Thomann's Guitars & Basses | 6 years ago

Ampmakers tend to go into pedalboard preamp land these days quite a bit so we thought we should just compare them and see who makes the best amp in a box? Our contestants are the REVV G3, the Bogner Überschall, the Friedman BE-OD, the Bogner Ecstasy Red and the Diezel VH4 pedals. There are three rounds: First, we just used them as drive pedals into the front of the amp, second they went straight into the poweramp and finally we built a pedalboard-friendly rig only adding a Mooer Radar IR loader to the equation. Let us know which one you liked best!
