If you're gonna drop $1k+ on an amp it would be worth the gas, IMO. I liked the JSX when I played through it, the Laney is like , and my current fav band uses a Fireball(Scar Symmetry). Yeah, I think DB said there was one like an hour or 2 away. Id take the roadtrip, and spend all day, to get a good feel playing everything you could find, to compare.

Members -=MYK=- Posted April 2, 2006 Members Share Posted April 2, 2006 So I was listening to some Rob Zombie stuff and Riggs' tone is really cool.It's kinda weird. I have the amp that he used to record that stuff with the Zombie bands, but unless I boost it, it doesn't get that heavy.Maybe it's broken or something.When I bought it I remember it having a {censored}load of gain, but now it doesn't.

Members -=MYK=- Posted April 2, 2006 Members Share Posted April 2, 2006 About ENGL amps. I'd stick with the higher mid sounding ones like the Blackmore, and the Savage series. My friend had a Powerball and it had a harder time cutting through than the recto that he owned before that. The Fireball will have even less wattage to help it get loud enough.

The Fireball will have even less wattage to help it get loud enough. I liked it by itself... but when I played with other people I had a little trouble to get it to cut through. I mean one of the mid modes utterly sucked, and then the other one was a little better, meh..maybe we were just bad at micing the things Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also the SD full shred humbucker.The Marshall has a cool feature, a contour knob! Let's you sweep the mids for more low mids and a meaner sound like I'm heaing on the Rob Zombie tracks.A Randall could probably do the tone just fine as well. I wouldn't mind having one of the newer Randalls(the SS ones). The ones that I've tried have sounded really good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, with Rob Zombie, it was a different player and rig. Yeah, I remember him in ads with the G100, but was rumered to have a Diezel I wouldnt mind an old Marshall 8100, what that G100 is based on. It had the Contour also. Only problem is, it can get failry thin when scooped too much.Ive never heard too much about the Full Shred pickup. I do want to try a custom though....

Members -=MYK=- Posted April 3, 2006 Members Share Posted April 3, 2006 His tone sounds really close to my SS head with my SD-1, but the SD-1 takes out a little too much bottom end. I haven't heard the VH4 or I could tell if maybe it was something different. I haven't heard too much about the Full Shred either. I guess it's time to hit the SD forums and do some reading. In other newts, I've got this Rammstein song here, and it's got some killer tonez. Folks say Tech21 PSA-1 and Dual recto, but it sounds too tight to be a recto, and too early in their career to be one of them queer Engls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the song off of the Matrix soundtracks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
