"Down and dirty Blues and classic rock amp"
Verified Customer
zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
This is one solid down and dirty Blues and classic rock amp it can do early metal tones too if you have gain pickups and good tonewoods in your guitar.
Sound
Hot, dirty, and high gain.
Features
I use a newer Epiphone 2021 or 2022 SG Classic with medium to high output P90's.
Ease of Use
Just crank the thing up for high gain tones and turn the volume down for more mellowed Blues tones. This amp cranks up at early volume and would not be good for jazz country soul or clean tone music in general for modern metal you might need a fuzz or distortion pedal.
Quality
Built by machine in New York City, USA with American components.
Value
If you want to deal with high gain tube amps built in the USA with American components but don't wanna deal with complicated circuits and transformers then this would be the amp for you if all you need is small tube watts in combo format.
Manufacturer Support
Ive called them about this amp and even though the connection was sparse I'd did get ahold of them and they were very helpful and grateful that I'd bought their amp.
The Wow Factor
I'd give this amp a 5 star rating.
Musical Background:
Blues classic rock and early metal from the 70s
Musical Style:
Just told you. Blues based rock and metal

"Real Solid Amp"
I have the Supro 5 watt Tube 1606 and The 1605R. Both of these Amps Are So Clean and solid. Well Made to last forever, eventually The Tubes will have to be changed. I Like the Tone, Both Amps will get Dirty but turn the Volume knob down A fraction and They clean up. The 1605R is so versatile, If I could have only one small Amp, The 1605R. These are amazing bedroom and studio Amps. Though They any vocalist will need a mic. The Amps would need A mic if A Drummer is part of the gig. For Sure.
