NGEARD: Sovtek MIG100

[D-Day]

mig100 is awesome! I really miss mine. Heavy duty low end and a total pedal horse.

[Holy Schnikes]

I think this is going to be my next amp.
Now, if only I can find a nice one for around $500.

There's a 50w Midget in Denton for $400. If I didn't JUST buy a V4...

I have a feeling the 50w will just increase GAS for the 100w.
There's a 100w on CL here for $500 but THE DUDE NEVER RESPONDS.

UGH.

JUST, UGH.

Also, I think I should have gone for a 50w amp. Already blew a speaker in my 4x12.

The V4 is possibly the loudest amp I've ever owned. Speakers don't stand a chance.

I'm probably gonna buy new speakers for it, the ones in there were pretty shit to begin with, but I got the cab for nothing. Thinking 65w is probably gonna be the minimum.

Still, probably just gonna use my PA-135 into that, and use the V4 into an 8x10.

i love my midget 50 & MIG100B!

alexanderwolf what's wrong w/ your hi-flier?

Just worried about taking it on tour, I think.

In unrelated news -- heard Alex jamming the MIG last night. Sounded really good.

[D.o.S.]

They're "bootleg"/inspired by JCM800's. Of course they sound good.

I love my 100H, even though It's now my backup.

I never thought my 100H sounded like an 800. I would set mine up to where it sounded almost identical to a V4. Master almost all the way up, pre-gain around 3-4, low end heavy. It was the reason I looked out for a V4 and ended up selling the Mig once I picked up a V4 and compared them. I wish I wouldn't of though. I much prefer a Mig over a V4 now days. That was a long time ago

So, can this just turn into a general love for Sovtek Mig thread? Maybe it'll inspire me to pick one up again, who knows. I should just stop talking, I don't need another amp

The 50s and 100s are Bassmen...Bassmans...
The Mig60 is the JCM800 clone.

[AlexanderWOLF]

The hiflier needed about $150 in it to get it where I wanted. Plus I didn't want to tour with something so fragile. I traded it for a jaZzmaster and some cash.

Choice.

[AlexanderWOLF]

I think I want to sell my Ampeg r50h with cab and get a mig60

Also I picked up a 15 watt Orange Crush today

I hate the dirty channel except on light gain. But the clean rules with pedals and headphones.

Love my MIG100!



Easily my favourite amp I have owned.

[chillerthanmost]

Nice! Never saw a red one.

I had to scroll far back on my photobucket to find a pic of my old one. Miss it dearly:

Here's my gig set up for now


Blacktop Jazzmaster -> Lime Green Cable ->TU2 ->OCD->RAT->Holy Grail -> Hot pink cable -> Sovtek MIG100 HIGH GAIN input -> Avatar 4x12

cable color matters.

I'd heard that the 50 and the 60 were the Bassmen.


Also, full disclosure, mine is tentatively for sale.

[D.o.S.]

Also, that Red one is gorgeous.
