mrw55 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 HELP. Is anyone using an Epiphone 339 Ultra with their DT25 combo? On paper this looks as if it will be a good fit, but I wonder. Any help at all will be appreciated. Facts, opinions, whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greghall Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I don't have an Epi anymore, but I think the DT25 is a good fit for most electric guitars, because of the flexibility it provides, i.e. 4 different NFL topologies, class A or A/B, pentode / triode - you are almost certain to find an amp sound in the DT that works well with your guitar / style of music. However, the nanomag pickup is a different issue. The DT25 combo does not really work for acoustic sounds, for me, so I usually use a separate acoustic amp for that. I've seen a youtube clip where someone did get some usable acoustic sounds out of a DT50, using a Variax I think, but the DT series isn't really designed for acoustic. If you are going to be switching between the standard pickups and the nano mag a lot, you might want to consider splitting the signal, using the DT for the standard pickups and running the nano mag signal though something else, i.e. a PA or acoustic amp. Your ears are always going to be the best judge of what works for you, so try one in a shop if you can., Hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
