50 miles and $150 is a steal for one now, actually, thanks to Alexi Laiho running the price up on them now. They're not nearly as high gain as Lee Jackson's amps were from what I remember but running into the front end of a Marshall, they sound pretty good. Still, you could always turn it around...
I've had a few. They're ok to use as a boost to the front end of an amp. JCM800s love them from what I remember. But on their own through a poweramp, you're probably going to pretty underwhelmed.
Same here. I ended up compromising by running the mic from my amp into one of the inputs of my Shure IEM system and went from the split there into the board and the other input, I eqed the aux from the mixer with just my vox on it to sound as much like real speakers as I could get it to. Works...
He's having some family issues right now. I wasn't aware of it and sniped at him online because I thought he was avoiding me while I was having issues with some work he had done. He contacted me back so I'm letting him know right now that it wasn't cool on my end. Definitely don't want to see...
It's definitly a cool little preamp! Quiet with that onboard hush, too. Eddie Head from Haji's Kitchen used a Chameleon on their Shrapnel release. He was showing me his settings back then and he had it basically setup pretty close to the settings I had on the ProGAP.
Used one of those V2s for a couple of years into a Marshall 200watt mosfet power amp into a quad of Vox Bulldog Alnicos (15 watt Celestion blues) in the early 90s. I played for a short while with a guy who was using a Mark IV and he bitched about how close it sounded to his mark IV with the way...
THIS. Until you've used one you really don't know what you're missing. I've never heard anything in my life-plugin, hardware, or otherwise, that came anywhere near sounding as beautiful, clean, and amazing as this box. And it wasn't a subtle difference. It's not going to get you great amp tones...
Not knocking GC because there are some guys locally that really know their stuff but when they don't...oh man.
Guy behind the counter at GC Arlington today: Can i help you?
Me: yeah I need to pickup a 12AX7
The guy walks from behind the counter and starts looking around the showroom on the...
I thought it was amazing for modern sounds. Classic sounds? An old Marshall will kill it for that, or at least the ones I've played over the last year would. But they were all Camerons. :D
