Click here for more behind the scenes info and/or insight and http://shop.ebay.com/merchant/greengtrs is the link to my current eBay auctions if you are interested…send me a message (through my channel page link…just click on my name or avatar) if you have any questions or if I can be of any help.

This video is the first take I did for the demo/review of a Roland AC60 Acoustic guitar amplifier I recently had and sold. I used my custom made Taylor 712E (and the Ovation Celebrity Series CC045 12 String towards the end). I was deleting old files and gave it one last listen and decided it would be good and possibly beneficial to post it (for anyone who was looking at the amp and wanted to hear it with a different guitar)…besides, I think I gave the amp a more thorough going through on this take. Enjoy! God bless!

I sell lots of used guitars and basses (both here and on eBay…same name there…100% positive feedback) and I’m a dealer for the Mbrace stands (still $60.00 including USPS Priority mail service for the US, $80 for Canada or Mexico and $85.00 for the rest of the world) and also Thomastik-Infeld strings. Let me know if there is something you want/write me if you’re interested…again, use the send a message link on my channel page.

The video recording was done with a JVC GR-D850 miniDV Camcorder using the built in microphone.
The guitar is plugged straight into the Roland AC60 Acoustic amp without any outboard effects at all.

If you like what you hear, or are interested in any of my current or future used guitar offerings, subscribe…you’ll get a heads up on any guitar that I’ll be listing for sale on eBay (or here) as I post a video here first.

Thanks again for watching!
Howard

As always, I hope you enjoy the video. Thanks & Rock ON!

Just messin around with my favorite little delay. The MD-3 is well built, and has clean, loud repeats. I’m terrible with these things, but that never stops me from posting, does it?! I used an Audio Kitchen Lil Chopper amp and my American Standard Stratocaster, and of course…the white coily cable from Bullet Cable!! The intro music is from a band called BODECO. You can get their music at http://www.cdbaby.com

Here is another modeler … the V-Tone Guitar GDI21. This one is based off of the SansAmp GT2. It has 3 modes – the California Mode (Mesa Boogie), the British Mode (Marshall) and the Tweed Mode (Fender). It also serves as a Direct Injection (DI) box to plug into mixers. IMO – Something like this isn’t too far off from the AMT line – this is designed to sound like other amps, in a foot-switch form factor.

As always, I hope you enjoy the video.

And, don’t forget – in celebration of 30 Pedals in 30 Days, you can opt-in to win a Line 6 M13 Stompbox Modeler Unit. Details here : http://thetoneking.com/wp/gear-give-away/dec10-line6-m13/

Buy the Blues Deluxe here… http://www.nevadamusic.co.uk/Guitar-Amplifiers-and-Speakers/Guitar-Amps-Combos-and-Cabinets/Guitar-Combos/sc1585/p3414.aspx Think Fender and for most people a Strat or Telecaster will come to mind, but let’s not forget they also have a history for making some of the finest amps on the planet. Just as Fender got it right first time with their two iconic guitars, the same has to be said of their amps. It’s amazing that in a world brimming with technology and miniature gadgets galore, that no one has come up with a better formula for amplifying guitars than the good old valve. It’s little wonder then that Fender offer a range of brilliant reissues from the ’50s and ’60s. Here we have the tweed covered Blues Deluxe.

This combo weighs in at 45lbs and is solidly constructed. Height is 18.75″ width 23.5″ and Depth 10.5″. There are three 12AX7 and two 6L6 valves plus a solid state rectifier. One 12″ Eminence special Fender design 50 Watt speaker delivers the sound. There are two channels, superb vintage Fender clean and the bluesey drive channel with a host of features.

Independent Gain and Master Control’s for the drive channel. A bright switch, effects loop, reverb, presence, middle, bass, treble, drive select button, drive, volume and further bright switch. Finally the power and standby switches. All mounted on a highly polished chrome panel with retro looking chicken head knobs. This amp is capable of producing the classic Fender clean tone and punchy blues rock sounds with ease. Comes with channel footswitch.

I feel if your toying with the idea of an affordable classic Fender style gigging combo, you’ll find no better match than with the Blues Deluxe. Just add a couple of your favourite pedals for a great set up. Highly recommended by players the world over.
