Title: DC-30 Story Post by: frankandstephen on October 01, 2010, 02:51:16 AM Hey all!
Looks like most of us are followers of Nik's great amps but I wanted to post this story for the non-believers out there: My son recently played his DC-30 alongside a Fender Twin Reverb, VHT Pitbull and a Fender Hot Rod Deville at an end-of-summer-camp performance and the sound engineer who's been in the business for over 20 years and travels around the country working with professional studios and groups was simply blown away by the sound of his Ceriatone. Also, the professional musician in charge of the camp couldn't get over how great this amp sounded - and he's recorded at Abbey Road Studios and played for years so he knows his gear. They actually had to turn down the amp because it was so clear that it was "cutting through the mix and made everything else sound so muddy in comparison." (their words, not mine) Stephen had people coming up to him after the show asking about his "mysterious" red amp (we had the cab and head built in red tolex), wanting to know who makes it (we don't have the Ceriatone nameplate on the amp just to leave people wondering).... Nik - you and your team are the best! ;D Frank (the one who finances) and Stephen (the son who plays) Title: Re: DC-30 Story Post by: Ramsay on October 12, 2010, 09:59:16 AM Great Story!
Here's one from Dubai... Received my DC30 1x12 combo with Celestion Gold in her. Called a pro muso friend of mine to come check it out. He's got an AC15, a boogie MK4 and a Blues Deluxe. He played both his Jame tyler and his Tom Anderson through my DC30. Official reaction?..... Boogie and Blues Deluxe are now for sale, and he's already contacted Nik! I've had Laney Lionhearts, Blackhearts, HotRod Devilles, Marshalls.... but nothing has ever revealed the third dimension of sound like this DC30 has. Sold! Now I need to convince the wife that I NEED another Ceriatone.... |
