Mesa Boogie Blue Angel (Tone Pass 2024)

The Blue Angel is a vintage inspired amplifier from Mesa Boogie capable of a wide variety of Fender-esque tones. Ours is a 4×10 combo, which immediately makes us think ‘Mid-60’s Super Reverb’. But the Blue Angel is capable of much more. It has the ability to run in 6V6 mode (15 watts), EL84 mode (33 watts) or Linked (38 watts). We love the EL84 mode as it tightens things up and gives the amp a bit more chime.

Matchless HC30 (Tone Pass 2024)

The C-30 is the flagship amplifier from Matchless, capable of a huge variety of tones via it’s two channels (which can also be jumped together). The 12ax7 channel features cleaner headroom and beautiful chime, while the EF86 channel sounds fuller and has more gain. This C-30 is also quite possible the finest pedal platform amplifier in the world.

Jackson Scarlett (Tone Pass 2024)

The Scarlett is the signature amp for Nigel Hendroff of Hillsong Worship. Lots of chime and character – the Scarlett reminds us of classic AC30 amplifiers, and it excels as a pedal platform. The matching Jackson cab is ported and features a Celestion Gold. We also captured this amp through a Matchless 2×12 cab loaded with mis-matched Creamback speakers.
