Hummmmmmmm, I need a cleaner amp sooo what's your recommend?

[BuzzBaloo]

This.... actually looks pretty perfect. I wonder how clean it sounds loud. 120 watts solid state obviously isn't gonna be as loud as 120 tube watts or whatever but I imagine it's still pretty good?

A lot will depend on the speaker sensitivity and how they designed the "clean" channel. On paper, it should hold its own against a SRRI or similar, maybe even a TRRI.

Often with SS amps, it's the more subjective matter of whether you like the clean tone.

I wonder how it does with pedals...

Since DV Mark has been mentioned...

DV Mark FGC121 — 120 watts, 1x12, 24 lbs., $550

I have a DV Jazz 12. It is VERY clean and not friendly to pedals. I might make a video this afternoon.

When you say pedals, I assume you mean dirt pedals. I would guess, delay or modulation would sound awesome through it.

Getting old sucks...:(

beats the hell out of the alternative.

You know what would work @smurfco ... That Trayor 4x10 we saw at GC and the Mrs. #3 didn't want in the house. I think that was right before you moved and abandoned me.

I always give Traynors a shout out in amp threads. They're often overlooked, sound amazing, and the prices are incredible.

Now that I think about it, wasn't @smurfco using that one at Barn Storm?

Yes...

What model is that?

Try the new Vox MV50 Clean. If you don't like it, sell it to one of us!

I'd love to see how the Clean sounds with a dirt pedal in front and how "loud" it is.

I wonder how similar @Mark Wein 's amp is to this DV Mark Gambale model... the pedal test will be interesting.

It was surprisingly good. I'll shoot one like this with my Suhr for comparison in a bit.

Thanks for doing that - that actually sounds better than I thought it would (albeit through laptop speakers). Knowing me do you think I'd be happy with it for a live situation?

I'm not sure. If you can find one in a local GC I'd torture the salesmen with it and some pedals first.

Yup...next time I find a great price on a YBA-1 I'm grabbing it.
