    Egnater 212 cab

    Thanks for the info! I am running the rig in my signature: RM4 into VHT power amp. Currently I'm using a Randall XL cab with Vintage 30s. I also just ordered a Marshall JMD head, but it has not arrived yet.

    Egnater 212 cab

    I've generally played 412 cabs in the past but am considering picking up a 212. I'd like a tighter sound with slightly less bass than my 412. Can anyone here vouch for the Egnater Tourmaster 212 cab? How do the Celestion Elite 80 speakers compare to Vintage 30s? Any input on this cab or...

    Power amp choices

    I've been using the VHT/Fryette 2/50/2 for seveal years now. It's not as expensive as most folks think. I paid $899 for mine brand new from Guitar Asylum, and that was not part of any special sale or anything. They maintain their resale value very well, though. The main difference between...

    power amp with RM4....

    I don't have any personal experience with the Marshall 20/20 myself...but when I was shopping/researching power amps, I read in numerous places that the Marshall 20/20 sounds good but is prone to overheating.

    What module/settings are you using there? Good hard rockin' tone.

    How about giving us a rundown of which modules you're using on which songs?

    After a while my rm50 combo loses definition...

    My rig gets significantly brighter as the night goes on. Not a little bit, SIGNIFICANTLY. I try to adjust the presence on my power amp to compensate, but it's a pain in the ***, nonetheless. I don't know if it's my RM4 or the VHT power amp that's to blame. I've changed the power tubes a few...

    Video of gig last weekend with my MTS rig...

    George, I checked out your page, but the video I saw contained clips of only 3 songs, plus a drum solo. My band does 2 of those 3 songs (Paralyzer and Slither), so it appears we are playing pretty much the same stuff (modern rock with a few classic rockers thrown in). I liked your tone; it is...

    Hughes and Kettner Switchblade

    To harsh: I just noticed in another thread that you're in a modern metal band. IMO, you really should be looking at the H & K Coreblade, not the Switchblade. The Coreblade is H & K's new, metalized version of the Switchblade. While the Switchblade appears to be voiced for classic rock/hard...

    A&R / Record Label tips?

    1. Wear a chastity belt to any meeting with the record company. 2. Whatever you do, do not sign an "intent to sign" contract with the company. Sometimes the A&R guy will push one of these, saying "don't worry, all it does is formalize our intent to sign you to our label." These "intent to...

    Hughes and Kettner Switchblade

    Bump. I'm also dying to hear some real world feedback on this amp. Most of the youtube clips I've heard sounded very promising, but they're often at bedroom volume and the real test of an amp is in a band situation at gig volumes. Anyone? :?:

    Just ordered the Archetype

    What's the difference between all of the V2 variations?...besides the colors, of course.

    Do you guys find this stupid?

    The real question is does he offer you all this great stuff at bargain prices when he's ready to move onto his next holy grail?

    Which mid frequencies to boost in Plexi, Recto modules?

    I'd like my Plexi and Recto modules to cut a little better in live situations. My other modules (Blackface, Ultra Lead, 1086) all cut well and still sound very warm while doing so. To get a similar level of cut from my Plexi & Recto, I have to set them brighter than I would prefer. For the...

    How much does a RM4 weigh?

    Well, I can't give you the exact weights... But I can tell you that I've got an RM4, a VHT 2/50/2, a 1 space multi-effects, a 1 space tuner, and a 1 space wireless receiver all in a rack. And that sucker definitely weighs more than an RM100! It feels like it weighs more than my 412 cab, which...

    NAMM --news

    No, you just need to start the rumor that the new channel switching RM20s lack the punch and tone of the vintage single channel models. Don't you know that's what guitar players always do whenever any new piece of gear comes out?

    RM4 / Behringer FCB1010

    If you haven't already done so, you are going to have to open up your RM4 and see where the switches are set. No way around it. See my thread on this subject from years ago: http://mtsforum.grailtone.com/viewtopic.php?t=33&highlight=midi The geniuses at Randall shipped my RM4 with the...
