FRAMESHIFT Mastermind HENNING PAULY Posts Joyo Acoustic Amp Live Test And Review
April 13, 2015, 9 years ago
Frameshift mastermind, producer, guitar teacher and gear talk guru Henning Pauly has checked in with a new Joyo amp update:
"We played a small gig using only two Joyo AC20 acoustic amplifiers to see if they could handle the task. They did! It was fun to carry so little and set up in no time!"Pauly recently issued the following announcement:
"At Musikmesse 2015 we'll show the Mjolnir, Thor's Hammer, but it is a 15 watt tube head for metal, so I thought we combine the two and actually make a hammer out of the amp just because it would be cool and people would stop and look. We'll see if it works. Here's how we built the second one!"Pauly spoke exclusively with BraveWords and let us in on this latest project:
"Here's the deal..We've developed a lunchbox amp - metal - pretty much similar to the Engl Ironball or Mesa Boogie Mini Rectifier, but obviously cheaper and more flexible in some ways. I know metal guitar players, so I convinced the company (Joyo) to not name this thing Thunder but instead name it Mjolnir because it kinda looks like the head of Thor's hammer.
So, I went further. I had them send me two empty ones and actually turned them into hammers for the Musikmesse. We'll have two there, one being wielded by a two meter tall monster named Joachim, who will be dressed as Thor. The other one will be 'hammered' into a 4x12 behind him.
I will be there all four days promoting the products and especially Mjolnir if any remaining fans want to stop by and check out this monster amp. It's a serious metal monster that will probably retail for less than 500 Euros."
