Roland AC-33 Acoustic Amp – Nevada Music UK

admin — Sun, 05 Sep 2010 10:30:02 +0000

http://www.nevadamusic.co.uk/Guitar-Amplifiers-and-Speakers/Acoustic-Guitar-Amps/sc1584/p8749.aspx The Roland AC-33 is the worlds first battery-powered combo amp and has been designed and manufactured specifically for acoustic guitar. Portable yet powerful, the AC-33 provides true stereo sound, Guitar and Mic/Line channels, personally-configured effects, anti-feedback, and a Phrase Looper.

However this amp was made to go to places that amplifiers are traditionally not able to – I’m talking of course about using this amplifier outdoors .Thanks to its battery-power capability, the AC-33 lets you take your act anywhere and therefore this little power-house of an amplifier will appeal to buskers or perhaps those who need ultimate portability to their guitar rig.

The AC-33 provides 15 watts per channel resulting in 30 watts of stereo sound and can run on the optional A/C adapter or 8 x AA batteries.It has on-board reverb, chorus and ambience (spatial) effects along with a 38 second phrase looper. There’s also a stereo aux input for an MP3 player or similar and an anti-feedback function for if you attach a microphone, whilst the cabinet can be configured to stand in “kick-back” mode similar to a floor foldback monitor.

Traynor YCV40WR guitar amplifier demo

admin — Tue, 22 Jun 2010 05:56:11 +0000

This amp gets some great sounds using a strat or a 335 straight into amp with no pedals. The volume in the room was very loud though. The brightness switch is always ON for that glassy fender sound. The Celestion Vintage 30 speaker sounds noticeably smoother after it has had some time to break-in. I sped up the process by connecting the speaker directly to a 400w mono QSC power amp and played the local R&B/Rap radio station through it for about 8 hours at a safe volume. When I got home from work and reconnected the speaker, it sounded fantastic.

The overdrive settings starting at 1:30 were:
(Channel 1)
Gain: 8
Volume: 2
Treble, Bass, Middle all three set to: 5
Boost: OFF
Presence: 6
Reverb: 5

Stock tubes were replaced with ‘early breakup’ set (see below) of JJ Electronic Eurotubes:

http://www.eurotubes.com/

Traynor YCV40 – High gain option.
A pair of the JJ 6L6GC’s along with three hand picked high gain ECC83S’s with one of them being balanced for the phase inverter in V3. For you players who need a little more edge! These are fixed bias amps so please use the comments box before checking out to let me know if your after max headroom, middle of the road, or an earlier breakup from the clean channel so I can pick the proper grade for the power tubes.

The 335 humbuckers were a DiMarzio Air Norton in the bridge and a Gibson ‘57 Classic in the neck. The strat was a mahogany Fender American Select Stratocaster HSS with a Diamondback humbucker and two Tex-Mex single-coils.
