Diezel, Rhodes, Lickliter, etc

Get you one of these. The Rhodes Artemis will blow you away. As someone else said, if you can't find your modern tone in a Rhodes, take up another hobby. Mine has the Crunch/Lead1/Lead2 channels. With the mode/voice/fat/bright switches on each channel and the switchable loop and second master, we figured there was 164 available combinations of settings. Got it last week and gigged with it 3 days later. It pretty much makes everything else obsolete.

Fantastic to hear you say that. Put my deposit down on a Gemini a few weeks back.

What's the wait time?

Would it be faster to wait for Steve to sell me his?

Oh yeah, I call dibs.

Why be an ass?

And, you laugh. If you had put down a deposit several months back, you would have had yours by now.

Gemini vs Herbert.

Gemini has a beautiful clean channel. And the gain channel is super amazing. The gain structure is tight,thick,crisp and super clean gain. When I say super clean gain I mean it's very pure. Doesn't have muddiness or shrill tone. It's not fizzy or processed sounding. This amp is flat out brutal. Versile yeah, but I really don't care about that. I look for the ultimate metal tone. Nothing more nor less. I hate fighting an amp like a splawn. I like all the strings defined as u hit a big chord without it being a jumbled up pile of shit when it rings out.

The only reason I took a chance on the Gemini is many ppl have said it rivals the Herbert. And in al the $ pissed away on mega amps nothing ever touched the Herbert in my eyes.
However yes the Gemini def rivals Herbert. It's a diff sound more upper Mids more open less compressed sound. With that said, Herbert is still a king. It has a very unique powerful Diezel sound to it. So Herbert king n Gemini is Queen. Neither less nor more than the other.

Nice. The Gemeni was what I was originally after. But, I ended up with the Arty. One extra channel of serious whoop-ass! I have 2 - 212 cabs being covered and waiting on some Scumbacks to install to complete the kit.

Kyle is a fkn insane master at this art man! This amp brings it ! N I only took a stab at it cuz ppl were saying it'll give Herbert a run for its $$$, LOL hell yeah it does. Next will be a Rhodes cab, as soon as I sell my EVH half stack !

Yes he is. What he has done with the amp technology and packed in these chassis is phenomenal. He's not your average clone guy and Marshall circuit modification wannabe. Everything is original and well planned, and executed.

If you have any, try some Gold Lion KT77's in the amp.

For me, the ultimate amp for versatility is the Rhodes stuff. Just so sweet and organic and responsive.

Me too. Feels right. It's not an amp you have to fight or coax into sounding acceptable. Kyle's got it going on.

 

[cujo]

Just what we don't need more n more modded Marshall knock offs that all sound the same

Don't think outside the box now

Lol...

Fluff your pm sealed the deal to but Gemini tnx a million !

 

[GearHaven]

Simply get one of Kyle's amps. I can't think of a more versatile amp and, besides, they sounds amazing!
