Joyo Amps?? Zombie?

[BloodRose]

I watched a vid of the Joyo Zombie and it sounds pretty impressive! Priced alittle more than I expected, but did some online searching and looks like most reviews are pretty favorable!

What ya'll think? Anyone had hands on??

That is really badass. I'm sold enough on the sound that I've got the urge to grab one except I already have a JVM, a Dual Rectifier and a rack setup. If they made a 1U preamp version of this, I'd buy it without hesitation. I also wish it had more tone controls (though it has an FX loop to run an EQ through) and I can always line it out to one of my power amps if I need more power. I always give props to amps that just sound good straight into the input.

The clips sound great and I was considering it. However, for home use my hotone heart attack will be better (5w ss) and for anything louder my recto reborn on 50w will crush it so no need in my case.

I know what you mean. When you already have amps that get the job done, it's hard to justify getting anything else.

Yeah, it's not that it sounds bad or passable (from the clips), it's just that the little hotone is killer at very low volumes and, since I have a house, when I can crank the volume I really can so there's no point in using anything else than the real thing you know...

Right back at you. I have a studio on a rural property with 5 acres, who's gonna complain?
