Members rememberduane Posted September 30, 2006 Members Share Posted September 30, 2006 Can you put 6L6s in them like you can with the Vicky champ? How much do they weigh typically? I'm considering getting one to go along with my DRRI. Good idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love how you guys bitch, but then I make an amp thread, and boom, it plummets. I guess this really is the forum of the pimple-faced metalhead.

Members DeathMonkey Posted October 1, 2006 Members Share Posted October 1, 2006 Originally posted by Big Hair I don't think I have ever seen a Victoria in the UK I don't know anything about Victorias except to say that I think that they are somewhat overrated as far as their competition goes. I appreciate that they were on the forfront o fthe Vintage craze of the Nineties, but check out Carr and Louis electric, both of whom make more versatile amps for around the same price range (or less). Used Top Hats are also a good alternative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used Top Hats are also a good alternative. Not if you want tweed tone. I don't WANT versatility, nor do I want a master volume. I want pure, unadultered, tweed tone. Guitar -> amp with fingers, pickups, and volume/tone controls being my "versatility". I've {censored}ed around with enough amps to know that the more knobs something has, the less I like it.

Members DeathMonkey Posted October 1, 2006 Members Share Posted October 1, 2006 Then check out Louis Electric - he has made signature amps for such tweed snobs as Keith Richard, Duke Robillard, and Danny Gatton. http://www.louisamps.com/ I heard a couple at NAMM a few years ago, and I was absolutely floored. I have heard Victorias (I did live in Nashville), and while they are certainly great amps, I have just never been that impressed, for the money.

I have been very impressed with Victoria, specifically the 1x12 champ and Deluxe. I started this thread more to prove a point than anything. I looooove Vicky amps. What point, exactly, were you trying to prove? The only thing that I have seen proven in here is that you have a serious hard-on for Mega and that you like to bitch...a lot. You know that HC is a different atmosphere than TGP, and yet you act like it is a surprise that you don`t get responses in regards to a low wattage tweed clone. Then, after acting surprised, you go on to bitch and make like it is some grand revelataion that a significant number of people on this board play heavier music! Are you next going to reveal that the earth is the third planet from trhe sun?I don`t really understand your grand frustration with HC...Its really like going to CBGBs and being pissed that you aren`t hearing classical baroque. There may be a number of people in the crowd who enjoy classical baroque (i.e., I personally can appreciate a Tweed clone, I think there are some cool tones to be had), but they generally aren`t upset that it is not what they are currently hearing. And if they are, they go somewhere else.It is a obvious fact, the demographics of this board and TGP are strikingly different. Nobody seems to find this a surprise but you. Like many other people on this board, I also post over at TGP but unlike you, I understand that there are differences. For example, with this thread I would have posted it here and cross posted it over at TGP. Now, I wouldn`t have expected much response here, but I still would have bumped it a few times. You did that, but you also got your panties all in a yeast laden knot in doing so. So I suppose the basic message of what I am trying to get across to you is to chill the {censored} out and stop being such a douche nozzle over something as insignificant as a message board.You are correct, there should be a little more on topic banter here, but you can`t fault people for not replying to your thread when they have no experience with what you are talking about. This is not a difficult concept, and I believe once you realize this life will get a bit easier for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then he starts a thread about an amp that not very many people own, or have even played, and he gets pissed. What a {censored}ing joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
