Yep, this amp sounds just like Brian May in 70s, just chose 0.25w turn the volume and tone all the way up and here it is muddy and very mellow tone with lots of sustain and feedback)
I just had to comment that it's hilarious that two people just asked if it's good for Queen tones, when you're showing a photo of your Brian May guitar, and actually playing Queen songs! You might need to add a scrolling banner that says "Really nails the Brian May sound!".
When I first heard about the AC4 I thought it would be out of my price range but then I saw the price and my eyes nearly popped out of my head =] Thanks for posting this demo as it's what made me order one!!! Hopefully my Gibson SG Classic will sound as good as your guitar through it.
how loud is this thing on full on the 1/4 watt setting? good for an apartment with neighbours and such? looking to get good tube distortion with low volume..
hell no, although if you want an amp for drums, i would recommend checking out something like a super champ, it works for band practice, not for live though, small venues are okay with an ext cab attached.
You can crank it over 2 drummers, 3 other guitarists, and a basist and stand out (trust me, i did it for 2 weeks everyday, it held its ground)
Here we stand, or here we fall, history wont care at al. xD, great song

How loud is for a living room? I play a SS 10w fender and it's never above 3-4. Would it be louder at 1/4w?

Hey All,
I am planning to get this (AC4TV) AMP. However i have 3 questions about it.
1 Can this amp sound clean at higher volumes?
2 Will this amp handle Heavy Metal Distortion too?
3 Is this amp loud for 4 Watts? If yes can i do a gig with it in say a 3000 square foot Auditorium?

dude can u add a distortion pedal in front ofd this amp to get more of a modern tone
( heavier )

Youd have to be a jerk off to screw up good tone like that with a pedal.

Do you think this amp could stand a chance at being heard over drums?

It's an amplifier for practice, nor for concerts.

Great Sound,
Is there any supplier in Europe that currently has them in stock.
Thanks

I got mine from Dolphin music in the UK 2 weeks ago for £189. But I think stock was very ltd.
I'd put an order in now and wait - it's a fantastic amp. No bells and whistles but for a practice amp the tone is to die for.
