EVH 5150 Iconic Series 15W 1x10 Tube Guitar Combo Amp Ivory

Absolutely love this amp. Been waiting awhile to purchase. My Gibson LP Standard sounds absolutely crushing or melodic depending on what you set gain and resonance to.

Was excited to get this EVH 5150. Had it shipped to the store; picked it up & took it home. Unpacked and plugged it in. Very disappointed to find it produced no sound at all, even though the indicator lights lit up. Adjusted the dials; no response. Boxed it up and returned the amp back to the store for a refund.

This amp sounds awesome. It's very loud too. Luckily there is a 1/4 power level switch. I prefer keeping it on full power most of the time. Thanks to the master volume, you can get really nice clean tones on Channel 1. I've yet to play a single coil through it, but I imagine it would sound great, giving you some Fenderish tones. The overdrive on Channel 1 is very smooth all the way to 10. Channel 2 I would expect, is for melting faces. Use the Burn Button and you'll be melting entire audiences. The EQ works well, and the Resonance and Presence smooth out those highs and lows. The reverb is okay. No spring reverb here. Oh yeah, playing Van Halen through this amp does sound great. It will take you from 1978 to Van Hagar in under 60 seconds. I'm no Eddie, but I can play a little. There is an effects loop. I have not tried it yet. So, if you want a tube amp that's not vintage/boutique expensive, and you want a little more umph than one of those clean sounding amps. Get this. You can play anything from The Bee Gees to The Kinks, to Chicago, to Steely Dan, to The Allman Brothers, to VH, to Ozzy, to Scorpion and even heavier. According to some dude on YouTube, this amp chugs. Remember, Joe Walsh is an Analog Man.

This is one Nice Amp it really sounds great just unbelievable. I really like the Distortion and the Clean is great reminds me of my old USA made Fender Deluxe. I have no complaints it is Awesome for my use.Hopefully will last a life time. I would recommend this Amp!

Love the easy of use. I have a very basic use for personal enjoyment and this amp is very easy and well laid out for my purposes.

When I first tried this amp out, I was blown away by the sound and power this 15w 1x10 had. Been in the market for a tube amp for a while and didn't need anything big since I play for a hobby, not a gigging player. I got tired of my Marshall solid state and never thought of a 5150 amp till I saw a review online for it and was curious. So a few months later I ended up buying one and do not regret it. This has a 1/4 power switch for your bedroom playing and it's still loud. It has a clean channel with an overdrive switch and a overdrive channel with a burn switch for those really heavy and soaring leads. Really happy with this amp and think it's great for hard rock and metal from the 80's and 90's and maybe even today's if you tweak it right.
