Members poosis Posted October 14, 2005 Members Share Posted October 14, 2005 In my search for a new combo I find myself intrigued by this amp. Does anyone here own one and, if so, what are your thoughts on the amp in general? Secondly, anyone in the UK know of shops which have these in stock? My recent trawl of Edinburgh & Glasgow guitar shops didn't reveal any, but I'm willing to travel to try one out. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members kannibul Posted October 14, 2005 Members Share Posted October 14, 2005 I played one in a store - ended up owning a Rockerverb 100 (I like heads more than combos) So, I guess that should say something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members poosis Posted October 15, 2005 Author Members Share Posted October 15, 2005 Thanks, it's a combo I'm looking for (got a Matamp head to cover the higher power stuff) so the 100w is not really for me - looks like a nice amp though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members crimson on pink Posted October 15, 2005 Members Share Posted October 15, 2005 it's the only combo i play now at the store in town, alongside the dr. z maz 38 combo. the orange is my fav high gain or rock style amp on the market right now.

Members cobrahead1030 Posted October 16, 2005 Members Share Posted October 16, 2005 played an orange 'rocker 30' 1x12 combo today... VERY cool combo amp (for $900 it better be!!!) 30 watts (class A i think), open back, with a celestion V30 grabbed an old washburn LP copy with a duncan JB/59 set off the wall of the shop, and went to the clean channel first...i was rather surpised to find that the clean channel actually bypassed the EQ and thought to myself "they better have dialed this thing in RIGHT" and man did they ever...this had to be one of the most beautiful, singing, cleans i've ever played...for a solid 5 minutes i found myself playing with this channel...then had to grab a heritage 335 to play thru it the clean channel alone was worth the amp IMO then i grabbed the washburn again to check out the dirty channel...VERY nice indeed, pretty versatile channel as well...done everything from paige style biting OD, some decent EVH style tones, all the way up to early slayer kinda stuff...pretty dark voiced, probably wouldn't have the bright punchiness for AC/DC or the like but for the other tones mentioned above it screamed with some KILLER heavy rock tube tone i'd imagine with a good OD pedal you could even get into modern metal territory with this thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Spewbag Posted October 16, 2005 Members Share Posted October 16, 2005 Played a Rocker Fifty 2X12 today and thought the clean channel was nice but thought the dirty channel was just meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
