Members colejustesen Posted February 27, 2008 Members Share Posted February 27, 2008 I was just on Randall's website, and I totally forgot they were collaborating with Kirk Hammett for a signature amp. I figured I would show those this amp, I think it looks bad ass. As far as sound goes, I would love to have a setup look like that!

Members -Juggernaut- Posted February 27, 2008 Members Share Posted February 27, 2008 somewhere in the price range of $9000 for the head. The regular RM100KH will be the same just in a black tolex, and normal price. KICK ASS AMPS!!!see sig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members JonathanD Posted February 27, 2008 Members Share Posted February 27, 2008 Has Kirk ever consistently played Randall? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members -Juggernaut- Posted February 27, 2008 Members Share Posted February 27, 2008 why? it's a NEW endorsement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members bluehuricane Posted February 27, 2008 Members Share Posted February 27, 2008 the guitar world review was horrendous. sounded like some {censored}ty hi gain distortion pedal with {censored}ty eq'ing. hopefully the real amp sounds better.

Members colejustesen Posted February 27, 2008 Author Members Share Posted February 27, 2008 I hear the Randall Mod stuff is pretty kick ass. I have yet to play any because no one around me has them in stock! I have been wanting to make a custom head for my Vendetta, maybe I will look into something like this! Flamed maple with a transparent black to match the chrome! Cole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members -Juggernaut- Posted February 27, 2008 Members Share Posted February 27, 2008 Well that could be the story as well, but I doubt seriously that Hammett was really itching to get his own sig amp, or Mesa would've kissed his ass years ago and given him one....

Members -Juggernaut- Posted February 27, 2008 Members Share Posted February 27, 2008 Hell if it's like the other MTS amps, it'll be great. same thing just different cosmetics...See sig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What am I missing here isn't this just the regular 100w head they've had for the last few years with 3 modules and different cosmetics? Flame maple adds 7000 to the price?

Members 13bats Posted February 27, 2008 Members Share Posted February 27, 2008 Randall Has done a 180 IMO .from a year or two ago. They have really stepped up to the plate .The signature mods have improved a lot .as has the build quality .Even though many wont dig the these guys have years of playing through great rigs .George Lynch, Kirk Hammett, Bill Leverty(Firehouse)...BUT the biggest thing in Randall court is the customer service level is AMAZING .Where you couldnt get Anyone to reply a few years ago .I would be shocked if R/d Rich or steve didnt reply to you within hours by email .there is a real community and everyone helps out new users with questions and module reviews .again I can not say enough about how Randall has changed my feeling about customer service and have certainly brought in the right people who gennuinely care about the product .its reputation and the users experience .

That is stupid for sure...they should just make it a custom option and charge a reasonable price for it. What modules do you use Juggernaut?

Members -Juggernaut- Posted February 27, 2008 Members Share Posted February 27, 2008 Right now, I have:1086XTCBlackfaceTweedGrailI want the KH modules, Mr. Scary, and the Ultra.I'm waiting on my cab to get here today, after it does I'll post some pics.

Members SLfreak Posted February 27, 2008 Members Share Posted February 27, 2008 The MTS series amps are totally sweet, so I have hope for this thing to be alright. I think the flamed maple is more of a collector item than a hardcore touring rig (unless you are Kirk Hammett). I would love to have the JTM45, Plexi, and SL+ modules in an EL34-based MTS head. I'm thinking that would cover most all my tones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members -Juggernaut- Posted February 27, 2008 Members Share Posted February 27, 2008 The SL+ is a kickass module, thats on my "want" list as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 4nkam Posted February 27, 2008 Members Share Posted February 27, 2008 Because I hate it when people ditch their fav amps to go to a company who will give them a sig modelFrom what he's said in interviews, it's more like him just taking advantage of the MTS design, being able to plop in any tone he wants so he can carry a head/combo somewhere for practice or jamming with friends, etc. He said he's still gonna use his boogies and all that too I have the KH1 and KH2 on the way but the KH3 is still backordered Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
