There's no way the majority of these fuckers are 30-40.
The official RT stance is anything that came into existence after 1987 sucks.
(Exclusions include amps made of unobtainium)
My buddy periodically sends me texts of "holy shit xxx is selling for $$$$ now!?!?!" With a reverb listing of something way overpriced. Every time I have to explain that listing something at a certain price doesn't mean they're selling for that price.
I feel like I need to send him a link to...
My buddy is getting his Saturday and he ordered from Sweetwater. It was definitely after you too because I saw you post about ordering one and then told him about it.
My guess is there was a screw up with yours.
Guys...It's got the same front panel as the Mark V and it's several inches smaller. Are we really bitching about silk screening?
The JP-2C had to have the FX loop redone after the first 100 or so units. Was that Gibson's fault too?
It's a new product. If they can fit a little + on there and...
Axe FX if you're comfortable with computers. Really easy to do stuff in the editor and you don't have to adjust the advanced settings. The only advanced setting I sometimes tweak is the high treble.
I didn't like the Kemper really. Lots of stuff sounded the same because it was recorded through...
That's a good point. I would think an earlier version because it gives more variety, and if that amp setup is real then it gives a logical flow. Clean, Crunch, Lead.
But...no clue haha
Mark IIB makes sense to me because it's essentially like the Mark I mode on the V. A looser, smoother lead sound that you wouldn't use for rhythm. I hear you on the IIC+ mode. They also have an entire amp based on the IIC+ now though, so we'll see.
I love that channel layout though. Clean...
"Ch. 1 = Clean, Fat, or Crunch
Ch. 2 = Fat, Crunch, or Mark VII™
Ch. 3 = Mark IIB™, Mark IIC+™, or Mark IV™"
Midi included. Mark VII mode is modern high gain

That's what @stephen sawall said a while back. That the VI was a prototype that went to a handful of artists. I couldn't tell if he was joking or not lol. He did "leak" the Cali Tweed and Fillmore amps a while before they came out, saying that Mesa's next amps were going to be simple non-metal...
I got a KSR Juno when I was looking for exactly what you're describing. I'm very much a Mesa guy though, so I'm not overly critical on the Marshall/80's metal tones. I think it does them well, but a little more scooped and meaner sounding. You can always hear the metal-ness in it if that makes...
IMO people looking into Revv are chasing a modern metal tone. I think the 5153 Stealth does that with more character and for a lot less money, and the same for the old ENGL Savage if you can find one at a good price.
The new Savage is expensive, and you don't really get any value from the extra...
Revv sounds like ENGL making a 5153. Sounds fine, but it's boring and synthetic sounding/feeling. Not what you want from an amp that expensive IMO. For most people interested in Revv I would probably suggest a 5153 or an original Savage.
I've done it.
Walked into my GC one night before closing and bought an early-mid 90's ESP Custom Mirage Deluxe.
$200.
I was getting that thing out of the store ASAP before anyone realized that it wasn't a cheap LTD.
Sold all of the ones I've owned. They always sound killer when I first plug into them, and 6 months later I just can't do it anymore.
Definitely like them, but always find them lacking something compared to certain other amps.
