His name is Leonid Musaev, he lives in Saint Petersburg and told a story that he was contacted by Mike Matthews in the early 90s to make a Marshall clone, Leonid made it but he didn’t have enough of production capacity to make the quantity Mike had asked for. So he prepared all the documentation, found the local contractors having 11$ from each MIG produced, but he said that later Mike (or his then girlfriend) contacted the contractor directly and removed the extra link in the form of Leonid. He still makes MIGs, legendary amp clones for 400ish USD per head and everything custom you could want from an amp.

@rhettshull 🙏🙏🙏 Awesome!!! Glad you were able to grab some tones that you dig. Run some drive pedals into it and hear it really roar! For clarity on the switches, not cheaping out. They are nice Carling switches and are not cheap in any way. This style was prescribed to us by our testing house. The metal bats certainly have a better "feel" but there's no reason to believe they would have a higher probability of failure/breakage than the metal bat version. Thanks!

Life long Peavey fan here. I bought a 160w all tube Peavey Road Master way back in 2011 because someone told me it is a more affordable alternative to a Sunn Model T. Only paid 150 bux for it since it had a blown fuse. Replaced the fuse and that thing was pumping 160w of ear splitting goodness. I also have a Marshall MG10 that I put a speaker output on so I could actually plug it into a decent set of speakers and that god damn stupid little amp sounds amazing. I am now thoroughly convinced that there really isn't such a thing as a bad amp. Bad speakers and bad guitars, absolutely but if you take a cheap shitty little practice amp like an MG10 or a Line 6 and play it through a decent set of speakers with a decent guitar, it will probably sound pretty great.

The MIG-50 is somewhere between lead and bass spec as far as Bassman derivatives go. The tone stack has the bass values and there is no bright cap on the bright channel volume (which is II on this amp), but the first tube and the PI coupling caps are lead spec. Me, I modified my MIG-50 to be fully bass spec, even adding a switch to disable the peaking cap so that it acts like a Bassman (as opposed to Marshall's derivatives). My amp is actually an earlier run and has metal toggle switches. I actually use this with a bass cabinet as a practice/recording amp. 50 watts is on the small side for bass, I'll see if it'll keep up for a gig tomorrow or if I'll end up with Lemmy distortion once I'm at gigging volume.

Pete Traynor designed them to be "less fragile" versions of the popular Fender amps: he was an amp tech in Toronto for a large music store and was tired of fixing everyone's busted twin reverbs. The things weigh a ton partly because of the enormous Hammond transformers he sourced and are too loud, but they are built like a tank as a result and have more headroom than anyone needs. The bad things about the amp are: 1) Too loud. 2) Too heavy. 3) Original speakers are not great.

50 watts is freaking loud in 2023. I grew up gigging in the era of the original mig 50 amps. During that time I was generally always using two 40-50ish watt amps in my rig (super reverb and Marshall/bassman) . One was always on and the second was turned on and off for for crunchy stuff. Looking back, I cannot comprehend how loud we must have been but clubs were a lot bigger. I now live in Los Angeles and a super or 50 watt anything would get me fired. I'm getting ready to travel to Nashville for some shows in Sept and I'm trying to find something sub 20 watts to get through the gigs. A reissue of this classic is nice but in the hands of a kid, it's like a top-fueled funny car as a daily driver.

That is their Cosmic Phaser, and they used to have a analog Flanger, as well, with all the great parameters, snd ways to do different things. The Thorpy Camoflange, snd the Doppler phaser, use the same type of pedal enclosure, and pretty close to the same layout of controls. Very similar as RetroheadFX’s circuits. They sold them for for about $140-150 US, but the shipping was also $150. I still may get one their Phasers, one day, if they still build them. I’ve had a similar issue with a few small builders, doing cool stuff, but don’t have distribution, or a big enough clientele, time, etc. to commit to trying to be a bigger business, yet. Great pedals, at prices, half what it costs someone to build, in many European countries, Australia or even Japan, all have insane taxes on shipping. I remember finding Deep Trip, right before, they released their V2 BOG, and the line of Fuzz pedals, with it. Excellent Brazilian company! I wish I’d bought the phaser, when I found it.

For $799, you could get a used HX Stomp and a small powered speaker. That is 96 amps for under $8.32 each.

Rhett: excellent demo, and I find the black walls comforting, but you've got to get yourself a Soyez 1973 Condenser mic. The Sen 421 has too much harsh 3kHz. The 1973 is the most balanced/natural sounding affordable mic made. A big part of the sound is the extra resonance canceling diaphragm that reduces harshness. Ask Pete Thorne why he bought one.

I had a Sovtek Mig100h in the 90s, it was a clone of the JCM 800 with 6L6 power tubes and it sounded like fire, I regret having sold it, one of the best amps I have owned.

the best way to me is to find that breaking point of the most change in sound and leave the controls rigth before that

Nice choice of the riffs - Jet's CHB sounded very nice.

800 isn’t bad for a tube amp. I think what works against this amp is that most think of EHX as a pedal company first and you generally won’t see this amp in stores because most won’t take the chance of putting one out there thinking it won’t sell. Plus you have everyone demo’ing this thing online saying buy it from x online retailer. 800 is a good price, but it’s a lot for most to risk on an amp they can’t play in person

This was a better deal just 2 years ago when it was only 599. I feel at 799 there is a lot of competition that beats it out.

And it was $638 a few months back. Wasn't it originally $379-$399 like 3-4 years ago? Not blaming EHX on the current price, it's everywhere.

$800 for an amp with no FX loop.. hard pass.

@@HandWiredAmpsYou might be right. It's tough because I know their prices are going up, but everyone's expendable income is going down as a result of broader price hikes, so a $300 price hike often feels more like a $500-$600 price hike. I feel like we are going back in time to when I was a kid when it comes to gear prices where even trash was expensive.

There was never that many in UK from the Sovtek run. I wanted one at the time, but ended with a Laney AOR30 instead - which was great (now sold).

I'd say the biggest difference between 112, 212, or 412 speaker cabs, is how they're wired and the ohms resistance. Most speakers of the same wattage, ohms, and size, will sound very similar comparitively. Nobody seems to delve into these comparisons much on KZitem. I think goofball from SMG is doing a segment about speakers soon. He keeps talking about it, but I haven't seen much.

Use a Y cable and run both inputs at the same time and blend them with the volume controls! It's like an extra eq
