Anyone still play a PWE Event Horizon? Thoughts

  • Thread starter Thread starter suhrimmetal

To my ears and fingers Ted's amps and guitars are for sure on the same level with any of the other brands mentioned, great form and function, killer cleans, master, loop and gain and boost. Stelar build quality and they look cool as hell. Same for his guitars. For sure worth checking out. I would find a dealer who has an approval period and give them a test drive. Just my 2 cents.
 
Sorry my thread has turned into yet another junior high he said, she said call out. Not my intention... and my thanks to those who actually gave honest feedback on my initial question.

Unfortunate this forum... and moreso, just social media gives the blind, the dumb, the inept freedom and no filter to run their mouths and express their mis-guided and meant to insult opinions. And it seems to be the same party(s)... so it's not the indian.. just a few misshaped arrows.

With that being said, Ive decided to buy an overpriced Bugera..... at least I know Im getting F'D.

Be kind, stay inspired. Cheers
 
I have both SLO for 10 years and PWE EH3 for about 4 years, now I played more EH3 than SLO, below are the advantages I thought of this amp:
1. Great master, great for practice at room level, but can also be ridiculous loud.
2. Awesome clean, can be sparkle clean or fatter sound like Marshall, fast attack finger response.
3. Each ch has individual 4 types frequency switch, for OD can sound really solid, but also can make it has slightly shimmy effect on the top end.
4. I have to said the 2CH can easily compete with SLO's lead ch, but more fun and more articulate sounding than SLO. You will experience similar vide while playing both amp together, they both react direct, in your face with really organic feel, you can hear every stings ringing clearly when strummimg.
5. Very juicy 3ch, bit darker than 2ch but great for soloing, sustaining singing tone.

If you cant get the good sound out of EH3, probably because at the rear panel there is a secret "Decelerator" which you should look at into it more detail. When you turn it all the way down, it act like a Marshall type plexi sort of sounds, narrow, tight, quick response of how you play. But once you slowly turn it way up, the amp opens. It gets bit lazy, like sitting back, you will feel the amp starting to fill up with energy, but at the same time you might lose the immediate react of the finger-string feel. The tone will be fully exploded, fatter low end, standing out mid frequency, you will need some time to find the best spot for your playing condition.

Great tone with awesome feel, really fun to pay, super underrated amp brand.

Thanks for the time and opinions mate. Appreciate it. I dig the SLO..... just not the volume it really needs to shine. Nice to hear the master volume is good on the PWE.
 
This PWE sounds like a really really versatile amp, with many different cool tones. Love to try one.

Sorry my mistake, EH3 don't have MASTER volume, each ch has its own volume. ^^

Yeap, my SLO at least need vol at 2 to sound OK, they both different beast, rock beast!!!

great tones in them for sure. great deal in the classifieds right now on one.

Thanks... yes, saw that one.

Don't really need an amp but you know how we are...lol. The EH3 and Bogner Goldfinger have my interest currently.... and both within my limited budget. Could also snag a 3rd Power SR.... tho not as versatile being just 1 channel.... tho a very nice 1 channel. :yes:

Goldfinger is way better than the EH. I haven't played the Citizen Gain, but it sounds phenomenal in the demos.

Thanks for the opinion.

I've owned the Goldfinger and played the EH2 & EH3 a couple of times, so I'm pretty familiar with them all.


Hi Mike,

When you were known as ubermetaldood you said it sounded amazing but were concerned that I was going out of business. Now my amps don't sound so good and you're still concerned about PWE going out of business. Thanks for your concern but with all due respect, mind your own business and stop spreading rumours.

First of all dumbass, don't act like you know me. Second, I didn't spread any rumor about you nor did I say anything bad about your amps. Actually, I said they were good. I asked the question of whether your company is still making amps so big deal. I don't know what concern you're talking about, buy you're full of shit saying it. If you can't take people's opinions, then don't put a product out on the market. Are you going to freak out every time someone says your amps are good? You should rethink the way you treat people, especially in a forum that welcomes different opinions.

Not the first time that you asked whether we were in business so don't act like you're not trying to plant some seeds of doubt. You tried to extort an amp out of me , I still have the PM and your threatening emails. Your behaviour on this forum is unacceptable and one of the reasons why fewer and fewer people post here. Finally Michael, I really don't care if you like my amps or not.

Dude you're paranoid and delusional. I've never contacted you EVER. You can cut the act because I don't know you and you don't know me. If you don't care who likes your amps or not then don't jump in and start making wild accusations. There is clearly something wrong with your interaction here man. You need to put yourself in check.

Enough with the insults dude. It gets really old.

Take your own advice then.

Yeah sure internet tough guy he must be paranoid and delusional, You posted nearly the exact same bash of PWE exactly a year ago in one of your own thread, you fruit :lol: :LOL: loop
Here is your quote dumbass from the thread, go ahead and edit your bitchy temper tantrums BITCH!
And first the thread dumbass!
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=183024

3rd Power makes some good stuff, but haven't heard their Marshall take yet. Didn't PWE go out of business or something? I checked out the EH2 & EH3 but neither one was particularly impressive. Which model are you referring to?[/quote]
 
Sorry to derail the thread again suhrimetal but this epic troll needs called out again, just check out some of savageriffer's daily tantrums all over this forum lol!
 
I've owned a buttload of boutique amps, including a PWE EH and a Bogner Shiva 20th. I think they compare very well. Both have very good cleans that go from sparkly to fatter, as an earlier poster said. The dirty channel is Marshally, going from breakup to JCM800 to some great VH dirty tones and beyond.

I'm not calling the EH a knockoff or anything like that. It's just a comparison between two great amps. I'd buy each back today if I was in the market for a new one.

Agree with the comment about the EH being a lot more flexible than any Friedman I've played. Not slagging on Friedman amps - they are amazing and have their own, very cool thing going on.

Thanks... I have owned my fair share of great amps as well... Friedmans, 3rd Power, Gower, Bogners, Diezels, Landry, etc, etc.... Any of those amps can deliver the goods. Just looking for 'maybe' something I haven't tried yet. Cheers

Ha! Busted out! Another shining example of SavageVictim/Ubermetaldouche reinforcing his status as Rigtalk's biggest asshole! When the fuck is this guy gonna get banned? His petty insults and petulant tantrums have long run their course. Hey, SV-UMD, instead of annually attempting to start rumors that PWE has gone out of business, why don't you get your facts straight? Either your an "illiterate dumbass" as you so love to call people, or you just enjoy stirring up shit. Either way, you fucking suck. How you still show your face around here is beyond me.... I'd like to hear more about this PWE amp extortion attempt. :checkthisout:
 
I owned an EH3 for a while, and I really enjoyed it. It has some of the most well thought out (and unique) features, and they all had a big impact on the tone.
It was also a very well built and cool looking amp!
I only sold it because head to head with my XTC 20th, I preferred the Bogner.
Otherwise, its a really nice amp...especially for what they go for on the used market.

Apply your own standards to yourself. Let's see, you called me an "asshole" and accused me of shit I didn't even say in this thread. I never said any of that shit you accuse me of. Do you think the way you respond is somehow supposed to be more diplomatic than me? Bullshit. You're just as vile as the rest of them, but you're a hypocrite because you fling insults and make wild accusations and then try to call me out. Forget truth right? You don't give a shit about what is actually said. You're just content enough to run with it anyway.

Here are some facts for you that you clearly missed. First of all, I only gave my honest opinion. I said nothing critical. I said the amps were good. I ASKED if they were still in business. I didn't try to start any rumors. If asking a question is somehow starting rumors, then go and blame everyone who asks questions with some of your paranoid bullshit. YOU are the one who should be banned.

I don't fuck with people on this forum. I'm just fine until someone screws around. If I'm wrong, then I'm man enough to admit it and will apologize directly to whoever. Up until the point when someone came along and said some bullshit about me, there wasn't a problem. Someone made something out of what I said that wasn't there to begin with.

If you're going to call someone out then at least be accurate and apply the same standards to yourself. I don't start shit around here, and the proof is in the postings. I got little rude fuckers like you, Blackbird, Scotosan, and a few others who can't just leave well enough alone. You always have to say some unnecessary bullshit. In reality, YOU little trolls are the ones stirring things up. I left this thread alone, then YOU had to come along to try and castigate me unnecessarily. You could have just let it all die down, but YOU are the one stirring up shit.

You know what man, I've fucking had it with this bullshit. It's unfortunate that you little hypocritical trolls have taken over. You fuck things up for everyone else who tries to contribute something, so keep it all to yourself. I'm out.

I would love to try an EH3. The DR video is so crazy cool.

 
I’ve delt with Ted on a personal level multiple times and he’s a stand up guy with awesome customer service. I’d do business with him again in a heart beat. :thumbsup:
