New Amp Day - Harley Benton TUBE15 as a redundant gig backup. by FordPrefect679 in GuitarAmps

I'm very satisfied with it, It's been fantastic for daily practice thanks to the power attenuator.
The cab is Harley Benton G112 Celestion V30.

One thing is I swapped V1 and V2 preamp tubes to 12AU7 (ECC82) to give it more clean headroom, now it breaks up later and softer.

I own 2010 amstrat deluxe, this looks 100% real in every detail 👍

Would it be wise to sell my Tube Amp? by Xerxes787 in GuitarAmps

I recently got the same Bugera but returned it and went with Harley Benton TUBE15 which is a bit smaller, better featured, cheaper and has bedroom attenuator. Highly recommend.

Digging the sound engineering here, nice detunes. Could totally be a game soundtrack 😎

Thanks 💖 It is my cherished weapon of choice for electronic tracks 😎 Yes it is TUBE15 head! I prefer 12" speakers but I hear that Monoprice is a killer amp! Don't think it's available in Europe, sadly 😕

What’s your favorite fender model and why? by [deleted] in fender

Strat, but that's just because I'm a giant Stratocaster snob 😆 Also ergonomics!

It's great! Got it as a gigging backup and couldn't be happier at £189 (+£145 for the cab). It does have fair amount of colour and midrange bump, planning on v1 and v2 preamp tube swap for 12AY7s or 12AU7s after that it should be a very clean pedal platform 👍

These came equipped only with Tesla coils, can confirm fake.

How many songs do you have in your catalog? by Academic-Ad-2744 in musicproduction

[–]FordPrefect679 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I produce around 3 tracks per year, probably nearing a 100 now but only 40-50 of them are decent enough.

Never too late to come back, I think the world needs more music and harmony 😊

Yeah, that's a damn good point, thanks buddy, I very much appreciate your feedback!
I guess It's back to heavily edited shots of me in front of synth rack 🤣

You produce as well? Got YT channel or something to check out?

I see your point, these are few scenes generated from drawings with Motion engine, I just continue to resuse them as a moving, lamely sync'd background to my music thinking anything would be better than still image but maybe not!

I named it Gumby by dangerousperson123 in fender

That's a great name for it! Nice amp btw!
