Members Optimus Prime Posted February 2, 2008 Members Share Posted February 2, 2008 One makes me want to watch 300 and one makes me want to spend like $2700. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members D Aussie Posted February 4, 2008 Members Share Posted February 4, 2008 I don't either, and you're wrong. 300 was art. And badass. I think you need to clean out your keyboard. Ass came out as Art on your post. Obviously a mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kontra Posted February 4, 2008 Members Share Posted February 4, 2008 i can see it but i don't think it was an intentional rip off.. and i thought 300 was horrible :/ +1 I think the logo has more to do with Labros being Greek than Ampeg, haven't seen 300 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bassred Posted February 4, 2008 Members Share Posted February 4, 2008 Those similarities are a phenominon called 'a logo' it generally leads a company to use a typeface or FONT and sometimes a picture, in this case a helmet and script-like font and Ampegs 'A' looking thing and a script-like font...... plenty of logos similar to both... The Achillies one is neat, but the greek hero's name was spelled Achilles.... wonder if those guys ever bothered to look it up.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Pyralus Posted February 4, 2008 Members Share Posted February 4, 2008 The fonts are very different. I like the Achilles logo better, myself. Simpler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually he did, the original spelling of the name is protected in Australia from commercial use hence the altered spelling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Scary Bill Posted February 4, 2008 Members Share Posted February 4, 2008 Thats not a good ripoff. Behringer could out do that in their sleep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I say make it loud The thing is, I really don't need an amp at this time... I'm going to pick up a small, loud pro-level combo when I go back to London in September (Markbass/GK/SWR or something), and that Behringer is definately not small, and most certainly not pro-level! I really don't know why I'm tempted. Probably because it's so cheap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Scary Bill Posted February 4, 2008 Members Share Posted February 4, 2008 Damn cheap stuff, it is tempting. I say get it, but I'm not good at telling people not to buy stuff(not my monies). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
