    Bogner XTC3534... What about the Red channel?

    Everyone seems to talk about the blue channel more, on any of the Ecstasy heads but I’ve got to say, I’m loving the red channel of my 3534. I’ve done a quick clip of it here, with the gain at about 9 o’clock. It’s just so thick and chewy!! Please excuse the shoddy playing and general dicking...

    NAD : Bogner XTC3534

    Just got it, so I’ve only spent about 45 minutes but I am pretty much in love! It definitely nails the dark and chewy XTC thing, but with maybe with a little bit of a modern flavour thrown in. This is the red channel with the b2 bright switch engaged, excursion set to T and the gain on about...

    Anyone listened to the new Sylosis album? Gower goodness?

    The Cycle of Suffering. Gave it a go last week and I can’t stop listening to it! It’s got killer riffs all over the thing. It’s also refreshing that they are not in super low tunings. Anyone know if Sylosis are still using Gower modded Marshalls? The tone is not over gained and just really...

    First NGD in 10 years...

    Has anyone put KT66s in an EVH 5150?

    I’ve got an original 50w head, loaded with stock 6L6s. Has anyone experimented with KT66s? From what I’ve read they have a little bit more in the mids than an equivalent 6L6 which sounds pretty attractive. What I don’t know is if a 5150 will run properly on them without mods? Cheers Luke

    Anyone else sometimes have a GTD ( Good Tone Day! )...?

    Does anyone else very occasionally have those days when you fire up your rig, plug in and everything just sounds bang on? I’ve been struggling lately with my EVH 5150 50w 6L6 Head and was considering at least a retube ( it’s 4 years old and still on its original tubes! ) but after today I’m not...

    Dave Friedman & Sammy Boller clinic at work...

    So Dave and Sammy popped in to do a Q&A... Sammy absolutely kills it! What a player! Dave was everything I’d hoped he would be, engaging, honest and funny! What a great night. The guys were kind enough to let us live stream the night, with all guitar tones going from the BE100 into a...

    Firstly let me say that I've been dreaming about kens work for about the last 10 years and just decided it's now or never! Im the biggest explorer fiend in the world ( and being a lefty, that is not an easy thing to be!! ) so this in my mind is the ultimate! Ken has been a pleasure to deal...

    So I met Paul Reed Smith today

    Came in to work today to find Mr Smith was paying us a visit.... What a nice dude! I've got to say that the enthusiasm and belief that man has in both his products and their continuous development, is pretty special! Apparently he's 57, not that you'd ever know, just a ball of energy and...
