Bass cabs are supposed to be non resonant, like a hi fi cab, which sucks for guitar.

I’m not seeing any talk about shipping prices in this thread. Recently pulled my reverb listing for a Peavey Classic 120 power amp with new tubes. Had it listed for $400 for a while. $400 minus shipping (~$80) minus reverb fee ($36) minus the cost of the tubes ($200 6L6 quad plus pre tubes) = a...

Billy Eilish sings? That whisper talk shit sounds like an endless intro. Dab gam kids these days.

Yeah, it varies between brands. Anyone here try SIT strings? Compared to regular D’addarios they are bendier at the same gauge/pitch so vibrato is easier but fast alternate picking suffers a little bit, warmer mids, highs rolled off a bit. They had a unique growl to them, useful on certain...

I’m with OP. Grating, harsh, strident, lacking warmth and balls, mids shifted way too high. Tried ‘em on a few guitars and they were still too bright on my darkest guitars.

I agree with the H75’s having the sizzle. I just went through a ton of different speakers recording and came to the conclusion that the H75 is spectacular as a high end blend speaker, so mic it for highs and blend it with a different speaker that supplies the low mids. Also agree, it’s crazy...

I call it the Tone Squasher200. Stick with your analog EQ; ADDA at that price point is garbage.

Boltzthrower: “But Engls can cut.” Speeddemon: “No, Engls can cut.” Boltzthrower: “I guess we’re just gonna have to agree to agree then.”

Why’s that?

I saw CC a few years ago, was probably the overall best live DM sound I’ve ever heard. They bring their own sound guy so go figure.

I had a Herbert for a hot minute back in the day and while it didn’t jive with our down tuned death metal due to said huge fatness, both the bass player and I agreed it had sick thrash tones for days.

Loves me a good horror movie but boy do I have to suspend my disbelief when the answer to ward off “evil” is embracing a misogynistic pro-slavery child rape cult. But back on track here, SE > Savage. I agree that some amps cut better than others despite EQ settings, but the SE cut as good as...

If I gigged Redback/Creamback I would make sure to mic the Creamback, not the Redback. I have the hardest time finding good spots on the Redback but the Creamback H75 I own is easy to mic.

Gotta “love” when I have a Reverb listing that does not have ‘Make an Offer’ enabled and someone messages me with “Will you take an offer”? State your offer in that first message, dipshit. Like now I’m supposed to go out of my way to coax it out of you? Fuck right off. And oh man you should...

I wish all of my guitars had just a bridge pickup. 100% metal player here. I guess the neck pickup can be cool for fast lead runs but not cool enough to justify taking a chunk of wood out of the body plus paying for a mostly useless feature. I’m perplexed by players that use neck for cleans...

It has more coloration than the Fryette 2/90/2 and is less clinical/hi-fi. There’s no depth control. It has presence and another knob that turned one way sounds more modern/compressed and the other way more vintage/dynamic.

IMO, there’s no better power section than the VHT/Fryette 2/90/2 for the music I play so when ppl say there’s this special mojo with heads vs pre/power amps I can’t relate. Any amp ever, if I run its pre through the 2/90/2 it’s an instant significant upgrade. Regarding OP’s idea to switch amps...

Even when I only mix 2 different types of speakers, I listen to them each individually to see which are the brightest (‘cause speakers vary even when they’re the same make/model) then I put the bright ones on the bottom. Same goes for higher sensitivity, those go one the bottom to even things out.

Anyone ever pulled the trigger? Were they matched well? I'm lookin' at a pair of Gold Lion KT88's for $95. Too good to be true? Russian tubes from China, fake or real?

I had the original E670. Awesome amp, probably my favorite head, I had no problems getting it to cut in a mix. One guitarist band so never ran it up against another amp. E570 + VHT 2/90/2 stomped it though. And can confirm Pball Mk1 was a total turd, possibly my most uderwhelming purchase ever...
