Members rememberduane Posted September 2, 2006 Members Share Posted September 2, 2006 I'm considering getting one. Can't beat a one-knob channel, and having the gain on tap for fusion-type stuff for me if I want it. I mean.. NMV and MV in the same amp rocks for me. Really hard. Opinions on the amp?

Members Esperanto Posted September 2, 2006 Members Share Posted September 2, 2006 the rocker 30 is great for fusiony type stuff just like you described...it has a lot of gain but is always tasteful and thick...it can do hard rock like judas priest or early metallica but is still very at home with mellow jazz...especially the natural channel..but be prepared to tweak your guitars because the natural channel relies heavily on having perfect intonation...great sounding heavy guage strings....proper pickup height etc...its very picky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically, ITS THE {censored}! There's not that much to it man, its great. For me, its the perfect clean to mid-gain amp. I don't need uber-high-gain, so this one is perfect. The rocker will get more gain than the AD, but you just can't beat a cathode el84 amp cranked!!11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info! If it helps, I plugged my strat (10s) into a rocker 30 and was quite impressed. But, and I have to say this....I was WAY more impressed by the AD40 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members illini Posted September 5, 2006 Members Share Posted September 5, 2006 I have the Rocker 30 Head and 412 cab with V-30's. I got this amp on a trade, and have been very surprised by it. The biggest surprise was that with the 412 cab I can get it to sound almost identical to my Marshall JMP 2203. You would be hard pressed to notice a difference standing in front of it. I have a Tonebone Switchbone, so I can go back and forth between the two. With a band no one would notice a difference. I want to make some clips, because my guess is that they would sound more different on tape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
