Blackheart BH100H HotHead

Post by Mike »

So they announced a 100W 2 channel head aswell. Hilariously they used the wacky Channel names Loud and Effin' Loud (oh dear).

It sounds arse because it's a gearwire video (but of course). But I think this could be a really cheap first tube amp for some folks:

Nice to see they're not just ripping off the Valve Junior but do have some ideas of their own.

The whole premise of their company is still lame though.

I've been eying up these (and just about every other amp combination in the world also) lately - Mike, I may have a longwinded stupid noob amp choice question for you (and whoever else fancies chiming in) soon, if that's OK?

Dude. We love those kinds of posts around here.

The Peavey Windsor is a killer amp if you have no regard for clean tone whatsoever, they had them for like £199 recently. Barmy.

You asked for it:

succinct question here, that I'm not at all nervous about posting.

Or, to paraphrase "I've got lovely guitars and pedals, but know nish about amps.Please mock me."

The sound of a nasty accident as you fumble your colostomy bag?

As a matter of interest, what don't you like about their company premise? I thought they were quite cool for acknowleding and encouraging modders and the like.

But, as we've already proved, I know nothing about amps.

You need to see the promo video they had. Something about selling your soul to the devil for rock and bitches.

All the plot and stylings of a porn film, sans a decent wank.

Yes. Oddly unsatisfying.
