Randall XTC - modded by Jeff Hilligan

[aeroic]

Here's the Randall XTC modified by Jeff Hilligan.

I used my Suhr Pro Modern M1, with the XTC in the M4, powered by the Randall RT2/50 w/ 6550s run into my Grendel Dead Room iso cab w/ a G12K85 and mic'ed by 2 SM57s. I am using a BB preamp to boost the XTC just a bit. The Gain on the BB is at 9 oclock, the treble at 10 oclock, the bass at 2 oclock, and the volume at 11 oclock.

The drums are just a groove w/ EZDrummer I threw in there for fun. Here are 2 MP3s...one w/ just the rhythm guitars, and one w/ a lead and drums over the rhythm.

****, that sounds great!
:twisted:

Awesome tone and recording quality! (And great playing, of course.) Nicely done. That XTC sounds killer.

 

[fuzzyguitars]

nice

curious to hear it without the boost though

not enough gain alone with the module?

 

[hyenik]

nice job, only in final mix rhythm guitars are lost
and of course want to hear through normal speaker
G12K85 is pretty unusual speaker, on the other hand why must be everything through V30, but I?m the last who will scream after some soundclip, that must this and that, and other riff, other guitar etc :lol:
so finally Great Chops Man.

Great tone. I get a bit of an Alice in Chains vibe from the riff and tone - very cool. I got rid of an stock XTC around 18 months ago. This sort of tone gets me gassing for an XTC again.
Cheers
