Tell me about the Uberschall

[Shiny_Surface]

I've had 2 Uberschall's, a Revision 2 and a Revision Blue.

The Revision 1's and 2's are the biggest sounding and the darkest IMO. In my particular situation with my drummer, I had issues getting it to sit in the mix properly (and I was the only guitarist!).

But I know and have heard others who didn't have issues in a band mix with the older models, so it really depends on the particular band situation at hand IMO...

I had an easier time getting the Revision Blue in the mix, as it's a bit brighter and not as big sounding as the older models. So there's a tradeoff there...

But even the Revision Blue is considered dark compared to alot of non-Bogner amps, so it's all relative...

I owned a first generation Uberschall and it sounded a lot different than an XTC. It sounded bigger, fatter, and had lot of thump. I thought it was great for what it did-it's only drawbacks were a bad clean channel and a lack of clarity on the top end (sort of fuzzy) on the 2nd channel. I think it compliments an XTC very well. As far as master volume, IMO, it had one of the best that I've ever heard on any amp.

I've own and/or played all the revisions of ubers made. I initially always dig the massive, pissed sounding, aggressive, throaty tone. But after awhile what starts to bug me is how open it sounds/feels. What would be like the uber but not be so 'open'? I'm thinking a Dorado. I've been wanting a Dorado for along time for that reason and am curious if anyone thinks it would be kinda uberish but not as open.

throw an EQ (I use a g-major and the EQ in that) in the loop to squash it a bit.

ive owned 3 ubers over the years and all of them were cool, i played a bunch of shows with my 1st uber in a 2 guitar band and it sounded awsome, i never had any probs being heard or cutting, the other guy used a dsl 100.

hey Zao, have you played ur uber and engls in a band mix?

what have been your experiences with the 2 for live use?

does one cut more than the other in your experiences

i played my ubers,5153,quickrod in a band and the uber did just fine, i only tried my powerball once in a band and i had to make some adjustments but i got it to cut but against certain amps i can see where a pb might have probs, if you was using a pb in a 1 guitar band it would be just fine.
