Ca sonne avec un ac 15 c'est asser rare qu'une pedale rende aussi bien avec cet ampli, génial

J'ai une séries du nom Vox Friendly Pedals, ou je fait que des démos de la Vox AC15 avec des effets de tout genre. La AC15 performe très bien avec tout les pédales que j'ai testé.

Great review! As an owner, must admit you pretty much nailed describing its character & cons+pros. My 2cents would be it actually has a broader gain range when run through the fx return of an amp as a preamp. Its tone controls allow for necessary compensation and you don't get that sudden saturation spike past 9-10 o'clock with the gain knob

I only have one amp with an FX loop, but I will definitely give that a try. Is that how you run this pedal, through the FX loop?

@@TheToneLounge yeah. I just use the fx return as an amp's input (bypassing the preamp section). Guitar->Nux pedal->fx return. Fx send is left disconnected.

I have a Friedman BE-OD for my high gain Marshall tones. I ordered this pedal for my “pushed clean” / light crunch tones. Hoping it’s a good fit for that. I use humbuckers.

That was a very well done review my friend. That stoner sounding lick you had going on was ripping man. To me, its just like you said. A modern sounding hotrodded plexi/jcm 800 type sound. A great pedal at a great price point. Excellent work bro. 🤘🏻

Hello, I finally got my copy of the Plexi Crunch and so far I'm really impressed about the sweet classic marshall tone it delivers considering that it's just a pedal (for 50 euros it comes even cheapish), normally my AC15 sounds like tin at home volume with OD pedals, this one gives a sweet creamy OD tone even at the lowest volume, so I expect it to sound even better at band volume, gonna test it soon at reharsal and live ;)

@@TheToneLounge Hello Johnathan, I finally had the chance to gig 3 times this week with the plexy crunch with my full band, I used it through my AC30 C2X and I'm really impressed with it, it kept a good definition and consistency in 3 completely different venues, really loved it with my Les Paul especially, not bad with the Telly either but I think it's with Gibsons that it really shines, you're right that it's way too high gain, I had to keep the preamp knob at 9 o' clock which was already enough for any vintage hard rock song, more than that it might get too noisy and out of control, at 9 it gives you a very controllable but powerful crunch for anything classic I think. The tone knob is a bless, it's really sensible and gives you plenty of sweet mids, presence is good too but I keep that around 9 o' clock too, more than that it risks to get fizzy. A very nice crunchy box for the buck, MY AC30 doesn't even lose its character with it, it still sounds like a Vox to me, maybe with some marshall punch on the top, but if you crank the AC30 with a treble booster it pretty much sounds like the plexi crunch, just a little more natural and slightly smoother, but still the plexy crunch tone knob really provides you plenty of options and gives you an easier life especially in those venues where mids seem to get lost forever due to bad acoustic (outdoor especially). A really nice bang for the buck.

I guess that they were going for the Marshall type of EQ, where the bass and treble don't do very much. Or perhaps it's just the design that was intended this way. It is a good sounding pedal though. Have you tried boosting the bass with another pedal, either before or after the Plexi Crunch?

i watched youtube after youtube video saying this pedal was awesome, so I bought one. it's only $50. It pretty much sucks balls. I play through a Marshall DSL, A VOX Custom AC30CH w/ 2x12c Cab. I also tried it through a Strymon Iridium. Used my PRS McCarty 594 and Gibson Les Paul Standard 60s. I'm not impressed. It's a badly executed knock off of a Friedman BE-OD. The Freidman BE-OD I highly recommend.

I've always found this pedal to have a bit too much gain on tap. I know some people who love this pedal, but I find it to be more along the lines of a high gain Marshall, as opposed to a Plexi.
