LA Amp Show ’10 – Goodsell Amplifiers Valpreaux 40 Demoed by Phil X

via premierguitar:

www.premierguitar.com PG’s Joe Coffey is On Location at the 2010 LA Amp Show where he visits the Goodsell Amplifiers room. In this segment, we get to see and hear the Valpreaux 40 (a prototype) in action compliments of guitarist Phil X. The Valpreaux 40 is a 40 watt combo inspired by certain Valco, Supro, and Gretsch combos of the ’60s. It features the relatively obscure 6973 power tube that imparts a different sonic signature from the EL84-based models that comprise the bulk of the Goodsell product line. The Valpreaux has a simplified front-end similar to the Super 17 with the same award-winning tremolo and non-intrusive reverb, as well as an ultra-transparent post-phase inverter master volume. Richard Goodsell believes that this amplifier, if for no other reason, should exist to be matched with a Telecaster in the bridge position because of its ultra-high clean headroom.

www.premierguitar.com PG’s Joe Coffey is On Location at the 2010 LA Amp Show where he visits the Tungsten Amps room. In this segment, we get up close and personal with Tungsten’s 30 watt combo, the Buckwheat. Tungsten’s approach to building amplifiers is to follow in the footsteps of the Fender tweed designs of the mid- to late-50s focusing on compression, sag, and a complimentary mid-range tonality with various dynamic levels. The Buckwheat is a 30 watt combo driven by 6L6 power tubes and shares the same preamp and voicing as Tungsten’s smaller combo–the Crema Wheat by having 2-12AX7 preamp tubes and a GZ34 rectifier tube.

www.premierguitar.com PG’s Joe Coffey is On Location at the 2010 LA Amp Show where he swings by the WattGrinder room. In this segment, we get to hear the latest WattGrinder ToneGrinder X100 tube devices in action. These tube replacements are neither solid-state or vacuum, but rather what WattGrinder’s Daryl Ford describes as non-glass, non-vacuum 12AX7 tube devices. There are four models in two different series—the Expanded Output Series and the recently released X100 Custom Series. Keep an eye out for our video demo of these devices. “The idea of ToneGrinder is to open up the frequency, the dynamic range, the amplifier’s capability to give player’s the most out of their equipment,” Ford told us.

www.premierguitar.com PG’s Chris Kies is On Location at the 2010 LA Amp Show where he visits the Scumback Speakers room. In this segment, we get to check out Scumback’s M75 65W speaker demoed by a Friedman Naked head. Scumback describes the M75 as being a warm, detailed midrange enhanced guitar speaker with smooth overdrive and distortion tones. Great sound right out of the box due to factory aging, design and break-in procedures. This is a superb tone and sound recreation of the G12M Pre Rola era “Greenback” that was used in Marshall stacks and combos, and many other British amps of the era such as Vox, Orange, Sound City.
