    POLL & Discussion - Your Age, Social-media Presence and So On

    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)

    Thanks JHS! Bad Monkey trending UP $$

    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...

    Rumors of a Mark 6/7 coming on Tuesday?

    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.

    Mark VII is not plussed

    ..or it was a choice because it couldn't fit without being obscured by the knob..

    Mark VII is not plussed

    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...

    If you were going to purchase a Kemper, AXEFX, or Synergy gear…

    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...

    Mesa Boogie - Current Market Buzz?

    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

    Mesa Boogie - Current Market Buzz?

    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...

    Mesa Boogie - Current Market Buzz?

    "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 Source: not me, someone who claims to have one in stock.

    Mesa Boogie - Current Market Buzz?

    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...

    Please recommend a new high gain amp for me

    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...

    Revv amps?

    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 amps?

    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 saw the craziest thing at Guitar Center today…

    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.

    VHT/Fryette amps - best high gain tones....ever?

    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.
