New AMP. Way bettah than yours!

That's cool. I can't say I listen to much metal.

I'm thinking of people like your favorite Marty Music, Rabea, in the blues, Matthew Scott, Chris Buck, stuff like that. Some of them are good players but as you know running a band is more than just guitar chops alone and not much I've seen of their actual music is anything I would listen to. Plus I want to punch guys still playing Little Wing and that probably includes all of them.

I have been considering starting a AC/DC cover band, but sing all of the lyrics like the guy from the B52's. Before anyone judges, think about the ease but also...the quality.

Every single one of those guys write insufferably bad music

A couple of them write ok music then ruin it with horrible vocals. And all of them play Little Wing.

That's one of the really tragic parts of this new "influencer era" is that the new guitar heroes have no talent to go with their 10 thousand hours. It's just the 10 thousand hours of practice.

Yeah, this. No serious stage time, hitting jams, and scuffling for work. Just shoot and edit some more gear vids and then play Little Wing again.

I think you should do Los Lonely Boys covers but with the B-52 voice.

Sure would bring an entirely new meaning to "Heaven".

this thing will be pain in the ass when fixing

Especially with no warranty after the relatively few units which will be bought from the manufacturer have been flipped and shipped for a loss on reverb 6 times like amplifier russian roulette.

Saw this on my Facebook wall. To my ears it sounds like Ola playing Ola's riffs on a new piece of gear Ola's demoing. Which means he always sound the same whatever he plugs in. Which is not bad as he is a solid player but I never understood the hype behind the videos he posts.

His style is good for comparisons against other amps he puts on his channel because his playing is consistent and he usually uses that same Mesa OS 4x12 of his, which means you can pull up any two amp videos he's done and compare them and get a pretty decent idea about the differences between them.

I hate to say it too, but yeah it’s fugly. Like, enough that my shallow ass would be turned off playing it.

I just like heads . The shell the look . 100 watters . That’s my lane . I don’t even like rsckmount . But to each their own

 

[BABMusic]

Too ugly

Funny, because I was looking at that thinking WTF is that thing?

Because of that consistency, I get value out of olas videos simply because of the comparative differences between the amps

For sure. I’ve opened a few of his amp showcase vids in multiple tabs more than once and listened back and forth between them, pretty confident that even between videos, most of the important variables have been accounted for.

I still have one of these at my place (the blue-face 6L6 / EL34 one) and it's honestly an insane amp.

IMHO Ola's vid didn't quite do it for me since I know how the thing sounds. Michael Nielsen did a better job demoing the GBG120 imho; nothing against Ola - love what the man does.

The front panel's intimidating probably because the number of buttons/surface.
In reality, it's very simple:

- each channel has its own preamp knobs & buttons (CH1 through to CH4)

- the last "block" of buttons at the right are just poweramp knobs & switches and FX loop on/off, series/parallel and level

It might be a bit on the spicy side but it's built like a tank, big iron, big tubes & extremely low noise floor.

CH2 is Marshall through and through, CH3 is Soldano SLO and CH4 is EVH-like.
CH1 is good too but I'm not that much of a clean connoisseur to put my finger on what exactly it's going for.

Well. This is one of the amps I got to try at one point. Have heard some great things about it
Also I think it looks cool!

Completely straight faced, that would be awesome and I would pay a high price of admission.

 

[Sick Michael]

Cleans are good, Metal crunch is great. Maybe theres other tones in there...? Maybe Doug rappoport can demo it.

 

[67mike]

Looks like a back-alley shit at a pride parade.

 

[glpg80]

Crunch and lead sound hollow sonically to me. The cleans are the only thing going for it. Hard pass
