Welcome to the #Powerstage 170 Review. Please take the time to like and comment, and you can also subscribe to the YouTube channel if you watch the video demo.
The #SeymourDuncan Powerstage 170 is the smaller sibling of the Powerstage amplifiers with there being a 700, which is rack mounted, and a 200, which can be board mounted and also has a cab sim, 2 speaker outputs and a direct out for use with the sim.
However, the 170 is the one you want if all you want to do is power your modelling device – #Helix, #Kemper, #AxeFX, #QuadCortex etc – or if you use pre-amp pedals such as the Benson range so you can use them with a traditional guitar cab.
Features of the Seymour Duncan Powerstage 170:
170 watts
3 band eq – Bass, Mids, Treble
1 speaker output at 4, 8 or 16 Ohms
5” x 5.24” x 2.84”
Weight 2 lbs
Not really too much to consider here as it really is a basic amp which just does the job it’s designed for beautifully.
This is why I bought it, and why I really like it.
In Use:
I wanted to use it with a Neural DSP Quad Cortex to power my traditional 2x12 Two Rock can when rehearsing and gigging.
