NAMM 2009: Steve Vai's Legacy II launch (video)

Just spotted this on Blabbermouth.net... Steve Vai's press conference launching the Legacy II amp for Carvin at NAMM. In the video, Steve talks about the design concept behind the amp, including the new added channel, which is a boost for the clean channel. Unfortunately he doesn't actually play through the amp in the video.



The Legacy II will be released at the end of February.

Good find! A zillion NAMM '09 vids already uploaded and I'm certain 10 zillion still to come!

Yeah, I'm agonising over whether I should post a bunch of NAMM videos (which could be information overload) or if I should be very, very selective, for my own sanity!

Hmm. So it sounds like the master volume is really a power attenuator.

Peter Hodgson said...

Yeah. I think that's a great idea, and they should be making a very big deal of it in the marketing of the amp because a lot of people love the sound of the original Legacy but are put off by the extreme volume. When I had one to review for Mixdown magazine, it was at gigging volume on 2!
