Feels like a fender champ

[arypma]

How many watts does it have? And can you cut it down to half or a quarter like the vox ac4tv?

[tomasterrizzano]

hey brother, awesome playing, i want to buy a champion 600, would you recommend me to moddit with reverb or just buy a reverb pedal?!

AWESOME MAGIC PLAYING MOJO

[snaskc]

Thanks man,it needs reverb no doubt,if you could mod it you would have a great little amp,but a pedal would be the more sensible option.The amp is very dry sounding without reverb,it needs reverb.

[GLK2780]

@snaskc everything needs reverb my friend =)

most of the vids i see on the champ 600 either have that bullshit mercury magnetics "upgrade" or just kids that dont know how to play, so i almost just said fuck this amp ill get a vox ac4tv. until this video. awesome playing dude. i think you just sold me on one of these.

[snaskc]

@GLK2780 Thank you man,kind words,a few people said what you have,maybe I should get a job at Fender! think I'll get one?

[GLK2780]

@snaskc hell, I would hire you lol. does fender do anything like the boss sound checks? if they do, you should apply for that job ;)

[cheetah25236]

Gorgeous. Give you ten bucks to turn the camera around on the fretboard so we can see how you play this.

[snaskc]

Thanks man,kind words indeed,it's all simple stuff,might do another with vocals.

[pmay222]

finally got me one of these...sounds good on its own...and when i use my digi effects thru it....you can still hear the tube crunch in there and warmth....perfect for a total home indoor player like myself...

[cherdrol]

so damn good.

[snaskc]

Thanks man

[OPChip2008]

good work !

[snaskc]

Thanks

[TwoTewToo]

unbelievable-the people want more/

[snaskc]

lol  thanks man

[Testacabeza]

Sounds so nice, like touching glass with a silver rod.

[snaskc]

Thanks,Funny how the word glass always pops up with tone/pickups/amps seems to fit though,bell is another one,bell type tone etc

[edifymee]

just wanna say, awesome.

[snaskc]

Thanks,means a lot.

[Malosovich]

still think this is one of your best videos.

brilliantly simplistic.

[snaskc]

Kind words ,thanks,sold this little baby on ebay,nice little amp though.

[sichadeb]

what reverb do you use

[snaskc]

This was the digitech hendrix pedal.

[sichadeb]

@snaskc it sounds great.

[twirlyboggs]

great post on this amp & yourself too

-enjoyed that !

[snaskc]

Thanks man.

[SteveTheJazzMan]

Such a releive to see someone play one of these without a butt load of distortion :)

[50j0urn3r]

great tone, beautifull!

5*

[chuecco]

two questions pal:

Do you think this amp is good for some john mayer kind of songs?

And, how loud is it compared to a solid state amp? like a 30w solid state?

and btw the bending at 1:12 killed me, beautiful

[loosestring]

Buddy Guy -- It Looks Like Rain . . . spot on, too . . . very nice

[snaskc]

Thank you

[LovejarMusic]

By the way, I've got one of these amps too and it's great; fantastic for recording. Glad I bought mine before they revamped it and slapped a $1000 price tag on it!

[snaskc]

I bet she sounds sweet.

[LovejarMusic]

Awesome blues vibe, sweet tone, tasteful use of reverb. Well done!

[snaskc]

Thank you man!

[cstrombeck]

What kind of reverb are you using? Great tone! BTW

[snaskc]

It was the digitech hendrix pedal on the wind cries mary setting.Thanks

[parisianUK]

Sounds great to me! Which cheap tubes would be good to improve sound?

[loldecepticonlol]

Little Wing comes to mind when I hear this.

[snaskc]

Thanks man,Yeah most of someone's tone comes from there playing(imoh),it helps to have high end gear granted.If SRV played a squire through a squire amp he would still sound out of this world.The modding people are right about this amp tubes and speaker are poor,but it's a 5w fun amp and most of them cant justify the mods with there standard of playing.

[snaskc]

Yup!

[phatfunk1986]

What volume is the amp set at in the vid?

[snaskc]

8,in the high socket.

[Obsession225]

beautiful

[snaskc]

Why thank you man.

[palmster56]

Mate, what guitar you using?

[snaskc]

Buddy guy strat with CS 69's pups.

[miller434]

nice tones man...just seen buddy a couple weeks ago....great show, nice to see someone with great taste on here

[snaskc]

Thanks man,yeah Buddy is the Man!

[Malosovich]

nice video as always.

i've actually turned a few into mp3s to listen to at work. (hope you dont mind)

thanks again

[snaskc]

Thanks man,

how did you make mp3's from youtube vids?

please let me know,thanks.

[tipetu]

Download "youtube downloader".. this program downloads the video file and you may select what format you want it to be downloaded.. mp3 mpeg you name it..

[msecure]

really good. Where i can find feels like a rain tab?. I love this song.

[snaskc]

Thanks,should be on the net,try 911tabs

[ahhhba]

nice. any chance we could see you play it?!

and learning it and like your interpretation the best from what I've heard out here.

nice work man.

[snaskc]

Thanks man but it was improvised,it's just simple slide's and fills in G.

[murda1991]

how are you adding the reverb? I want the exact tone as that haha I'll buy what ever it is

[snaskc]

Hey man,it's the hendrix digitech pedal on the wind cries mary setting.There not great pedals but there's a few nice sounds here and there.Thanks

[murda1991]

Thanks for the quick response I'm definitely going to try and get your setup its amazing

[fastfretsrok]

All i can say is SWEEEET playing man.

[snaskc]

Thank you

[snaskc]

Thanks man

[mikerhd89]

congratulations from greece :P

+ 5 stars

[scorpguitar79]

excellent playing good job!

[snaskc]

Many thanks

[VEW3rd]

Very nice!! Bought one of the little fellas myself about a month ago. I didn't have any complaints about the tone of the original speaker but when you're plugged into the hi gain input at higher volumes the speaker started to complain so I bought a ceramic weber and shazzam!! Anyway really like your touch on that geetar.

[snaskc]

Thanks man

[studio1087]

I have a Blues Junior and I'm looking for a late night noodling amp. I love the tone that you are getting. Have you have any problems with the 600 at all??

Thanks. Great demo.

[snaskc]

Thanks and no problems at all,a lot of people change the speaker and tube etc but i dont hear a major difference.

[EuroZorro]

Fantastic sound. Bright, and clean! Happy New year!

[snaskc]

Many thanks my firend,happy new year to you.

[snaskc]

Thanks man,happy new year

[DrewAnti1960]

that is a good sounding little amp,I like the stock sound with a little reverb,good demo man,peace

[carchario]

Sounds very good to me, Hendrixy tone ? well, at least to my ears :-)

[snaskc]

Thanks man

[MarcusBlacky]

Wow thats really nice.... dunno about rain tho...kinda reminded me more of a lazy sunny day 8)

[snaskc]

We dont get those sunny days here no more!!!!!thanks for the kind words....peace

[skatebueno123]

nice sounds. when i go to collage im gonna get a champ for dorm level sounds. very nice.

i also use cs 69s but right now i use a fender super champ XD modified tube amp. cant beat the sound of fenders. especially when you have a strat with fender pickups and fender tube amp.

peace and keep playin.

[snaskc]

Thanks man........take care

[seatfool]

I have been trying to avoid buying one of these amps for months. Now that I'm putting new pickups in the Strat I'm going to have to get one of these too. Dammit.

[snaskc]

What pickups ya going for?..loved ya new vids BTW.....take care fella

[famouspogs]

sounds abit boxy but its a great tone coming through it.

[dasnad93]

You and your amp sound really great. Dasnad93

[snaskc]

Many thanks

[donpoolitle]

Sound so sweet. You're a nice player! I have 2 questions:

1st: What kind of mic do you use for recording?

2nd: What do you use for reverb?

ci@o

[snaskc]

Thanks man,no mic just taken straight from the dvd camera.Reverb comes from the hendrix digitech pedal.Take care

[TinyMund]

What settings did you have on the pedal? Is it possible to just use the fx on the pedal?

[snaskc]

The pedal was on the number 2 setting and no you cant use the effects seperately.

[TinyMund]

Thanks, snaskc. That set up sounds really good. great playing, too.

[snaskc]

many thanks my friend

[Fab13]

Great sound and playing !

[snaskc]

Many thanks

[m1ck57]
