Hm, ich glaub wenn ich mir einen neuen Amp hole, dann doch direkt einen größeren den man später auf eventuellen Gigs auch gut gebrauchen kann.
Ich hab mich die halbe Nacht (*g*) durch Erfahrungsberichte gewühlt und bin schließlich auf diesen Amp gestoßen:
Peavey Transtube 212 EFX ! Das Teil scheint ja echt der Hammer zu sein. Ich habe davon ca. 40 Bewertungen gefunden und keine davon ging unter 7/10 bzw. 4/5 Sternen!
Einen Bericht möchte ich mal zitieren:
\"
Ive owned any and every amp ever made it seems. I have been a hardline Marshall, Mesa, Soldano guy for the past 15 years. Recently I started getting back into the band scene, and I started looking at tube amps. What I found, is that anything Marshall these days really sucks and is WAY overpriced. (Same for Mesa or Soldano for that matter!) I simply refuse to pay $1,000+ dollars so I can say my amp was made in England or that it has tubes. So I was left with little choices in what I could get. I owned a Line 6 Flextone II, but it was very unreliable, and the sound began to actually hurt my ears at high volumes. I also hated the digital clipping that occured during quick chord changes.
Peaveys have always been a joke to me. We used to laugh at the poor saps who couldnt afford Marshalls that got stuck with a Peavey. The distortions always sounded like a swarm of pissed off bees. I was looking for a good practice amp the other day, and was pretty dissapointed. I tried a Line 6 Flextone IIs again, a Tech 21, Fender Cyber-Twin, and Mesa Nomad, and they just didnt have what I needed. I wanted a (tubeless) amp that had a killer distortion, some basic effects I wouldnt need a rack to keep them in, and I really wanted an excellent sound. On a whim I plugged in to the Transformer 212, and thought it sounded okay, but the price was a little too high for a Peavey. I then tried the new XXL head, but didnt want the hassles of a half stack in my house.
As a last resort, I tried the Transtube 212 EFX and was strangely impressed. A Peavey that sounded good? This couldnt be right. So I had my salesman put me in a quiet room with it for an hour, and I couldnt believe what I was hearing! I really think that Peavys marketing leaves a lot to be desired, because these amps are a well kept secret. I really wish theyd change their look and try to modernize thier image, becase the amps they make noe arent much different from those of 10-15 years ago, and I think that the legacy of thier old amps still follows them today becase of it. If you are looking for a versatile, reliable amp with a good sound and some effects give this amp a try. If you can get over the name on the grill, you might just like it.
Its well worth the cost of amps 3 times the money.\"
Und wegen der Lautstärke für zu Hause hab ich da auch was tolles gefunden:
\"Power Dynamics Function (10%-100%): The power dynamics function is really cool for guys like me that live in an apartmentl; cant play loud; but still desire to have the sound quality of an amp cranked up really loud.\"
Der kostet zwar in Deutschland 735 Steine, aber scheint mir so ein Amp zu sein, mit dem man überall zufrieden sein kann, ob zu Hause, im Proberaum oder sogar auf Gigs. Aus Amerika könnte man ihn allerdings für \"nur\" 520$ (590€) kriegen. Ist halt nur die Frage wie das mit Versand und eventuellem Zoll im Endeffekt mit dem Preis aussieht?
Was haltet ihr von dem Amp? Er ist zwar zugegebenermaßen nicht ganz billig, aber nach diesem Kauf bräuchte ich mir wahrscheinlich nie mehr Gedanken um einen neuen Amp zu machen, oder?
