I'm a huge fan of the futuristic/retro thing they're going for right now, definitely agree it can be marmite though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassman68 Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Not my cup of PG, Really not into the retro styling but I’m sure Mr Pratt will sound wonderful through it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eude Posted October 14, 2021 Share Posted October 14, 2021 Am I alone in thinking, that of they could somehow make that Guy Pratt amp (G Pramp) smaller, maybe even by just a third all over, even if it was still heavy, they would sell a bunch more?

He's playing with Saucerful Of Secrets, at the moment, so he's looking for a 60s look (i.e. Wem columns and Selmer amp). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BruceBass3901 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Really digging the style of it, but reading the blurb on the website it seems to be an ABM EVO-IV with a couple of controls shifted to pre-determined levels via the footswitch and some very specific requirements of the Taurus pedals. Obviously, this was designed with a very specific user-case in mind, and rightfully so for Guy, but this isn't jumping out to me as something to add to my rig over my ABM EVO-IV.

I'm surprised they came out with a 600w version when Guy has been using ABM900's. I do like the look but the price tag isn't moving me to ditch my EVO-IV for it.

Actually I was just thinkig the same. It's not much different from an ABM, I think the only difference is the Taurus input. Besides, I thought there was no comp nor sub-harmonics (which I'd prefer, because I don't use any of that in my amp) but it seems that the amp has both, but not they are not configurable, which I think it's worse. I cannot say that I wouldn't buy one, but for that amount of money, I'd probably get a Dual VU ABM. PS Maybe the valve drive is different. I'm not sure about that.
