...and my Bogner. I was thinking I have too much and feel very fortunate to have a few of the best amps on the planet.
I have been all over the map lately trying to find my next amp but a big part of this has been me not being able to afford a 20th XTC which I have played a few times and...
OK, not exactly but these new Bogner pedals are so good, they have killed some of my amp GAS. Run the Blue or Red through the clean of my Shiva, and it is like having an XTC channel on my 20th Shiva. The Shiva clean loves pedals. My Sonic Edge J&J also reminds me of a real amp. There are some...
I finally got to hear the Powerball II but didn't get to play it. Now, I have to get out an play it! I am researching for my next amp buy, this summer and never thought of the Engl PB II till now. Holy cow, it sounds frickin good!
Every channel from clean to crunch and high gain lead all sound...
I will be getting one more amp to add to the collection this summer so I have time to research. I have a 20th Bogner Shiva, PWE Event Horizon and BFG modded Dual Rectifier.
I have it narrowed down to Mark V, Electra Dyne, Royal Atlantic, Egnater Tour Master, Splawn Quick Rod or Street Rod. I...
Hey guys,I have been playing a lot of amps lately. I got the go ahead toget another amp this coming summer, but it will be my last amp before we buy our next house, LOL! So, right now I have a PWE Event Horizon, 20th Bogner Shiva with EL34s and fully modified Mesa Dual Rectifier (BFG). Cabs are...
Hey all,
I am picking up a used Egnater Mod 50. Right now, I have a PWE Event Horizon, 20th Bogner Shiva and one of my all time favorites, a BFG modified Mesa Dual Rectifier. I decidied to add an Egnater Mod 50 back into the stable. Wish me luck, LOL!
I love that amp and miss the fun of...
I was close to selling my PWE or Shiva, but just can't do it to either! Love them both, not sure what I was thinking. They sound somewhat similar to my ears but get them side by side and you really hear the differences, making it justified to have both!
Things I have fallen back in love with...
I loaded two Celestion Chinese Greenbacks and two Celestion Lynchbacks into my Splawn straight front 412 and it is hands down the best sounding 412 that I have ever heard.
My Shiva.with my LP Standard through this are insane. Huge sounding and tight, with an amazing warmth and 3-D quality...
My guitar tech is really talking up Suhr guitars from the feel, balance to the tone. He also knows I won't spend $2000 for a bolt on guitar! So, he says Suhr makes a series of USA made guitars that are around $1000. Where are these? I can't find any! The Suhr site no longer exists, so where do...
Over the weekend I tried a DGT and thought it was pretty sweet. I only have one PRS right now, my 1994 CE-22 which sounds so much better than my McCarty and Custom22, that I sold those. I had yet to find a PRS as nice sounding as my CE-22 till I tried this DGT.
However, the neck feels different...
It seems like amp prices have gotten out of control! You can't get an American made high end, well built, great sounding high gain EL-34 or 6L6 amps new for less than $1800 and you can't get one used for less than $1200 if you are lucky.
Just wanted to let you guys know I got my BFG fully modified 2003 three channel Mesa Dual Rectifier. It is unbelievable! Sounds huge, thick, smooth, throaty, fat, chunky, articulate, punchy. man, this is the best Dual Rectifier I have ever played. This is now a permanent member of my amp...
Been using a lot of 412 cabs at rehearsal and have been loving it! Some times I bring my Stone Age or Bogner 212, but there is something about a 412, that just sounds more full, alive and bigger, punchier and more fun to play than my 212 cabs. My cab collections is Bogner 212, Stone Age 212, THD...
Guys, I played through a Jackson 412 cab at rehearsal. It is sort of a silver cab if I remember correctly. I have no idea how old it is, but I am guessing 80's or 90's. It sounded nice.
Anyone familiar with Jackson cabs and what speakers they had used in their 412?
Thanks!
I recently borrowed a friend's Fryette Sig:X and was completely blown away. So smooth, so refined, so responsive, amazing at bedroom volume (whisper), amazing at rehearsal, so responsive, so versatile, can be beautiful sounding for jazz or brutal for angry metal and everything in between. I was...
Hey guys....I have fallen in love with WCR pickups. I have a WCR 2003 Goodwood in my LP but I rarely use a neck pickup so I don't want to waste money on expensive neck pickups. Instead, I want to find a used neck bucker in the 8-8.5k range. Closest I can find is Rio Grande Texas or Buffalo...
I have tried over 20 pickups in my 2003 LP and ended back with Burstbucker Pros. I even used a 2002 Goodwood and Crossroads and I remember liking it but ended up back with the BB Pros. In the end, I find pickups don't make a huge difference, mist of the tone comes from the guitar, amp and...
I love my 20th Shiva with EL34s and PWE Event Horizon tons and was close to buying a modded Mesa Dual Rectifier or a Splawn Quickrod. However, knowing what a Bogner freak I am, I decided that maybe I should save for my dream amp, a 20th Ecstacy. Thoughts and comments? Does this make sense with...
