Had a sig-x, didn't like it...


Just curious, what did you not like about the Sig:X?

Didn't have whatever it is that the ultralead has. Just didn't dig it. The pittbull 50/ST was better for me than the sig-x.
 
Just wanted to update my thoughts.

After having the Ultra-Lead for a monthy or so, swapping a couple of tubes and throwing an EQ in the loop.......

YOU NEED BOTH.....

Get the 100CL and the Ultra-Lead, these amps are so incredibly bad ass and are different enough to warranting the need for all of them.
 
guys with a deliverance and Ultra lead... which is a "better" amp for metal with extras... ?

What would the responses be if the question was......

guys with a deliverance and Ultra lead... which is a "better" amp for metal

(without the extras)

I have never played a D and I would really like to. The D120 has been on my radar for a while and the prices are great.

D120 with a loop Vs. Ultra-Lead for metal and NO extras.
Go........

hard to say, I ended up selling my UL after 3 1/2 years with it and kept the D60...D sounds Thicker, a bit less open which I prefer, more organic and boosted can be quite tight, sounds loud enough for live use also....however the UL is a superb amp and I'll probably end up buying another one later just to have it in my stable.

They are both amazing amps and either one can do super heavy tones without breaking a sweat. IMHO the Ultra Lead with the KT88's is the definition of brutal tone however. The Deliverance can get close but it has a bit more of a vintage tonality to it even though it can get uber agressive as well. To me the Deliverance is more organic and warmer sounding than the UL and is what I would pick for what I do but if I were still just doing metal and had the choice I would get an UL for sure. Also it depends on whether or not you need multiple channels and an effects loop, I do.

Having said that I own a Sig X and wouldn't trade it for either of those amps :) To me it can cover any tone I can ever think of and do it extremely well. Mr. Fryette to me is as good as it gets in amp design.
 
Just got a d120 with factory loop. Great amp. Throw an eq in the loop and you kinda got a poor mans ultralead.

No. Not really.

I like the ul better for sure. Will never be without one. But that's the great thing about this brand. They are all great amps. Pick any one of them. I doubt you will be dissapointed.

D120 or CL100 w/eq for me....I've tried them all.

:rock:

If you had to choose between the D120 and 100Cl????

I am actually trying to (somewhat trying to) sell my UL so I can buy a D120.

Next on my list but damn I had that CL100 sounding meaner than a mofo.
