Could've been the amp, man. Through my Randall, it was kind of underwhelming at first, but it really shines through my Krank.

Blackened Black Winter? I'm curious about those. I love my regular Black Winters. Have you tried those? Any chance you can compare them?

Can they be run straight into a poweramp now like the Diezel pedals?

That looks killer! How do you like the KM Fishmen?

Can the Bogner stuff be used as a preamp? Do they have outputs for that? I thought they were more like distortion boxes.

The Planet Waves auto-trim tuners have also been nice in my experience. Schallers too. The only ones I'm not particularly fond of are Sperzels. Not that they're bad, but they're not cheap, and while they're stable, their gear ratio isn't as great as others that cost as much or less. They're not...

I like Gotoh 510's, personally. I can live with Grovers too. Never been a fan of Sperzels.

They could be Chinese copies of those Russian 6P3S's. https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-6L6GC-Pair ... SwhqhZ84PL

I must admit the Black Winter was kind of an acquired taste for me. When I first tried it, I was underwhelmed. But the more I play it, the more I like it. I feel that it being so upper-mid focused, it's sorta like a more mix-ready Duncan Distortion. I love it now.

Thanks for the replies, dudes! The Painkiller looks interesting. How about the Aftermath? Is it any good for what I want?

Thanks for the replies, dudes! The Painkiller looks interesting. 15.something K and triple ceramic magnets make it seem pretty close to the BW and Gibson 500T, which I also dig. To you guys that say you don't like BK's, what is it that you don't like about them?

... which Bare Knuckles would I like? I like those kinda grindy, upper-mid-focused, tight, ceramic monsters. I went through a phase where I was like "yeah, my amps have enough gain", and I really liked the Whole Lotta Humbucker, but once I threw a Black Winter into one of my guitars, I realized...

That clip sounds killer! Have you guys tried it through more efficient speakers? Maybe those couple of extra dB's that could push it into band volumes. Neo Creambacks sound great, not to say they're bad or anything, but they're pretty inefficient, aren't they? Also, is it cathode biased? What...

Thanks for the reply. I'm going to give this one last bump in case anyone else wants to comment. :)

Anyone? :(

Has anyone tried both? How do they compare? I'm a sucker for the H-75 Creamback, and I've liked the G12EVH in the past (same as the Heritage G12M). Will I like the G12H(75)? Would it be worth it? It's a bit pricey for a ceramic speaker, but does it sound better/more complex than the Creamback...

hC68tsiIcKs They compare the Redback to other Celestions (including the H-75 and the K-100) towards the 16:00 mark of this video. :)

AFAIK, only the Sovtek 6L6's are called WXT+'s. It should be those. If they're called WXT (not +), then they're 5881WXT's, not 6L6's.

That Korean factory (WMI) puts out some killer stuff. These days, I reach for my PRS SE over my Ibanez Prestige. Granted they are very different guitars, but the PRS SE feels REALLY solid for being such an affordable guitar.

Daaaaaaayumn, that clip of the modded Jet City sounds killer!
