BigWheeledWagon Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Tell me about these. Especially the 1W and 5W models. Alternate thread title: talk me out of buying a new 1W/5W Blackheart amp Looks like musician's friend has a scratch and dent sale going on for the 5W model. Don't know much about Blackhearts, though. If you're looking for a 5W amp, though, and if you have a little more cash, may I recommend the Swart Space Tone?: http://www.swartamps.com/amplifiers_tweed_tone_6v6se.htm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kalle Posted September 27, 2008 Share Posted September 27, 2008 Swart's are so fantastic. Tweedy was using one on a tour about two or three years ago as well, loooooove that overdrive. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Awesome tone (it also helped that he's an awesome guitarist). He had a bunch of really great boutique items including a Fulltone Tape Echo, which also sounded amazing, and a custom shop tele . I think a couple of weeks later all his gear was stolen -- a real shame. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jmacomber68w Posted October 19, 2008 Share Posted October 19, 2008 I know crate has lowered the price on their v series, you can get a 5w for 99.99 and a 15w for 149.99 if you are looking for other options, also blackheart is under crate, so im not sure how different the sounds will be between the two series of amps Quote Link to post Share on other sites
