this is a fun little amp, ive put it out at my computer as a little amp i can use when im practising at the computer. Got my zoom g1xn going into and its great.
@jimmyzgames nice! :D i got it from the website you suggested, gear4music :D its really good! im going to get most of my equipment from there now. thanks
Reminds me of the lead guitar tone on Steely Dan's "Reelin' in the Years." I've always suspected the guitarist used a shot battery in a Fuzz Face to get that tone. After listening to how it makes this sound, my suspicion is stronger...
They have this on lockerz. What is lockerz you say. It us a site where you get free stuff for logging in an watching videos. It's invite only. Just private message me and subscribe to me. And I will in bite you. Have a great day
I could never understand what everyone finds so appealing about voltage deficient distortion sounds. It is almost all odd ordered harmonics, and the notes decay abruptly and in a way that sounds strangled. Why do people pay 200 bucks and more for a pedal that makes their amp sound broken? Can't you just go to the local landfill and find a broken amp to keep on hand for those tone deaf days when you find yourself craving the sound of a buzzsaw? Or even buy a buzzsaw? AM radio? Whoopie cushion?
If anyone wants to get this amp FREE from lockerz pm me ill send you a beta invite :D its only 125pts , you get 2 points a day , or more usually for doing nothing!!!! just signing in. Great video btw i love that little amp , peace
I used to be an Orange dealer in here in Birmingham, and every now and then i'd have a Micro Crush freak out like yours with a half load battery. Now I know why! That sound is so choice - hold on to it - it can be ultra valuable in the studio!
If you think about it, Radio Shack Kinda started this idea with that little beige project pocket speaker/amp that was about $12. It just didn't look like a guitar amp, but it was basically the same concept.
Tbf the roland cube amp is beter buts its like 150 quid, i got this orange one for 29.99. and when u get into higher power ratings i think the orange amps are better, from like the crush 15 upwards.
dude when i first saw this i was like "psh here we go, another novelty pocket amp" but now that i here this it has some kick damn. I love pocket amps don't get me wrong and this one actually sounds great!!
Sounds great with the dead battery for a few minutes but after like 10 minutes of use it STINKS, notes don't hold at all, etc.
It's interesting how much the power makes a difference but I wouldn't want to play with the low battery for any length of time, it starts to sound more and more awful when it stays on longer...
It never seems to die tho, I let it stay on for 3 days in a row on an almost dead battery and it still worked... it just sounded horrible
look like a swwet toy , thank for the demo . i own vox amplug ac30 and anplug metal too , but this amp look sweet , it sound thin because of the speaker probably ..im sure it will sound good through headphone . have you tried it with headphone ??
Hey i got a question for u mann, Right now i have a fender mini twin-amp. Should i get the orange micro crush instead? Because it has a tuner on it too which is awesome. So please respond Thanks mannn
yea, i came across this by accident. thought i broke it at first, changed the battery, then changed it back because it sounded cooler with a low batt.
Wouldn't work. What you are hearing is the voltage sag with a higher load, not unlike a valve rectifier. Using a battery with a lower mAh rating would give a similar effect too. What I find with this unit is that setting clean then cranking the volume with a 1/2 empty battery sounds very nice indeed.
hey how long does the battery last on that microcrush, since it only runs of DC no wall adapter. I'm thinking whether to get the micro or the crush 10.
does this come with built in reverb? and how often do you change the tubes? ;-)
