[givemeajackson]

roadhouse!

[x7stringinJSCx]

Man this demo was Pro. i love it. i wuna get one now. great job.

[burningguitarsoul]

sweet amp.

it's kind of a like a smaller version of the RK100 being a single channel amp with a boost.

[gahzeyboe]

Goddammit, your accent is epic!

[InnerPeaceRecordings]

Very clear and concise demo. Your a fantastic player and get great tones.

I wish we could maybe have seen the master cranked up a bit, but I guess that isn't always easy to do due to the volume.

Thank you!

[flatleaver]

Cool. Nice sparkle to the clean sound.

[metalmulisha0143]

Man your playing is brilliant!!!!!! and thanks for all the other lesson videos they're ace! would it be possible to change the tubes on the production models from 6l6s back to EL34s?

[Bluestouse86]

i just heard about these amps yesterday... i picked up the roadhouse 50 yesterday, lmao... traded my les paul traditional straight up for it!

[ichi612]

ahhh el34???i though its a 6l6??????

[mastertheguitar]

@ichi612 See Uploader Comments :)

[ichi612]

@mastertheguitar hihi sorry about that hihihih cuz the cornford web says 6l6 and your demo is el34 hahahah sorry mate

[EOHRyan]

How does this thing sound side by side with a hand wired Cornford? for example like the Hellcat or MK50.

[maneatingtoilets]

@EOHRyan On the website, it says this is still constructed and handwired in the UK. Ive never played any though so I dont know how they really sound.

[mastertheguitar]

@EOHRyan I was lucky enough to demo a MK50 II for MasterThatGear (check it out on the channel). They are different amps so tricky to compare. MK50 II felt a little crisper/tighter.

[GibsonGuitarist666]

Is this worth it , or should I get the Mk50 instead?

[lbighetti]

Hello there.! Killer amp.!

The Cornford website says the power tubes are 6L6 tho.

Is yours different from the ones currently under production?

peace

[mastertheguitar]

@lbighetti Yeah the originals shipped with EL34 then they changed to 6L6 for production models.

[bigleemac]

Hi mate, great demo and playing!

A question really, I'm thinki9ng of running a two amp setup with my Matchless and a RH30, I'm really after a vintage modded Marshall type of lead tone (But I dont really want a Marshall, had some difficulties!) Just wondered what your thoughts were?

[mastertheguitar]

@bigleemac Not tried a Matchless but have heard them and they do some awesome. The RH30, for me, definitely has that Marshall vibe to it (EL34s). If I drive the preamp stage with a line boost you get that classic sounding crunch lead, it's truly tone-a-licious at gig volumes :)

[shredknowledge]

damn I'm sold on just the first setting lol

[MrChemify]

They can live in an flat? Not too loud?

[alextw13jf]

Fantastic demo for a fantastic amp. My best compliments for the quality and accuracy, mate. Oh, by the way, I WANT A CORNFORD !!!! I didn't have a crush like this for an amp since those long gone days when for the first time in my life I came across a Boogie Mark II back in the 80's....then, last year, I went to see a gig by Mr. Richie Kotzen and now I'm done!!

[eXpdjmnm]

Why are you keeping the master volume so low?

I mean, tube amps usually sound better the higher the volume goes. Or maybe that's just my opinion.

Awesome demo though!

[mastertheguitar]

@eXpdjmnm I live in a flat :)

[eXpdjmnm]

@mastertheguitar Oh, that makes sense.

[pleximarz]

i like that riff at 8:42, nicely done

[emosucks89]

A Suhr through a Cornford... What could be bad?

[guitarcrazy019]

LOVE THIS AMP

[brightonrocker1]

Excellent demo. Hopefully Cornford are rewarding you appropriately for using your superb guitar technique to buff up their amps! It really helped me decide that I want one of these!!

[theincredablepuke]

Hi Mark, I wonder If you can answer a question for me. i am looking to get a roadhouse 30, But have only really used 4x12 and 2x12 in the past. How is it throught a 1x12 live for sound spread etc..

I really love your vids and teaching style.

Cheers Mate Luke

[snotmale]

I have the combo and I also run out in tandem into an additional 1x12 V30 cab which is across the opposite side of the room I play in. Its sounds very hi-fi...

[bornburied]

what a bonnie piece of kit! It goes pear-fect with my bagpipes aye!

[soulbrotha4u]

Very very nice demo bro!!! I like how you tested the dynamic range of the mids, treble and bass. On these amps is there a reverb? Or what do you use when performing live for reverb if any thing? Thanks

[mastertheguitar]

@soulbrotha4u Thanks! No reverb on the Roadhouse. I personally don't use any reverb live. I use it only for recording really.

[Whyrendog]

@soulbrotha4u If you can get a Cornford, you no longer need reverb to hide crappy amp tone because there wont be none.

[infernalgr]

Great review man! i'm considering this amp very seriously :)

[uva2323]

@infernalgr buy it i tried it and I was amazed a true rock machine you can get all the tones you want from jazz to mark knopfler to ACDC to metallica to steve vai everything

[mod50]

Could you do a video on how you set up your Legacy to get that great tone you have in many of your videos?

[topografer]

the guitar somehow sounds like it has the les paul bite at the humbucker position

[RockHistoryTube]

Great play my friend!

*****

ROCK ON!!!

[nikh158]

Maybe you ought to have a "Master That Rhythm" section as well...

[ninadios]

Y thing you should do something with your hear, it was kind of uncomfortable watching you with your hear on your face.

[jareds1007]

you been watching too much Guthrie...you're getting better than him. lol....but thank God for the stepping stone eh?

[jareds1007]

sounds great Mr. McGuiggen!

[SteveHubbardGuitar]

great demo, mark!

[ems81ar]

you rock man! the amp too

[binky69]

your settings at @ 7:10 are what i use on my bugera 6262...

[dashiznit67]

2:36 IDEAR! :D

[threex4]

Sounds bloody brilliant.

[xxxEnterSandmanXxX]

great man real funky tone! love it!

[no66y666]

Wicked. Cornford should be paying you I reckon.

You should be in a gigging band too.

Great video and great playing.

[1MProductions]

Great review, I might consider buying one of these.
