craig deadenstereo Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 I just got my custom Matamp MiniMat today. It's a 2W head with a footswitchable boost (built around an MXR Microamp) and a DI.As you can see, it's handbuilt.As for sounds: It has a lovely palette of clean sounds to go through. It overdrives nicely, though to get more than a light crunch you'll need a pedal.The boost is nice to add more presence/ a bit more overdrive. It's a bit honky full up, but roll it down to 3/4s and it's all groovy.Anyway it's cool, and I shall spend the afternoon worshipping the "BULL GOD".Craigp.s. That's my new Gibson Flying V too - which is a sweet guitar. Picked it up for 275 earlier this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest b-bert Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 That looks cool, is the cab from the same company?Is it loud enough? (obviously not for gigging) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig deadenstereo Posted December 2, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 yeah, it's pretty loud. It has a master volume on the back though - a kid of attenuator.The cab is from the same company. they're cool - check 'em out - www.matamp.co.uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest DustyDeviada Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 Great price on the V! Where did you get it from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig deadenstereo Posted December 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2005 Great price on the V! Where did you get it from?I got it off a guy on the Harmony-Central Amp Forum. Couldn't really afford it, but neither could I pass up such a killer deal.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DustyDeviada Posted December 8, 2005 Report Share Posted December 8, 2005 Given that my name is actually Matt, I really should get one of these.Do you think they would build one that says "MattAmp"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
...mole... Posted December 15, 2005 Report Share Posted December 15, 2005 Just received my one today and im very impressed with itdidnt expect it to be so loud and it just sounds great.im using my DS-1 to give the overdrive a boost at the moment and it sounds awesome for lead stuff. even without the DS-1 the in-built boost does give it a nice crunch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
