$2100!!! Holy shit! ILL TAKE 2 OF THOSE !!!! So Affordable!!!
Came here right as I saw this amp announced. I've been thinking of a Badlander for a while now, this is cheaper, does the IR thing, but has 3 channels, verb, a gate, etc... and it's made here in Canada
Dude your demos are great. You make me want all the amps. I have a Revv G20. I might be upgrading. Keep riffin' 🤘
I need this amp in my life, thanks for the review!
Some of the best tones I've heard on this channel.
love that you tried different cabs and did the comparison too🎉
LOVE this amp!! Great vid as always!
Kyle, when you had the LP with the Jupiters, and backed off the gain....MAN, it all came together! That was a great tone. Well done sir. 🤘😁
This thing just went to the top of my wish list! I've got a bunch of 50 watt heads, but none have midi, and they all have only 2 channels. Having a dedicated crunch channel and midi control would enable me to set this up nicely for gigging. I've been impressed by the demos I've seen of the 120 but I just don't want to lug something that big and heavy around. And the 50 watt heads are already plenty loud enough for the bar stages that I play. Gonna try to pick one of these up for sure! Great demo, thanks!
A REVV G20 or G50 is definitely my Twin Reverb replacement. The voicing is right to my ears. I am doing more experimental metal these days, so the clean/blues tones are not needed so much now. Thanks, Kyle!
Very good video!! Nice palette of sounds!
Good call on the Randall cab.
Love my g20 and match that with a g4 pedal for a wicked cost savings with all the great tones of the 120
I like how you use the song feathers by Coheed and Cambria on your example.
FINALLY A 50/60w VERSION!!!!!!!! Affordable for me finally, the G20 was too quiet for me and I NEED a red and purple
You’re awesome Kyle!! Stay good brotha!! 🤘🔥🎸🇨🇦🇨🇦
I like the low end thud.
Although all I own from Revv is the G4, they always seem to kill it... Nice work, KB!! 🤘

I have the G3 and 4 and the G8, really want the 50W was hoping they would go bigger than lunchbox and cut the 120 in half to 60w but 50w works! I honestly have to sell some things, the mix of the red and purple channel definitely has the best of both worlds, clarity but also heavy G4 saturation
Kyle loves to play Feathers. I do too.
The riffs = 🤘🤘
Sounds really good bro
+1 for the Feathers riff!!
This sounds GREAT! Kemper profiles when 👀
This is rad. I’m curious to see if the ones shipping with EL34s sound much (if at all) different. Also, every time you bust out that Randall cab it’s my favorite cab. I need a Randall XL cab.
Can always run a Rackmount EQ through the Effects Loop. Love my DOD 31-Band EQ, know MOST Guitarists don't/won't use that many Bands, but very nit picky lol. Plus, this particular EQ was actually designed/built back in the late 90s (believe '97 was the exact year,) for Rackmount Guitar Rig Systems, with effects (all the sorts; Midi, Pedal, & Rackmount). Most definitely had to be one of those staples in my rig to keep everything under control lol as well as makes it look like Mission Control 😜
The truss rod cover on the schecter is killing my ocd 😂😂😂😂
Are you a professional musician? I notice you have a ton of amps. I don't play metal but your videos are very informative, your demos are right on. I love your honesty.
Since I have that exact same 120, I cannot justify the 50 to purchase, BUT I love the size, price point and 3 channel layout. AND you still get the gate AND a 6 button footswitch so you can set 6 presets!!!! My next Revv will likely be the D25. Not nearly as belligerent, but fun ;)

You don't, this has one high gain channel with the purple and red mixed. It's a new tone. The others 120W were either both, Red or Purple.
Dat fiddy is fire baby!
Sounds a bit closer to the Red to my ears but I love it, I potentially see this in my future!
sounded really good, seemed easy to dial even with all the knobs too. Ooof though, $2100. Guess that's not bad these days, considering other 20W amps are selling for this much. Unpopular take, a lot of these modern amps sound like they are trying to emulate a modeler more than the other way around, lol. I'm old.
Kyle, I hope you get the opportunity to compare the new Generator 120 Revision B to the current 120. I would love to hear your thoughts on the voicing changes!!!! Even if you can just borrow one, I think it would be a worthy demo!
I've been wanting Revv to release a smaller version of the 120, just have to put the funds together lol.
I was looking at a 5150 III 50w Stealth, Mesa Badlander and the Victory Kraken II... I guess I have to buy this Revv now. Revv has been an amp I've wanted for a long while and I'm stoked they brought out the 50w with so many quality of life features and tonal options. Great review Kyle, much love brother 👍🏻

It may just be my bad luck, but I have the 50-watt stealth and love the tones. However, it is problematic. Channel 3 keeps screwing up. Took it in for a warranty repair. They said it was an EQ capacitor and fixed it. Got it home, same exact problem! So make of that what you will. It could happen with any brand, I'm sure, but that's been my experience.

If you like the tone of the revv just go for it. after buying tons of gear I realised it's better to go for what you like sonically even if it has no particular features or versatility, otherwise you might regret your purchase
I love Engl fireball 25 like its the one for me, in your face sound but its also nice to have a different flavor amp, how do u compare this amp to a Engl?
Hey you should see how that les paul silver burst sounds through it
You need to talk to Fryette amps and have them make you an "Air Fryette amp" to cook your steaks 😉
Would you recommend this or the Mesa Badlander 50? Looking for something that’s versatile and can make some noise but can also be used with headphones. Thoughts?
I saw the mk3 100r is just a bit cheaper. Would you opt for that? Man this amp sounds sick. I'm in the market for another 50 watter to compliment my 5150 IIIs. Ksr orion? So many options in this price range.
Thought the power section was el34

This is a smaller amp but definitely doesn't look as small as a lunchbox amp.
It sounds great, but I wonder how Revv amps are for techs to repair. Are they a nightmare like a Mesa or fairly easy like a Marshall? I'll have to do some research on that question before I ever consider buying one
