Been a while, guys. I'm running it into a Bugera V22, with a Jaguar.

Welp, my Fender Blender RI is here and I love it. The volume drop is a lot less noticeable when it's the first in line, but it's still a bit odd. It's a totally rounded, bassy pedal, if not a bit muddy. Either way, I would by no means call it a mosquito fuzz. The Blue Box, on the other hand, is a li...

Well this is weird, because I ordered both a fender blender AND a blue box.

And they should be here TODAY.

I ordered a Fender Blender RI, and it should be getting here today. I'll mod it if I have any serious problems with the volume drop, but nevertheless I'll come back with some opinions.

I've played them a few times, and they certainly surprised me. Generally when I think low-wattage amps, I think muddy - but this was really clean and sharp, if I remember correctly.

As far as how this forum regards them, I think Mike had nothing but good things to say about them a while ago.

I'm so in love with those department store guitars, shame that I've never found one that I felt right in buying.

I'm in your exact position right now, including intense love for Jeff Mangum, but you probably have more money than I do. This might work out well for you, cheap archtop, but no neck pickup. You could probably put one in, though, right? http://www.guitar-museum.com/guitar-15376-1965-Vintage-Acoustic...

I've been interested in acquiring a small bodied acoustic, as well. I have no experience, but I remember somebody recommending these here, they look pretty nice:

So, I don't know how you guys take pointless bumps, but here goes: I bought a V22. Decided on a V22 instead of a V55 'cause a combo with lower wattage will probably suit me better for now. Also, a V55 with a small Epiphone Cab looks like cock. Pics later if there's any interest, I haven't even playe...

Your question is completely on topic as far as i'm concerned, I have the same question myself as im seriously considering one of the two amps. I prefer to go the route of the head and cab rather than a combo. With a head you have the choice of what speaker you want to run it through where as a comb...

Very glad to hear you dig that Bugera, I haven't seen many people commenting on the V22s around here. I haven't gotten the chance to try one out, but I'm considering picking one up in a week or two. Though I've serious deliberations about whether or not I'd be better off with the V22 combo, or the V...

There's one adaptor, one wire, and a bunch of little plugs along the way that go into each of the pedals.
Maybe this'll help:

Oh, right. I'm still getting into the habit of looking up every badass guitar I see on this forum on youtube.
