Members madrigal77 Posted January 2, 2013 Members Share Posted January 2, 2013 Saw these over on Rog Tolk and thought I'd share.The combos kind of look cheap, like a B52 or something. They are renders though, so the real deal might look better. I'm sure they will sound killer though and built in reverb is nice. Rafs next amp?

Members Dr_Kuh Posted January 2, 2013 Members Share Posted January 2, 2013 I'm really thinking about getting a yellow/black one of that guitars. The only thing I dislike is the giant EVH logo. The Charvel artist series headstocks looked better imho. Nice price though. Made in Ensenada I see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ENdtime Posted January 2, 2013 Members Share Posted January 2, 2013 Yeah, the old pv 2x12 combo had spring reverb as well.. Honestly, after using it as a combo for umpteen million years, I built a headshell and use it as a head. I wonder if the dimensions are similar to the PV.. It was a little thin.. I want to say 10 or 11 inches deep..So, while it did sound great, once you put it thru a bigger 2x12 or 4x12 it became clear it didn't have near the depth and low end.. This one looks a little weird. With the way the front looks, it appears like the chassis may game down into the cab..? More than likely the front of the cab is proportioned so that just the controls are in it's own area and the speakers and chassis aren't in the same part of the amp.. Otherwise, that can't be good for the tubes and tube rattle to have them in there with the speakers..lol The guitars? Meh.. I guess it's about time he cashed in on that stripped old strat thru his brand, but the Wolfgang is a far superior guitar than just a standard old Basswood body strat.. Although, that type of guitar does sound nice. My old fender hm strat is Basswood and I have the evh Frankenstein in there and it sounds great.

Members nightflameauto Posted January 2, 2013 Members Share Posted January 2, 2013 That combo looks like it has massive amounts of space/air in the sealed portion. It probably will sound good, but I'd hate to lug it around anywhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause there is no way they fit all the tubes, transformers etc up in they little space up top.. And to have that shit hang down in the speaker/cab portion doesn't seem like a good design.. AS far as lugging it around. It looks like they put recessed handles in it finally but otherwise come on, just man up.. ! Yeah, I'm being that guy... Lol.. I carried the PV combo(that's also over 80lbs) around all the time.. It's easiest to pick it up with one arm on the side and the other hand on the bottom. I never dropped it once.. I honestly just took it as a little cardio or related it to some part of my job. No biggie.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My xxx 212 is a battleship anchor, so was the 5150 combo too. Good to see Fender is keeping up the tradition with the latest EVH amps!

Members guitarbilly74 Posted January 2, 2013 Members Share Posted January 2, 2013 I would definitely go for a non-striped version of that guitar. Hopefully they will eventually also release it in solid colors for a bit less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
