Blackheart Amps

[fibredrive]

technically the sales guy reserved it for me oredi...but...shucks he realized thereafter cannot sell. sigh...

yep it's in SGD. no worries.

 

[Dinky]

oh dang!i thought the display was on sale.looks so tempting.and since you mentioned the price....kinda cheap!

 

[fibredrive]

well i guess it is for a tube amp. it's USD$149 at MF etc...plus shipping and all suppsoe it's pretty close.

 

[capt_oreo]

so he did'nt mentioned how long the order will take? think will head down and order also..

 

[fibredrive]

he said it's about a month but no guarantees...

 

[fibredrive]

sweet deal! Ron (the sales dude) went out of his way to ask the distributor to let me have the amp. Am going down to collect later today!! whoopee!

hey fibredrive
how does it compare to the valve junior?
some other forums says its something like a modded valve junior.
are the cleans comparable?

 

[jdawg]

Are they selling it in local voltage or US (i.e. 110V)?

hiya, sorry haven't played the valve junior before.

local i believe. i didn't see any step-up? transformer around...

 

[WestPunx]

$300 and $270 in sgd? not including gst? sorry if I sounded dumb.

step down bro to step the voltage output from the mains down to 110

congrats on your amp! so when are we getting a taste of it? let's meet up with ben at urs la...he's got some new stuff too.

 

[Phil]

Sounds interesting. So is the store going to bring more in? Considering how difficult it is for Fibredrive to get just one unit.

 

[mellapong]

Very interesting I kinda want to get one too.

 

[fibredrive]

hi folks, i believe that they will be bringing in one more unit. but if you want, it's best to place your orders now to get it in a month thereabouts. like i mentioned before, it's already backordered till month's end in MF etc.

i don't really know how to describe the sound, perhaps you could check out the online clips or if i have time i will record some samples. suffice to say i favor the cleans (has that little breakup i am looking for, very classic rock) over my JSX, which is too clean imho. love the 5w pentode channel best. unbelievable price and looks to boot.

anytime la. come on over and bring your arsenal of pedals! i got no more pedals. sold everything for a rack unit. haha. sms me to arrange time.

 

[WestPunx]

Is there a gain channel?

 

[fibredrive]

hiya,

nope. there's only BASS/MID/TREBLE and VOL as well as the 5W/3W switch. going to get a modded DS1 or something to place up front for more sonic possibilities. heh.

 

[fibredrive]

mebbe sub can come by and do a review. heh.

 

[j_m_s]
