#DEAN MARKLY K75 MANUAL MANUAL#
I emailed a REVERB seller of the same DMC80 amp who advertised a manual with sale but too late: it and the amp were sold days before, no copy made.Īll I have found on the internet thus far are 4 pages of schematics.ĭean Markley itself has no obvious contact info to address them directly and seem to no longer have an interest in amps at all, just strings and cords. I may already have what I think I do, just not unlocked. I can afford a Roland Hot Blues Cube and then some but I'd like to learn more about this DMC80. Yes, this thing can be a beast with LOUD ROAR but is workable for my needs. I don't know where to begin to explore its capabilities in mimicking the mythical qualities of tube/digital Branded amps. My curiosity about the "advanced use" of the DMC80s modeling features has me in a dead end in search of a DMC80 USER MANUAL. I have a small collection of guitars: my nearly pristine 2000 Epiphone Dot 335 Deluxe VS is next for the TUSQing from nut to tailpiece, in this case a Bigsby B7 over a ResoMax bridge and a Kluson Revolution locking tuner set, fresh HH gold covers.
#DEAN MARKLY K75 MANUAL PRO#
I am an amateur luthier with the requisite skill set, patience and tools, job came out pro grade after A LOT of homework. I just used the K20 yesterday for set-up intonation with a tuner pedal on a complete restoration/mod of my 88 MIJ Fender Strat from locking tuners through TUSQ nut, fret levelling, complete neck and fretboard refinish, new Wilkinson bridge with TUSQ saddles, a cleaning of all harness pots behind new Texas Hots single coils. I've been using them both at low volume, sometimes with headphones connected to a variety of pedals just to learn firsthand which effects I might actually use/need during loop pedal creations. I know Dean Markley doesn't make amps as their main product, but this is a decent foray into that world.I have a Dean Markley DMC80 on a stand in my music room along with a Dean Markley K20 practice amp, both bought on a whim from some nameless pawn shop in Saint Augustine, FL. It's a pretty cheap amp and a good price for a practice amp. However, I get good use out of it when I'm just rehearsing on my own, working on scales and ideas. I miss the great breakup of a good amp when I'm playing this amp, so I'd have to say I'm a little disappointed. I'd say that the midrange is a little too loud on this amp if I had to critique the frequency curve at all. So as long as you keep this lower, it'll be great for blues and country, as well as lighter rock stuff. The drive channel has a good sound at the same volume levels, great at low volumes but horrible louder. It doesn't have good distortion like most good tube amps do once they start to break up. When you crank it, though, it starts to break up and it's a little too much distortion to deal with, honestly. That's why this is such a good rehearsal amp. The clean tones have a lot of depth and character to them, and they really sing. This amp sounds pretty great at low volumes. The manual is pretty barebones, there's not a whole lot going on that you couldn't figure out yourself. The footswitch makes using it much easier. It is, however, more than capable of being a practice amp, and being a good rehearsal amp for smaller, quieter bands. I would say that it's probably not going to cut it for gigs, as it's not quite loud enough. Getting a good sound out of this guy is not the easiest thing in the world, but it's manageable. Channel switching and reverb are both capable of being operated by footswitch. It has a three-band EQ for both channels, as well as reverb. This amp has 50 watts of power delivered to it, and has two channels (clean and drive). Strengths: Good clear sound, a body double so convenient return and a double entry to play and sing along! first experience, so it deserves to be reviewed, but not for the Blues, not the masses send it, so for the rock either. I remember I went to a pretty good song!įirst amp.

The sound is really too christallin blues and even a footswitch drivers in this hard enough ear. It was my first amp to play the Blues at the harmonic and really is not for that! The channel is very saturated and rocky but too grunch slammingĬlear channel is quite faithful to the acoustic The sound is not as powerful as advertised and the settings are sensitive Amplification transistor body double (1 X HP 12 2) (the photo does not show the second box connected via jack)
