    Can someone break down the different Splawn models for me?

    I gotta chime in, this is very very true. I have a 2005 Quick rod 3 pre NO gears with Heyboer transformers. It SLAYS, and it destroys the 2009 4 preamp gear version quickrod i used to own WAY back. Difference in sound for 2005 is more usable and not too crazy mid dominant vs 2009 is honky...

    What attenuator(s) are you using for your NMV amps these days?

    I have used a RockCrusher for like 5yrs and I have loved it. I live in a condo so it fits perfect for me. I've posted countless clips online facebook and youtube etc. Never really had anyone EVER even notice but had many many positive feedback comments on the tones.

    Helios 100 Question

    It is very very nice, lots of mids but upper mid dominance. It has that fizzy high that is smooth but searing, but you get a raw sounding amp. Not as polished sounding as the XTC.

    Friedman Butterslax

    Yeah man, that too. My initial post was moreso with regards to channel 2 and 3, but channel 1 is really cool plexi to jcm 800 gain tones, I think this channel is supposed to be a plexi or something not sure exactly. Yes, it takes very well to an old SD 1 and it is super 80's hard rock / thrash...

    Friedman Butterslax

    Yes, that is true, maybe I should clarify what I mean. Treble like 3 O'clock and higher and Mids at 2 O'clock with Presence around 2 O'clock are getting into the higher extreme settings of high end when compared to other amps that I have owned or tried. So I just had to use ears tweaking and...

    Friedman Butterslax

    Has anyone else tried or owned one of these, and can chime in on their findings for tweaking for a more raw/brighter sound? I am a fairly new owner, and prefer raw/brighter sounds vs typical Friedman smooth refined sounds. So when I got this, I figured it was going to sound too dark for my...

    Friedman Butterslax w/ SD-1

    Appreciate that you checked it out, thanks for the kind words too on playing, I do what I like I guess? lol Honestly I don't really listen to Mastodon, but I am largely influenced by bands like Megadeth/Metallica/Soilwork/Inflames. Lead playing probably Marty Friedman/ Paul Gilbert/ and a...

    Friedman Butterslax with BOSS SD-1

    Enjoy, I shared this on the main forum so figured it would be best fit for this too ;)

    Friedman Butterslax w/ SD-1

    Ok, took this beast for a spin and boy does she spit fire when boosted. I find unboosted is refined, typical with Friedman voicings. But I like it a bit more edgy and raw sounding so boosted it and it just hit right once i tweaked the dials on the amp to support the presence from the BOSS SD-1.

    Ready for AI vocals?

    I honestly think A.I might be humanity's downfall, I think stuff like scifi action movies "Terminator" have taught us this valuable lesson LOL It seriously is a thin line between that and reality, if A.I deems humanity incapable of evolving to stop wars amongst itself, then itself is a threat...

    Glenn is BSing again

    I don't really know much about this guy, I have occasionally viewed a couple vids of interest but honestly found him annoying. I'm not adding on the hate train either it is an honest observation , no biases here, but his faces he makes on thumbnails are disingenuous and insincere, which I find...

    NAD: Wizard Modern Classic 2 MkII - (with more clips)

    Congrats dude, it makes me happy to see people get this amp especially after commenting/liking on clips from those of us here that posted because now you see what everyone says "wait until you are in the room with it". Not a mythical thing at all, half the joy of Wizard amps is the feel...

    Wizard W800 in the house

    Thank you for doing that, appreciate it. Sounds like a solid amount of gain for rhythms, all it needs is a boost to take it 'over the edge' for saturation as per taste / compression / lead grease

    100W tube amps that are raw, open and uncompressed?

    To the OP; 100watt amp uncompressed ? In my opinion you are describing a wizard modern classic ALL DAY LONG. I'm not a 'fan boy' but I do own one and they fking KILL for punchy, tight, articulate, open and uncompressed sounds. VERY Dynamic and focused upper-mid tones with harmonic sizzle that...

    When Tom Morello tries to play with real guitarists...

    It is just too easy to come chime in and dunk on Morello, so I will add a bit more constructive approach here... IMAGINE if you will, coming for your lead part AFTER Steve Vai and Nuno.... here comes your chance to add something different that they have not already just blown the audience away...
