  1. Yeah my friend has one of those and it sounds really shitty. The lights behind the tubes is a fucking GIMMICK too. The lights behind the tubes are beyond gay.
  2. My worst amp experience ever. I bought one for my first tube amp when they were changing models and could get it at cost. I quickly found out why they were clearing the last 2 out that cheap. Sounded 1000x worse than the Marshall MG I was playing on, just to give some perspective. Oh, and I don't think the distortion channel was running on the power tubes. It doesn't even get to 1/10 the volume of the clean channel, no exageration. Maybe there is a way to get some good tones after performing surgery on this amp, but it was so far gone I wasn't about to try. Yeah, I'm getting the same thing with the distorted channel. It's ridiculous
  3. Yeah they suck, they are really fizzy, i just could not dial it out when i played one Yeah, I could not stand the fizz. I thought some people here swore by these things? If so, what are the setting you've used? I have this POS wasting space next to my Marshalls for the next two weeks.
  4. Oh, and I plugged it into the Jubilee cabinet to make sure it wasn't just the shitty Peavey cab. The Doodoo still sucked.
  5. So my brother's college roommate bought a Crate Blue Voodoo 120 with a Peavey 4x12 the other day and wanted me to pick it up since it was a local Dallas sale. (they're @ Oklahoma State Univ) I pick it up and bring it back to my house thinking maybe it would at least be decent. Hell no, I was wrong. This is one of the worst pieces of junk I've ever had the displeasure of plugging into. By the time you dial out enough of the buzzy distortion on the lead channel you don't have enough volume to really move some air. There is so much unusable gain/treble/bass on this amp it's ridiculous. At one point as a joke I turned the mids down, treble/bass/gain up and it sounded just like a Boss metal zone. I even tried boosting it with my TS9 which only helped it a marginal amount. To top everything it has these gay orange lights behind all of the power tubes to make it look like the tubes are really running full tilt. Fuck that. I've never seen tubes glow that bright. Thank God I had the Jubilee sitting right next to it which absolutely blew the Blue DooDoo out of the water. I highly recommend no one ever buy this piece of trash, and if it weren't for the fact that my bro's roommate is a tool I would talk him into ebaying it. ' alt='>'>
