Well they said they would send me a warranty card and a tube. wellll 5 days after that I got a used tube but no card, but by the time I was waiting I just got some new tubes. Soooo. really do I have a warranty on the amp.

i say 5150...but that is cuz i have one...i'm pretty sure I played a triple rect and wasn't to impressed...i've never really like their distortion...5150 is good for thrash though...I managed to get a killer thrash tone the other day...sounded like exodus from bonded by blood or metallica from kill 'em all...was pretty cool.

Get a Randall, i played one in the music store the other day i nutted in my pants. I've never played with a Mesa but i heard they were damn good, but no bargain price  . Same with the Randalls.

If you crank that with those settings you're going to get a pile of mushy feedbacky shite tone. |

Yeah lots of treble sounds wicked at low volumes but if you bring that to a rehearsal with a loud drummer you'll find that it's simply way too much treble and not enough mids, the cymbals will eat you alive.

yeah once I get home for the summer I intend to test the full blunt of my 5150...place I'm at now I can't be insanely loud...at home I have a lot more room and there is a shitload more space between neighbors...the settings are still good though if you are playing around to like a CD though. |
