Demos in the Dark // Benson Amps Nathan Jr and Vinny Reverb // Amplifier Shootout

I need all of the things you review >.>

I used to play in a band w Nathan Jr! He’s a real (rad) dude!

If you mentioned the best way to find one of these to purchase, I missed it. There is a list . . .

Now if it was only possible to purchase one. Nice to create a bunch of cool content, increase the hype, make me want one, and then nada. Hens' teeth... No chance, let alone here in Europe. 😂

So glad you did this comparison!

You know man? Today I had a very hard day for different things, but watching this video and knowing that I made the right decision to order my Nathan Jr, which must be under construction, you have no idea how much it made my day. Now I´m on my way home with my family and the first thing I will do is tell my son that we will have an incredible amp to make noise to the neighbors in a beautiful way. Thanks for that!!

Excellent vid. I'll now proceed to watch it 20 more times to remind myself I don't need both. Lol

Excellent video and excellent playing. Thanks for the shootout comparison. I have a Vinny Reverb and love it but the Nathan Junior is a heck of an amp as well. I love the power scaling function on the VR and that’s what sold me on that amp. Reverb is sick as well. Great video!

That Fano!

Do you think benson is worth the hype? Honest question.

Which do you think would be better if connect many pedals,fuzz,overdrive,distortion, together?

Both of those amps are just so damn smooth. I can't choose

Any thoughts on which one might be more similar, sound-wise, to the Monarch and Chimera?

What’s the best way to get in touch with you for your recommendation on one of these amps?

They both sound killer but I feel like the Vinny is the way Ide go. I also love how they both have a sort of Jack white vibe but way way less volume

Awesome job! Love Chris' amps so much.

The Vinny has that champ thing going on! Pretty sick!

👍🏿🤘

How do you even have these. I can’t wait to even try a monarch.

Nathan Jr. for my ears, I too am curious how these take pedals, I use a bunch and have pined over a Benson Vinny for many moons but decided NJ is my choice. Thanks for this rad demo! Great playing too!

So a champ and a pro jnr.

I own a Magnatone and I love the sound that these amps bring. Thank you for using different guitars. That give a sound to match (somewhat) our guitar.

This is likely a stupid question, but are we to assume that you have the guitar tone/volume maxed out at all times?

6v6 and EL84 - Apples and Oranges

There’s NO WAY you could go wrong with any of these two amps. Heavenly tones!

Good vid. I’ve played for 44 years and could not tell the difference.😮

Both sound great with all guitars. Nice video. I wish I was good enough to justify the cost. Maybe someday.

bought that Vinny Reverb based off your review glad i did .

Interestingly, I think the Vinny sounds a bit more like a Fender Champ - which doesn't make a ton of sense, since it's an EL84 amp, while the Nathan Jr uses 6V6 (which is what the Champ uses).
