Brunetti XL 60 R-EVO Head

Three channels and midi control head. Gain, vol, bass, mid and something like a mid contour pots for each channel
Master vol and Deep controls.
Five preamp and two power amp tubes (mine had EL34 type)
Not so heavy to carry around, modern and clean look.
One rack space on the bottom (you're smart, man!)

I own too many guitars (Fenders, Ibanez, Manne, Charvel..) tipically H-S-S equipped and hums are mostly Seymour Duncan. All of them help me to feel confrtable playin' different kind of music but sometime I get quite confused..
So let me tee you:
Clean - Wow! Great dinamic and presence in almost every frequencies! And what a volume! You can run the gain over 6 and it still remains clean.
Boost - Here sad words man. Still great dinamic but what a muddy channel. The bass frequence blows you away even if you close completely the control, very poor sound definition and no more than middy gain type. That's not what i was whising for. You feel the need to use a distortion pedal or something
Lead - Quite compressed, not such a super high gain channel but enough to lead you rock solos. Lot of mid-hi frequencies but it lacks bottom
Almost no noise in every condition, it's 60W but what a loud voice! You're not going to wish more power or you'll crash your ears.
I give a six because I was really disappointed about the crunch channel (I replaced all the preamp tubes but not big differencies)

Bought second hand, I had it one and a half year long: no problems

They care a lot, very good customer service. Well done Mr Brunetti

I sold it out and I'm not going to buy it back.
If you play modern rock, the crunch channel must rule, that's my point.
If you buy a three channel all valves amp then you have to use a pedal overdrive, something goes wrong. Maybe it was me because I just bought an amp than doesn't belong to my wish...??

Build in the end of 2004 i think. 3 indipendet channel (clean, boost and xlead each with it's own master, bass, middle, edge, master and bright/focus), master volume and depth control (to make the overall sound of the amp more or less hard/heavy). Channel-switch throught it's own pedalswitch or via midi or on the amp frontpanel (all 3 ran toghether!).
it takes a little to understand how to play with the eq of each channel to find your sound, but after you can dial almost everything!
like the idea of the 19' rack unite space (don't have a rack-effect/tuner but think it's a usefull thing).
use it with a brunetti XL-Cab 4x12 with custum made jensen speakers.
maybe the only little contra is the effect loop, it seams it doesn't like so much FX-pedals (tried once my DeluxeMemoryMan inside it), but btw i use all my FX before the amp. but from what i know with multi-rack-FX you don't have problems.

I'm using a lefty Fender Strato with seymour duncan and di marzio pickup. I play metal/alternative with some blues/jazzy stuff somethimes. This head covers a lot of different musical stiles, actually you can go from pop to metal really!!! i love the sound so much!!! the xlead is really insane highgain paradise!!!! for me is the best amp down on earth.
i never tried a mesa, but this brunetti kills 'em all ^_^.
the dynamic is fabulous, and also with high-gain sound you can still feel the real sound of your guitar.

Very well made/built.

go on their website then in the forum and if you have a question, Marco Brunetti himself will reaply to you!!! Raally i couldn't immagine something better for a custumer support!!

this is my first serious Tube amp (before i had a little transistor fender amp). i play since 8-9 years and i'm very happy with. once you understand how to use the eq and so on you can really play every music style that one could imagine!
really if you search an amp that sound huge and don't want the mesa/boogie or the marshall that everyone as go and buy this on, after you tryed it!!!

One word: Fantastic

I used a Peavey Wolfgang USA, without effects or noisgates straight into the XL Revo head.

I have had this beauty for 9 months now and used it for more then 10 gigs and a recording plus I reherse with it weekly. It never let me down. Very well built. I don't have a back up couse I wont need it..

I asked them some shit about the tubes and they responded the same day. Very kind people.

The best Amp around.

My AMP was made in 2005. 3 channels midi or footswitchable. It's got an effect loop too. The great thing is that all channels have seperate tone/gain/level controls so you can really have 3 different sounds and volume levels.
It has midiswitching and a paralle loop which is great for those who use midi effects. I would have liked to have a remote switchable loop so I could by-pass the loop. Good thing about the loop is that it is tube driven, so no solid state sound sucking system here!

Channel 1 you can take from real Fender clean to Marshall break-up. Channel 2 from bluessy breakup to, to take no prisoner high gain. This channel has a special Feature called Focus, which works as a sort of midshift or contour pot. This makes it very easy do dial any musical flavor. The beauty of this amp is that even if you're at high gain it maintains a vey high defintion even when playinh full chords! Channel 3 takes the gain even further but I like to keep gain down a bit here.I use this channel for soloing only. But most important the sound is incomparable, better then Mesa or Marshall if you ask me. Sorry to offend anyone, these brands make great amps to but ....
Check www.nomansland.info there will be some sound available there soon.

It's hand made and looks solid in anyway. I don't have use a back-up for this one allthough I own a Marshall TSL60 too. It did not let me down so far.

I asked some info about the tubes and some technical stuff I was intrested in. They responded kindly and within one day.

I've been playing for almost 15 years now and I've tried a lot of amps including Marshall TSL's, Mesa Rectifier and Stiletto, Koch Powertone etc. I like this one best because of it's superior definition and versatile/easy sounddialing (of course I like the Mesa's and Marshall too, but just like this one better). I use a Peavey Wolfgang USA with high output EVH Humbuckers.

I still wish it had switchable harf bypassing loop but actually the sound is so good I don't reaaly miss the effects. I could of course start using a midi-effect unit but I've been there before I like the simple stompboxes better. Still I give it a ten.
