Fun-CHEAP and Bad to the bone.........

crockes00 · June 13th, 2009, 12:38 PM

I got one but not as fancy as that one.

Hollmanp90 · June 13th, 2009, 11:47 PM

Poured the verb and Monster FX Eldorado OD to here on the bright side.......Bad playing and sound but really fun amp.

Canuckcaster · June 14th, 2009, 07:23 PM

I want to be a member of this club soon. Sounds good Army.

Hollmanp90 · June 14th, 2009, 11:55 PM

Thanks .....fun little amp.

Im very close to pulling the trigger on a Night Train. I found this topic as I was interested in what the forum thinks of it.
However Im surprised with the lack of owners!

Hey Army, did you do the sparkle yourself or is there some sort of limited run? It looks pretty cool.

+1 on all you've said. What kinda speakers dit you use Mr. Green?

Hollmanp90 · June 17th, 2009, 08:19 PM

Mine was stock......I was using mine as a test bed for a metal flake paint test for a upcoming build.........My cheapy cab is 1x10" and 1x12" Jensen MOD speakers......not bad setup.....thanks guys......really good amp. I put some NOS Mullards and I'm really pleased.

Well I'm in, I got my night train last week and gave it a road test over the weekend. I will say first of all that I am impressed by this bad boy. I'm playing a 52 tele hot rod RI and using a Bagend 1x12 cab with it. The tone on this amp is incredible and nice crunch and very responsive. I was concerned that 15w would not be enough in a live situation but this was not a problem as the amp easily cut through the mix even with several guitars playing. A lot of tonal possibilities with this amp though I wish it had a bit more clean headroom. An effects loop would have been a good addition too as it doesn't seem to take to time based effects as well as I'd like. Not that it mattered because it sounded so good when I plugged strait into it.

Here is a mucho better soundclip of this lovely little amp:
http://soundclick.com/share?songid=7752953

I did plug in some RI Mullards.....smooths it outr really nice but still gets dirty.

So.Ill "Plankster" w/High-Sense Filtertron into Monster FX Eldorado OD>AMT Distation>Holy Grail Reverb>Monster FX Swamp Thang Tremolo(Great boost pedal too) into the VOX NT and 1x10"/1x12" Jensen speakers:

Treble Booster · July 26th, 2009, 12:52 AM

Mine sits upon a 1x12 with a celestion Gold! I am finding that the RC booster works really well with this amp.

caliban335 · August 5th, 2009, 05:42 PM

So what cabinets/speakers do you guys recommend?

JDaveG · August 5th, 2009, 10:09 PM

I'll be a member of this club one day. Oh, yes, yes I will.

COAHplayer · August 14th, 2009, 11:46 AM

Just got mine yesterday. I love this amp!

Canuckcaster · August 30th, 2009, 03:48 PM

I'm in...for now. I rented one at a local shop for a month. It's slightly used, and they wanted $40 less than brand new. They would have to do better than that price, or I would just buy one new. My first impression was that it sounded great with my Les Paul, but the real surprise was how good it made my Tele sound. Now that's some twang ladies and gentlemen! I like the 15 watt mode much better than the 7 watt. Kinda sounded like the amp had a blanket drapped over it on the lower watt setting. It's a pretty great little amp with the kind of clean sounds that I've been lusting after. If I can get them to bring the price down I'll be the proud owner of this particular amp next month. Otherwise I'll need to find a new one somewhere. Now to find a nice reverb pedal to go with it.

Deacon Blues · September 22nd, 2009, 11:15 AM

Mine should be here tomorrow. I'll use it with a Mesa Boogie 1x12 cabinet loaded with either a Weber 1230A, or a Celestion G12 Century Neo. Won't know till I try them both.

tazzboy · September 22nd, 2009, 03:29 PM
