I'm looking forward to trying out the 5150 iii they've got one at one of the local music stores. Friend of mine tried it and said the clean channel wasn't that great. But I find that hard to believe with fender.

i found the clean channel quite nice

very sparkly sounding.

much better than on the peavey 5150s

I'll have to go check it out. Looking to pick up a new amp next year and this one is definitely on the short list. :)

Since the Fender Metalhead I guess. 8) It's supposed to be a good amp, if a little on the loud side at 500 watts. :twisted:

They make loads of nice rock amps.

Supersonic, prosonic, evil twin, super 60, whatever Hendrix used on Voodoo Chile studio version etc

Someone on JCF already has 2 EVH heads!! 1 in black and 1 in white!!

anyway, isn't the UK price of the 5150 III about £1299? I thought I saw it on GAK.

The only clips I can find on youtube are these, which may not be the best for demonstrating what the amp can do
