Cranked Sovtek MIG-50 amp with DeArmond M70 guitar

[donofisch]

damn dude...I'm so jealous!

[markb1231]

i have a mig 50 also and my second channel buzzes... do you have a problem with than?

[GregoryJohnsonJr]

i love this amp.

[angrypunk666]

I have the EXACT SAME amp. I love it. Won't play anything else. I use the factory cab (hotwired both speakers into one channel,) and added two 12'' Eminance Wizard speakers. With that, I use a Marshall Jackhammer for distortion. Pure. Beastly. Rock.

It's a great amp. It's great clean with pedals, it's great when hit hard with an overdrive, and it's heavenly all by itself, cranked ALL THE WAY UP! Thanks for the comment, keep rocking that MIG.

how did you attach both inputs? I have a sovtek mig 50 and want to do the same thing.

@stiffupperlip4

you can always just use a Y-splitter cable and just plug into both simultaneously. I forget exactly how I did it- I think I just soldered a wire to connect the signal pin of one jack to the other. But then I had a problem because the jacks are the shorting type; if there's nothing plugged in, it shorts the signal to ground. So the unused jack was muting the whole amp. So I cut off the unused phono plug end from a bad cable and shoved it in the unused jack. Problem solved.

Its weird you mention burning out those resistors. Same thing happened with my MIG60. Only something about the diodes (??) and resistors and a burnt tube socket and all this and that.. you could literally smell the smoke. The power wouldnt even turn on.. got it back. and its loud as EFF and has amazing weighted sparkle fuzzy chunky tone.. love it.

How are the cleans on this amp ?

[AmpsAflame]

@18francesco18

The cleans are really good. It can be kind of dark sounding, especially through the "normal" input, but through the bright channel with the right speakers it can sparkle. It's really loud and powerful. The response is very solid and firm, it doesn't feel smushy at all. That can be a good or bad thing depending on what sound you're going for. I don't do much with pedals, but I hear that others really like it for their pedalboard setups. Thanks for checking out the vid!

"Very good sounding amp!

[dewycatt2112]

"I am the warrior", I serve the death Machine......Great stuff!

[telecasterman18]

Thanks for the vid dude. Great tone! I might have to pick one of these up. I passed one up on Craigslist not to long ago for $500 bucks.

[fsxolliefsx]

Incredible tone, might have to look for one!

What was that first song you played, the one with the cool picking? Sounds awesome!

[AmpsAflame]

@fsxolliefsx

That was my hacktastic attempt at part of "Warriors" by Thin Lizzy. Definitely check out the original, the song kicks ass. Thanks for checking out the vid, glad you liked it!

i got 2 50 amps

[trackingtim]

I was wondering, which do you prefer - the Traynor or Sovtek?

[AmpsAflame]

@trackingtim

.... the Traynor! But really it's all in the air once you start throwing in different guitar / pickup / speaker / preamp tube / power tube combinations.

[GregoryJohnsonJr]

awesome tone man.

[7evenslinger]

Very nice tone....looks like i'm getting one of these to pair with my Recto. Seems like a perfect fit.
