HX Stomp + PowerStage 170 = The Ultimate Gig Rig?

Sponsored by Seymour Duncan In this video, we’re diving deep into the Seymour Duncan PowerStage 170 — a compact pedalboard-sized power amp built for gigging guitarists who want to ditch the heavy rig without sacrificing tone. I’ll walk you through my real-world experience using it with the HX Stomp, run it through clean, mid-gain, and high-gain presets, and even build a preset from scratch to see how it holds up in a live rehearsal scenario. Whether you’re a working player, a fly-date warrior, or a pedalboard purist, this might be the amp you didn’t know you needed. 🎸 Gear Used (affiliate): Seymour Duncan Powerstage 170: https://seymour-duncan.sjv.io/raBd0D Line 6 HX Stomp: https://amzn.to/40gJ1OT Schecter Nick Johnston Traditional: Epiphone Lee Malia Explorer Orange 1x12 Cab (16 Ohm) ⏱️ Chapters 00:00 Intro 01:23 My rig evolution & why I use modelers 03:40 PowerStage 170 Specs & Overview 06:25 Sound Demo w/ Existing Presets 08:55 Building a Preset from Scratch 12:18 Real-World Use (Rehearsal Footage) 13:47 Final Thoughts 💬 Got questions about the PowerStage 170?
