    TC Electronics Jims 800 clip

    It does sound a bit fuzzy to me and rounded in the tone.. interesting to hear you guys not like the Friedman. On paper and in the clips I have heard, it sounds promising. What didn't you guys like about it? Was it also too " polished" sounding like a lot of the amps?

    TONEX ONE- We talking about this yet?

    Every single Youtuber dropped this at 00:01 today.. actually something I'd be interested in. I don't need tons of options and they packed just enough into this one. Two selectable amps with tone controls and Comp/Gate/Reverb. No brainer buy really. Get a capture of your favourite amps and load...

    The Swedes just bring it when it comes to fantastic playing. Canada produces great hockey players, Sweden produces great hockey players AND virtuoso/ tasteful guitar players with chops for days. But hey, we gave the world Bieber...and RUSH.

    2205/2210 clones?

    " if" he boosted his JMP's... I feel like he might have been an everything wide open with that sh-5 driving the tone in early UFO. But the wah actually robs a bit of gain so i dont know how he squeazed so much out of those. He's Def a " tone is in the hands" player.

    King Diamond - Andy LaRocque

    For example, Voodoo album was ok, definitely better than Graveyard BUT it has some really great aggressive playing on it and I think this might be because Andy had done that spot with DEATH. I find the tone suffered after The Eye and became more scooped but I guess that was the sign of the...

    King Diamond - Andy LaRocque

    That's my point.. Graveyard is more or less a weak album. I just listened to it today actually. BUT, the leads are all killer. I think the strongest albums are Abigail, Them, Conspiracy, and the Eye. These you could consider " prime" years. But along the way there are so many gems album to...

    King Diamond - Andy LaRocque

    That's the thing, think back to 80's and 90's.., did you see Andy on many Guitar Player magazine covers? Was he in the adds between the pages? Was he endorsing this or that gear? Not really, he was just ripping and shredding his ass off. He's so f-cking good and CONSISTENT live it's wild. Total...

    King Diamond - Andy LaRocque

    Ok, let's do this again.. I know JerEvil is huge on the King and I have brought up a few KD threads in the past but this past week I have been revisiting the old albums and some of the latest live stuff and I am starting to think, could Andy be the most UNDERRATED guitar hero out there? The dude...

    So what’s the new synergy module gonna be??

    I don't disagree at all.. i interpret them as building some of the sound into the preamp to account for an anemic poweramp but end of the day, the limit is the power amp 100%. That's always been the knock. I had a listen to it..i suppose it does that fizzy tight recto thing but I still think the...

    So what’s the new synergy module gonna be??

    Apparently they have come across some way of incorporating the power amp sound/ feel into the module. Not sure what that really means but i guess we will find out

    Jake E Lee's tone was ahead of it's time on The Ultimate Sin

    I can push it to Seventh Son. I think that album is badass. Moonchild, Evil that Men do, Infinite dreams. Some fantastic tunes on that one. I also think Somewhere in Time is no slouch either. Things start sliding at No Prayer.. sounds like they recorded it in a basement. (farmhouse by the looks...

    So what’s the new synergy module gonna be??

    I think this is one thing that Randall did better... the power amp on my lynch box/rm100 sounds big. Density knob brings the chunk.

    So what’s the new synergy module gonna be??

    That Grail was a sleeper... I never did end up getting one but wish i had. Friedman 's modules for Lynch were among the best if not THE best. Brahma, judge, scary, grail... awesome stuff. Id love it if they released something like the grail with some options.
