New to Rig-Talk - Interested in Metropolous Amps

[dposthum4444]

Hey everyone, I'm new here and actually joined because I saw a piece of gear listed by journeyman73 that I'm very interested in. Since my account is brand new, I can't send a PM yet. If someone could tag him or let him know a serious buyer is looking for him, I'd appreciate it. Thanks so much!

Welcome. You gotta get to 50 posts first before you can message people or use the classifieds.

What guitars do you have? What amps have you had? What's your favorite Van Halen song?

Let's make you some friends.

...and Santana?

or CC Deville?

or long hateful discussions about Eddie's tone on VH 1

Do you like Tim Henson? THAT'S the important question.

Hello!

1) Definitely commission coming your way @CrystalSky.

2) It all started with the Beatles in 4th grade and went into Led Zeppelin, Neil Young, Eagles, Jimi Hendrix, etc. Mainly I'm a classic rock guy, but I love blues, R&B, Motown, some country, etc. I also like more recent stuff that's related to the classic rock of the 60s and 70s. I play mostly a Les Paul but also a strat and have been known to play a double neck on occasion. I have a '59 reissue burst Gibson LP, a '56 CS Fender strat with maple fingerboard in black, a '62 reissue strat in sonic blue with a rosewood board, a '59 CS tele with rosewood board in white, a Gibson Page double neck in cherry red, a Martin D28, and a Taylor 12 string acoustic. Mostly I'm a Marshall amp guy. I like amp OD and using my guitar volume to go from clean to crunch to lead. I currently have a Metropolous Metro-Plex 100 MKI (my desert island amp, but I'm interested in @journeyman73's MKII ), a Tone King Royalist MKIII 112 combo, and an Allen Encore 112 combo. Looking to sell a very nice Dr Z Z40 112 combo if anyone's interested.

3) While I'm somewhat of a minimalist when it comes to pedals, I do like phasers, @griff10672. I have a MXR Script Phase 90 modded by Analogman that I love and will never abandon.

Great to meet you all!

@dposthum4444 definately check out the stuff that @griff10672 makes. Top notch. I am up to 2 of his pedals and they are outstanding. The Soopah Doopah drive is killer.

I've been testing the Super's going into my Ceriatone 2204 lately ...... throw a decent BBD delay in the loop and I'm good ..... just sings ....

Most important thing is for new people to just be honest and tell you what they want....and you can figure it out always

I concur, you're gonna need a Griffin Super Doopah to drive your Marshall style amps for sure.

Yeah but what is your opinion on stacking EQ pedals?

 

[BeZo]

Bam. Phaser guy.

He's welcome in my book.

Stack enough of them and that Marshall might actually start to sound good

I recommend Griffin Analog's RSM Dual Drive for your Marshall / Marshall flavored amps.

remember, sparkly purple enclosures and white knobs sound better.
