Just picked one up on ebay in the UK. I love my zvex pedals and am experimenting with low watt valve amps so it would've been rude not to give it a try. Itching for it to turn up.

Looking forward to your thoughts about it

Speaking of tiny amps, have you guys seen Wangs' 5w amp? They do a one-watter, too.Chip Korea wrote: ↑Wed Sep 12, 2018 2:09 pmJust picked one up on ebay in the UK.

Yes, I am tempted.

Any review that has Marc Ribot references in it is a great a review!

ZVex Nanohead. Played it a bit with a Panama 12" attentuated cab. Japanese Mustang. I did have my reservations that the clean might be underwhelming, and the dirty not overly to my taste.
Good - Can sound very good clean without attenuation at very low volumes. Also sounds very good cranked and attenuated at very low volumes.
Bad - clean isn't as good as a handwired clone of a 1954ish Fender Champ I recently picked up. That isn't much of an insult!
Conclusion (interim) - I need to spend more time with it cranked and not attenuated, but the little I have it sounds even better than dead quiet, surprise surprise. Overall a really nice sounding all-round amp, with lots of useable sounds but very easy to use as well. Only disappointing if you compare it to some bigger amps / all-time classic amps.

A surprising way to get an almost Jazzy clean sound from the lil guy with the volume cranked all the way up-
Volume- dimed
Skinny Man
Very Cloudy
No bright switch
Use a single coil guitar or turn down your humbuckers.
Surprised the hell out of me!

Great stuff guys!
Yes, going from a Nano to a large amp with large transformers always shows a difference, but for what it is designed for, it does what it says on the tin!
