| _______________________________ [Aug 12,2003 5:02pm - jesus ""] why in gods name would you ruin a triple rectifier with a METAL ZONE. you deserve to die. jesus said: effect pedals suck. |
| _______________________________ [Aug 12,2003 5:16pm - Hoser ""] WHOA!!!! Jesus mang......it's this really cool thing called "hot-rodding" your sound so that you don't sound EXACTLY like every other Triple user out there!! You set the level low on the Metal zone and tweak the mids and highs on the MZ, then set the distortion HIGH. What this does is creates a much more SATURATED guitar tone, with less of the "headroom" that makes a Triple Rec so boomy. Trust me dude...the tone is sick. Oh and Rusteds *yawn* to Gibsons???? Are you on crack?? Les PAul (Standards) is by far the greatest playing guitar that my hands have ever met, with a Duncan Custom in the bridge, you can't get a more evil screaming fuckin tone. I have tried just about every guitar that there is, and to this day, this is still the sickest tone and playability that I have gotten, as long as you can get past the weight. But I aint a lightweight, so it dun bother me BIT. eat my fuck, please.. :middlefinger: |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 12,2003 5:28pm - RustedAngel ""] gibson's are good if your in a ROCK band... wait, maybe you are in a rock band...:spineyes: :satancross: |
| _______________________________ [Aug 12,2003 5:36pm - Hoser ""] I'm just fuckin with ya man..... Nah, I ain't in a rock band. We're more in the vein of Disturbed, and theyre the best band ever. Disturbed = the ONLY REAL METAL BAND. |
| _______________________________ [Aug 12,2003 5:37pm - Hoser ""] Wait..... Did I say Disturbed....???? HAhahahahahaha.....lawn clippings are really taking effect. I meant Dying Fetus...... |
| ______________________________ [Aug 12,2003 6:10pm - Blue ""] i myself am quite the anti mesa/gibson/prs person myself. all three are are extremely overrated, not to mention overpriced. that and i really dont like sounding like everyone else on this planet. |
| _______________________________________ [Aug 12,2003 6:13pm - DeOdiumMortis ""] I love my Ampeg guitar head that isn't made anymore. I think Marshalls are overrated too. They're good but there are plenty of other things just as good. |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 12,2003 6:22pm - RustedAngel ""] i wouldn't really say marshall's or mesa's are overrated. in a live setting, nothing can beat them.. except maybe soldano, bogner, or deizel ect. imo, tube amps in general are hard to beat. line 6 is trying but i don't think they will ever truly succeed even with all their cab, tube emulation stuff. |
| _______________________________ [Aug 12,2003 6:28pm - jesus ""] randalls = underrated. just cause they endorse dimebag and the distrbed guy people think they;re only good for numetal shit. but trust me, with the 9band eq built in on my cyclone i can get tones much thicker and heavier then any marshall i have played(including a tsl). and its under a grand. :NEWHORNS: |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 12,2003 6:28pm - RustedAngel ""] dsl = better than tsl. tsl has too much circutry. |
| ______________________________ [Aug 12,2003 6:28pm - Blue ""] im just not a fan of the rectifier buzzy distortion sound. but i think the mark IV is the best head mesa made. i like my line 6 for versatility most of all. im really not that concerned with its ability to copy other amps, i just want something that sounds good all around. i used to have the crate (boo) blue voodoo head. i liked it a lot, but it started to get a wee bit unreliable, which is my reason for kind of staying away from tube heads. randalls are great heads also. i dont have much of a concern over the tube/ss war, just as long as i think it sounds good. and i think my line 6 sounds great. |
| _____________________________________ [Aug 12,2003 6:30pm - RustedAngel ""] i think the next amp i'd purchase would be a dual rec... based only on the fact that decapitateds guitar player uses them. please tell me his guitar tone doesn't fucking kill. :satancross: |
| ______________________________ [Aug 12,2003 6:33pm - Blue ""] i totally agree. decapitateds sound is gnarly. but when i saw them with incantation last summer, vogg was using john(vehemence)'s line 6 head. and it sounded nasty. i am also a big fan of vehemence's guitar sound, which is all line 6, baby. |

| _____________________________________ [Aug 13,2003 9:39am - RustedAngel ""] bring one head, one cab. 2 2x2 = same size is a 4x12. or just get your drummer to use less drums. :satancross: |

| _______________________________ [Aug 13,2003 10:09am - Blue ""] if i were him, id rather use the 2 2x12s. one on each side of the stage fills it out better. thats why i use 2 4x12s. |
| __________________________________________ [Aug 13,2003 10:28am - baneofexistence ""] thats what i do man one on each side of the stage it works ok when the cabs are mic'd but in a hall it's not nearly loud enough |

| __________________________________________ [Aug 13,2003 11:22am - baneofexistence ""] or use the pre amp out on the back of the amp and set up many stacks in a row this is what most bands that have many amps on stage do but a patch bay also can do that i belive RustedAngel said:can play through 2 (or more) amps using a splitter. |
| __________________________________________ [Aug 13,2003 11:28am - baneofexistence ""] if you use a rack distortion unit that has a master volume knob and you want to get a lot of volume from you amp and you don't use the amps natural distortion or front knobs and fx you can plug you distortion unit into the fx loop INPUT i belive you are basicly just using the amps power amp then and you get mad amounts of volume(keep in mind this is how i fried my marshall originally but had used it like this for over a year before it blew up) you cannot do this with a stomp box distortion tho |
| ___________________________________________ [Aug 13,2003 11:28am - WhyamIandasshole ""] Cool. I've tried doing it with an AB box and it just didn't work. The other solution I've seen is taking the effects loop out into the input of the second head like a master/slave setting but I think the 2 heads need to be the same for that to work. |
