Crate Goodness!! I finally feel I have made up for the mistake of getting rid of my Mesa/Boogie!

I got a brand new Crate Blue Voodoo 120 watt head sittin' on my cabinet at home!

pics now posted ~ Check last post. Rock On!

Excellent!! Much better... gain than the V-30 head. All the crunch I need!
I like the independent reverb settings for each channel too.

Re: New Amp ~ :)

nice one m8! bet its killer !! Ive not had chance to play a high end crate- how does it compare with the usual big guns?
 
Re: New Amp ~ :)

I've had the BV-60 for years and it's a GREAT amp. I wanted a VHT so bad, but when I heard the BV I was like, yeah, I can live with a bit less tone and a few grand left in my pocket, lol. Resale value is not great though. I bought it a few years ago for $250, dropped new tubes in it for another $100 and just sold it on ebay and got $230. This guy is gonna have an amp he's gonna love for years.

Good luck with yours. Congradulations.
 
Re: New Amp ~ :)

You only lost $20 over a few years... sounds like pretty good re-sale to me.

I love it! and yeah, definetly a big savings over another other high gain 6L6 amp I was considering!

Re: New Amp ~ :)

Tweed is a good color for straightedge hardcore because it's light and pure like your souls. good score.

wish i could find a stonerific Orange or Green amp in that price range...ha!

Re: New Amp ~ :)

Awesome score! You know, I've never tried one of these out. Maybe I should next time I get a chance. They're some of the coolest looking heads around. If they sound that cool, they're definitely worth it.

what style of music these amps were meant for?
they can definetly do a wide range of styles... I've got the gain wide open, so it's definetly a METAL set-up :amish:

Re: New Amp ~ :)

Are these different than the older Blue Voodoos? I remember sharing a rehearsal space with a guy who had one of the older ones, and I never really cared for his tone, and never tried it.

Then, a few weeks ago, I saw the same one you have at GC in the little amp room, so I decided to play it for about 40 minutes full blast. I used a LP, SG, Tele, and MM Petrucci, and was surprised by it's tone. Crate has really come a long way. Of course, it's a balls to the wall rock amp, and there's others that'll do the vintage thing better, but for what it does, it sounds pretty damn good. It reminded me a lot of the Krank Revolution.

Sweet cab, it looks like something for a PA or home stereo.
