Although I usually use a 1x12 or 2x10 with the Fuchs 30 this Dr Z 4x10 has a huge tone and is ideal for larger venues.

yes,
I got it in the UK for about £100...
As you say a bit pricey but only the cost of a cheap pedal.
It's the same one as used by Matt Schofield and many others.

I have a EV12L which I use with my Fuchs ODS.
As you say it can be a bit toppy.
I use a "Clearsonic" acoustic screen to calm it down, and it also allows me to crank the amp, even in small venues.
Big advantage is you can remove it if the hall is soacking up the top.

By now I have usually moved onto another amp but I really don't have a wish list for this little amp. It's great for what I do i.e blues in small/medium clubs/pubs. With the 1x12 EV12L cab the whole kit fits into the boot of my little Modus. And no pedal board. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGNcoz9...

Hi Mark, Yes, she's lovely :wink: The first 24 bars was neck p/u, last 12 bars was bridge humbucker, seymour Duncan '59 The EV12L is 100db so yes my little ODS 30 has stacks of headroom. I normally use a 2x10 cab which has Eminence Ragin Cajin which are also 100db so is about the same volume. I woul...

Here is my FUCHS again but this time through a little 1x12 cab loaded with an old EV12L. I'm also using a Clearsonic acoustic screen so I can crank the amp without deafening the front row No pedals.

John, Sounds great, congratulations. BTW, did you buy it from a UK retailer? (the amp I mean, not the bass player! :lol: ) Cheers, Paul. Hi Paul, I bought it from Real Guitars in Germany. http://www.realguitars.de/ Ulli shipped it over to the UK ..... The bass player I have on loan for just the eve...

Living in Camp San Diego, I've only heard one Fuchs live. With my own Dumbling experiences, I was surprised at how good a strat amp it was. That's not a real high gain tone on the video. What's your setting? OD or clean w/w/out boost? (Hazarding a guess, it sounds like straight clean to me.) Hi, Ye...

yes, she's lovely

Yes, I do play without a pick, depends on the songs or where I am in the solo. Start with fingers & change to pick at the end during slow blues slow etc.

Straight into the amp.
I dropped my plectrum at the beginning and someone in the audience run up and gave me theirs.
I later bent down & retrieved my plectrum.
It's amazing how the tone changes when I get my own plectrum back
No pedals ...

ha ha. No just good friends
