Members Steveanders86 Posted October 12, 2007 Author Members Share Posted October 12, 2007 Everything....? That's a lot of gear. I'm bringing my AC30, Mark III, 18W TMB (if there are requests, I can bring the Marwatt as well - it's got the Hiwatt preamp in it), along with my SG Classic. That'll about fill up my little VW Golf with gear. bring what you can! the more the merrier! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Weathered Posted October 15, 2007 Members Share Posted October 15, 2007 Bump:Mini amp reviews:Splawn Quickrod - My favorite amp of the fest. Definitely not as bright as I was expecting from the reviews, totally useful tone, and the thing sounded GREAT. Definitely Marshall-inspired tone, but with more everything. Definite Framus Cobra - Very cool heavy amp. It seemed to have some high end harshness that I couldn't seem to get rid of, but it wasn't bad, and definitely had lots of punch. The Cobra and a VHT FB412 gets a helluva metal tone.Peavey 5150II - I preferred this to the Cobra for a heavy tone. It really sounded mean, and had plenty of teh br0o0talz on tap. We dialed in the green channel to sound like a good modded Marshall - easily my favorite tone from a 5150II.Laney VC30 - Really does capture the "Vox" tone. Almightycrunch and I agreed that it didn't seem to have the Vox chime, but it was definitely in the ballpark tone-wise.Mesa Blackface Dual Rec - Only heard it for a little bit through a Recto cab, and it sounded better than any of the 3 channels I've heard. I still prefer Mark series amps over the Rectos, but these are a good example of what early Recs can do.My amps:Vox AC30CC - I forgot how this thing sounded at volume. My band practices at reasonable volumes (read:pretty quiet) so I don't get to wind it up as much as I did Saturday. This thing + Almightycrunch's hollow Strat was a helluva rock/blues tone. Conclusion: I need a Strat.I'll let Chris and Almightycrunch post about their thoughts, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members almightycrunch Posted October 15, 2007 Members Share Posted October 15, 2007 Dont know what else I'd have to add to that, I'd have to agree on all counts. Heres a couple shots, Weathered thinking, "Oh man do I need one of these strats!!!"
