This is a very quick and dirty clip of my M100. I'm plugged straight in with my Les Paul Standard and there is a TC G-Major 2 in the loop for delays. Pardon the sloppy playing..lol! This amp takes boosts like a champ, but I didn't feel like pulling my pedalboard out and hooking it up. Maybe after my gig tomorrow I'll set it all up and try to get a better quality clip going.


 
Sounds great! Nice darkish Marshally tone! Nice SK riffing too. Thanks for putting it up!
 
One of the better Rivera clips I've heard. Doesn't sound likE the treble turned all the way up like most Rivera clips I've heard. Good stuff man! What pickups are in the Paul?
 
Thanks! I have a 59n in the neck and a PRS Tremonti in the bridge. I should mention that the volume on the amp is very low. These amps really shine when you have the master volume up and cooking. Unfortunately, my iPad doesn't really like those kinda volume levels. Any I hear you on most clips running the treble up way too high.
 
Isn't that tremonti pickup bad ass?! One of my favorite hot pickups!
 
Sounds great! Nice darker, modern sound. I'd love to hear it with a Custom or JB in the bridge. You running it through the 53 cab?

Modern tones courtesy of 1992...lol! Yeah, that is the EVH cab.
 
First off....sweet Opeth shirt. That through creambacks? Sounds kinda similar to your EVH CLIPS....and how is the evh doing? Still transformerless?

Thanks! The speakers are the stock Celestion EVH models. It's funny, I pretty much dial in every amp to sound the same. I'm still waiting on Fender to ship the replacement power transformer. If this weren't a warranty issue I would have called Mercury Magnets already. I could be waiting another four weeks before it actually ships. I find this kinda CS to be a bit ridiculous. However, I'm happy to play the Rivera in the meantime.

I believe that you can still order them directly from Rivera, but it's no longer a production amp. This one has a build date on the chassis of 8/92.
 
doesn't really matter the amp you have killer tone!

I couldn't get a M100 to sound anywhere near that...

Thanks man!
 
Man I love the M100 tone. Ever since Saigon Kick it's been a benchmark high gain tone for me. However, if you don't gig (which I don't anymore), Riveras are just too effin loud for home. Had a K-Tre for a short time. Had to save my hearing and sell it.
Great clip and playing man!
 
Damn! Rivera always intrigued me but I never got a chance to try one for myself (they're pretty rare here in Sweden) but that sounds awesome. Keep it up! :)
 
Played my first gig with it Friday. This amp comes to life in the stage. It sounded massive while still cutting thought the mix with authority. I got more compliments on my tone than I have in years.
