Kimbabig Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Hey guys, just got this, last good amp crate made. Guy who had it before me had it in an ugly cabinet with a white covering, looking to fix that, or not, whatever. Just got home to play it so recording has sloppy playing (but when isn't it?) It is basically an ac15 copy. The cleans on it are immaculate. Plus I play 3 doors riffs. Demo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dub-T-123 Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 My friend has an old Palomino. I'm not sure about the model (I don't even know if they made different versions) but it's a tube 1x12 combo with white tolex. It's pretty sweet. Literally every other amp I've ever heard from Crate was absolutely horrible. I have a little Crate combo and it is hands down the worst sounding amp I've ever heard.

It can get pretty gainy too if I remember correctly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimbabig Posted February 24, 2011 Author Share Posted February 24, 2011 This thing sounds amazing in my kitchen, all those maple cabinets and floors creating those great acoustics This thing sounds much better outside of recording. Hopefully my KOT will come in soon, but I don't know how it will play with pedals. I think my Palomino is a Made in USA one, as it says on the reverb spring plate.

Californiaman Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 That amp is a good amp. I think you made a great decision. It sounds good to me. Rock on brother! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Searcy Posted February 25, 2011 Share Posted February 25, 2011 I have a little 60W solid state Crate combo that has the best clean channel I have ever heard. The distortion sucks but it's great if you really want to crank a Muff Pie or something. Oh.... they also work after being under water. Handy bit of info to have.

Kimbabig Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 Finally I have a nice combo amp for practice, the speaker in it is teh suck. It's a pile dryver that's too small for the amps power, probably gonna get a 12" in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
