epi-curious Posted December 31, 2010 Share Posted December 31, 2010 I'm picking up one of these this week. For those who have them - does it help to use an extension speaker for gigging (blues volume, not metal volume) or is that not necessary? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildschwein Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 I use mine for blues, rock, jazz and fusion stuff and it has plenty of volume for that. I always run my volume under 50% and compete easily with bass and drums in the 3 piece I play in. I love mine BTW. Fantastic amplifier with a great clean channel that really loves pedals in front. The sound is huge and very warm because the cabinet is so large for a 1x12. Enjoy it man; it's one of the best SS amps around IMHO. I also have the Epi BC30 which is all valve but I prefer my Triggerman 60 in every regard over it. I loved my Triggerman so much I went out and picked up the 100 watt head too.

epi-curious Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 Thanks for the reply. I'm trading in a Fender FM 212 dsp on this. I also have a legend rock 'n' roll 50 which is great but WAY too loud for playing at home (it's mean to be turned up). I'm picking this amp up Friday. BTW - what cabinet are you using for the 100 watt head? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildschwein Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 BTW - what cabinet are you using for the 100 watt head? Actually I don't have a dedicated cab for it at the moment but I just set it up to run through the two 12s in my BC30. Sounds pretty good. I do like the 2x12 configuration but it is a lot to lug around to gigs and rehearsals etc. I'd prefer to run the head through a 1x12 box with something like an Eminence Delta or an EV in it.

epi-curious Posted January 9, 2011 Author Share Posted January 9, 2011 OK - I picked up the amp and my first review is I think it's a great sounding amp. I'm very pleased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
