They definitely need to put some money
into their marketing department, because this amp is really killer. I don't even need to use pedals with it.
Back in the tube amp game with a bang, which fourth amp?

Perhaps, or it's just one of them things where once you know, you know, you know? And then that starts a chain reaction with other cats who don't know....till they know.They definitely need to put some money
Yup. I own a few Rivera’s. The TBRs are tone hammers for the stuff I do.

This is my favorite Splawn clip. The other guitarist in Kyle Bull's band.

How would you say the nitro behaves with v30s?
I hear mixed things online about speaker sensitivity with splawn.
I just got off the phone with Splawn, as I was running down some questions. I was told that it’s the QR that would be fighting v30s a bit, but the nitro wouldn’t, as it’s voiced with mids more shifted toward the lows
Wheeeee
It’s relatively cheap tho so I’m still gonna try to go for another. Eyeing splawn and wizard atm

Yes he boosts it with an OD that I can’t recall, and runs a Gup Tech Que Bec in the loop for added depth.
I have my buddy’s Jube here now, and I’m boosting it with a Fortin TS9, with a QB in the loop and it’s brutal. Killer thrash tone that hits like a jackhammer. Holt all day.

My last drummer had a TBR 1, and I eventually found a TBR 1SL. Killer amps.
I’ll prob let the 2SL go as I have too much shit. Not enough space. Idk

The 2SL is 120w x2? I think the 1SL I had was 60w X2, stereo
Yes. It can be used a pure power as well. Really nice. But I would never play anything requiring that. So it’s more just fun to have I guess

Yep - that is the general consensus although there are some QR owners that like V30s. Scott is good people. Amps are very affordable. KSE used Quick Rods for a bit live.

i think thats a Fuchs Viper below. never hear about those. im not sure they used the same rig for two tours in a row back then.
My current favorite amp is my Revv Generator Mk III with EL34s. I've owned and played some amps you have mentioned. I like Bogner and only have a 20th Shiva right now from Bogner.
I played a Splawn Nitro and I thought it was much nicer than the Bogner XTC and Friedman BE-50 Dlx I played. Nitro!
Nitro thru Redbacks and V30s is unreal.
Beats the Friedmans and Bogners I've played. More punch, better feel and more aggression. I still love Bogner but I would take the Splawn over the Friedman. Friefmnas to me are over priced, plus the Splawn feels and sounds better to me.
I find the Nitro fatter and chewier than the QR. Personal preference.
Had a Mark V and didn't like it.

Are you still loving your Splawn or Splawns? Not sure how many you have.Yep - that is the general consensus although there are some QR owners that like V30s. Scott is good people. Amps are very affordable. KSE used Quick Rods for a bit live.
I've been wanting a Nitro for quite some time. It's more my thing than the Quick rod although both are amazing.
I don't know how much they have changed in recent years with circuit design, etc....so I'm never sure which year's to look at for pre-owned. I don't think I'll be able to swing a new one.
I have a 2002 Dual Rec that I'll never part with. It's modified and sounds incredible.
It's got a charm all it's one and just sounds huge and complex. I love that I can sculpt it so well with a boost or OD. Love that about those old DRs.
Not a big fan of the Mark series amps however

I just have the one Quick Rod. I run it at half power, treble on 0, loop volume box. Never played a Nitro but would like to. I believe it was 2014 or so when the 'fully loaded' Quick Rods came out. If I was starting over, I'd look for one of those. I never use the clean channel on mine. I use my Mesa Rectoverb for that - really nice cleans. Real clean to edge of break up cleans. I also just got a Dual Rectifier. It is amazing too.Are you still loving your Splawn or Splawns? Not sure how many you have.
