Members JBecker Posted January 30, 2010 Members Share Posted January 30, 2010 Played a Matchless Avenger today at Guitar Center. One of the most lovely clean sounds I've ever heard, really. Just to die for. But LOUD. Loud as all hell. The switchable master volume is totally useless, and there is a metric ton of headroom in this amp. Couldn't even get the slightest breakup going at volumes I thought were really going to piss off the store. If you've got bucks, and you're looking for a killer tone as a basis for pedal use, this amp would be real hard to beat. I was surprised at the sheer power and clarity of the low end of this 1x12" open back EL84 amp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members breakingstring Posted January 31, 2010 Members Share Posted January 31, 2010 I'd love to play a Matchless. I've only heard one in person once, and it sounded pretty great. However, they are insane money (here, at least) and I'm feeling poor as I just got a new amp, so it's probably best I don't! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
