New SVT Heritage CL

[juggernaut1]

Just used at home, I havent gigged with it yet, but.........
Man, what beautiful tone. Makes my other amps sound harsh in comparison.
Just incredible. I am hooked!
This one is a keeper.

Congrats! The Heritage CL certainly made me a believer.

Thanks Tom. There is a really sweet 3-D quality that it has.
Now for a cab that will handle it for gigging.......

First - Congratulations!!

Second - I couldn't agree with you more! I purchased one a while back to compliment my Heritage 8X10 and I haven't looked back....absolute KILLER combination!!


Again - Congratulations!!

What's been the verdict on these as they compare to a standard CL and a VR?

[Tim1]

See the bass player review where they make a passing comparison to the standard CL and VR. IIRC they found the tone stack a little easier to work with but thought the VR was a tad more open. Not much in it though. Tombowlus certainly rates the heritage.

anyone who buys one of these in the central fl area, i'll let you bring it over to my house for a couple weeks if you need a place to hide it from the wife

I made an A/B test with an Heritage CL and a Vietnam VR, with the same cab (Heritage 8X10) and same bass (my Fender P) and I preferred the SVT-VR.
I found the sound more clear on the VR and the bass a lot more controlled (for my taste, the CL had too much bass, I had to cut them a lot). The VR, IMO had the right sound to cut through the mix without EQing, the CL was not as clear and somewhat more modern sounding, with a lot of bass, and the midrange not as forward.
