This amp has my interest... I'm not keen on the name "SATAN", but it's better than Pink Taco, or Brown Eye..

All B.S. aside, the clips sound good, as does the new Feared, (which I know Ola can make a Crate sound tits), but what's the overall consensus?? It's got a nice, throaty character, and has that pissed off tone I dig. I've suddenly lost interest in finding a Framus Cobra, or Engl Fireball 100, until I get some feedback.. It just sounds more aggressive than both, and more character than the Engl, for sure!
 
The Framus Cobra is kinda a one trick pony. It is in the middle between a 5150 and a Recto. Its not quiet a recto and not quiet a 5150 either. It hits that metalcore sound perfectly if you use a boost. I totally dig it.
It is a hard amp to tweak, that's why some people hate them and say they suck. You have to take your time dialing it in, but when you do it is an awesome unique tone.
It is only gonna get harder to find one as they are no longer being manufactured.

Oh, I boost, I boost! I boost everything. I played the Framus, owned 5150's, and a Single Recto, (loved that amp), and a host of others. They all benefitted from a boost.
