Amalgam Audio GBSN G6 NAM Essential DI

This little amp packs a surprising punch, especially when miked up. It has a slightly dark, bold, punchy an a bit rude character that goes well together with the built in P12R speaker.

It has a big low-end punch that holds together surprisingly well until decent crunch levels, where it especially excells in our view. In fact this amp delivers some of our favorite crunch tones from any amp. It has a very nice compression and a smooth feel on single note runs and a nice, round punchy attack on chords. Characterful clean and Edge of breakup tones and with an EQ or pedal in front it forks out beautiful drive and lead tones.

We consider it to be a "character amp", meaning for most it might not be a daily driver, but on the other hand the character of this one is so musical and balanced between quirky and usable that it might as well become a daily driver.

It takes boosts and pedals phenomenally well and it quickly has become one of our favorite, if not THE favorite amp for crunch and driven tones, battling for the first spot with the mighty Super Bass.

The set includes 22 captures ranging from clean to lead. Please refer to the table under the product pics for detailed info on each capture.
