TUBE15 Celestion : Nothing better for the price

2 years ago

I had bought a new guitar, a Jaguar, for the first time since I was 19,over twenty years ago and I needed to find an amp. I thought I'd be happy with a solid state like the Katana but in-store I couldn't handle it. After watching a few YouTube videos I thought I'd take a gamble on this amp and I'm incredibly glad I did!

I immediately heard the tube sound and response I was after when I plugged it in. Sure it wasn't quite the same as the stack I had back when I was in bands but I wasn't going to get that from a little one speaker combo!

Now that some time has passed and I've played through it for over a year, the sound has gotten both warmer and crunchier. It genuinely sounds amazing in almost a jcm-600 sort of way. With a ds-1 or a getaway driver this amp is fantastic. Hell, even just the built in overdrive can sound quite lovely l, my stepdaughter playing radio head on my jag with the built in overdrive quite honestly moved me.

If you're after that sort of sound, just get this. For the money you really won't find better.
