man it's half the video before he even plugs it in!!! plus how can you tell what it really sounds like when you can hear pick on the strings in the room.... i wish they only used the mic on the cab!! sorry but i had to add my 2 cents worth!!

Is that a Silvertone 1485 head? Great sounding head. Didn't even watch the video

Agreed -- and then only play three bar chords.

Ok, it's a pretty abysmal video, but what do you guys thing about this model?
Somewhere i heard it's the Thickfreakness fuzz...
I picked up one a while back and thought it was OK, soundwise...a bit on the distortion side.
not necessarily a bad thing...
i i tend to like the earlier, splattier Maestro's
but i might have to give it another try...

it's hard to tell what the pedal sounds like from the video..... those silvertone heads are pretty distorted already and the pick noise is fairly annoying.... i'd love to try one though! maybe they sound better into a cooking amp......

iirc it's the same as the hard setting on the fuzztain or is that not true?
