  • Hey Rivera guys, do the 5 and the 6 have the same preamp circuit?

    The 6 sounds "smoother" than the 5. I dont know that the 6 would cut through for hard rock.

    The 6 also seems to have more breakup or hair. Is this jsut the power tube differences?

    Thanks for your time and great demos.

  • The Venus 5 has one more gain stage to channel 1, giving it way more gain.

  • This amp sounds beautiful, that's a given, but it LOOKS incredible! It's one of hte best looking amps I've seen, hats off to the designers. Many thx for the vid too!

  • Thank you.

see all

  • I'm going to have a bon fire tonight and throw all of my instruments in the fire. I can't believe how much I suck, compared to this talented mf!

  • I would never imagine myself saying that but I have to admit that the Fender Stratocaster was by far the best sounding guitar in them :O I think I'm beginning to see why so many famous players don't give their Stratocasters up..

  • man, u play some awesome tunes!:) keep it up

  • what is the first song/ clean tone song

  • This is truely the best sounding brand for rock music! I can't believe how far they stand out. And the price is decent. Not fucked up like some ridiculous boutique losers! Hail!

  • its most likely heavily compressed and edited after the recording. plus mics change the sound anyway.

  • Yup. There is a trick - his hands, made by god.

  • i like ur playing!

  • There HAS to be a trick here. NO amp sounds this awsome. COME ON.

  • Niiice clean tone
