethan, If you pause the vid in the first few seconds, you can see my settings. Glad you like it!
Hey Jim, just curious have you done any mods on the dsl40 such as c19 cap or any others. ThanksSteven
S G Hi Steven, No mods other than the speaker swap (Celestion NEO Creamback).
Pedals? Sorry lol it’s just really worth trying to replicate. However I don’t have the cream back in mine.
Ethan K No pedals and there is a Celestion Neo Creamback in it. The MCP Hot Head pickup in the bridge is about 15k ohms, A5. It hits the front end pretty good. Neck is a Manlius HR59, can’t remember if it has A5 or A2 magnet, it’s just slightly overwound.
Nice! Stock speaker?
No it’s a Neo Creamback, thanks!
what are the setting in this video?
Hi Marquez, If you stop the vid in the beginning when you see the control panel, those are the settings. Thanks for watching!
Is ur tone shift in?
No
