howabout a custom “choose your own 8 mode” triaxis from the encyclopedia of boogie amps?I'm still digging my v2 tx4 triaxis into strategy 500 or vht 2150.Its just a lot of fun.For amp heads,I'm firmly rooted in the iic+,iii, and colis.my iv a and b took a direction in tone I wasn't completely sold on.I would agree, having played the v,jp,and vii,I feel like the vii should've been after the iiis.Some of you commented on your fav new" dream" boogie- mine would be a vii coli,with 2 eqs..oh,and a new updated triaxis.
2 spacer with dual GEQs clean/dirt partnering with fryette to design the layout for serviceability and tap his recent foray into hybrid world.
one thing i did try when i had the triaxis was run it with a rocktron ProQ and a BBE switched in and out with a patchmate for more fine tuning on my hypercleans and lead II red “80s metal” sounds
in 2001 i went to my friends studio to track with my triaxis rack for another friends project and he shot this behind the scenes vid of me warming up while the engineer was dialing in levels. sounds like i started with lead II yellow (IIC+) then switched to lead II (III) red…
next,
experiment with my blue stripe when people were reporting squealing with the new IIC+ RI:
“Even with Volume, Treble, Lead Drive, Presence on 10 and graphic eq 6600 cranked (way brighter than I'd ever run it so watch your ears!) old faithful passed the test and isn't trying to squeal/oscillate.
Left the GEQ on with the clean channel--sounded cool!”
vid i made borrowing my friend’s mark III green stripe combo with warehouse blackhawk HP. this last evolution of the III stripes had a fatness which made cleans nice and leads kinda fusiony, which in hindsight was a tip of the hat towards the direction of the IV
