Reaper Posted July 9, 2003 Report Share Posted July 9, 2003 Not to pull a "none of the above", but realistically, I've heard some awesome things said about the Carvin tube amps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedy McFeely Posted July 9, 2003 Report Share Posted July 9, 2003 um, you only need one choice up there. seems everyone agrees with me, mesa/boogie. they are some really great sounding amps. i dream of a triple rectifier at night. i wake up wet and disappointed.

westhemann Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 i chose line 6 cause i have heard good things.by the way i HATE the dual rectifier.not articulate at all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveK Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 If I can't get a Bogner....I vote for a Marshall. But it has to be an old (good) JCM 800! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the third eye Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 i voted mesa but you really need bogner and carvin up there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 Well in all fairness he could only post 10 choices, and since it's a freebie anyway who's gonna complain if you were offered one of those 10 for free Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the third eye Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 but with a range like that would anyone ever choose a rocktron?...etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rokstr Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 I picked Mesa, but I sure would love a Hi-Watt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the third eye Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 exactly, well mesa looks to be the favourite so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuckguitarist Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 Line 6 amps, in my opinion sound too computer generated and artificial, but then again, thats kinda the tone you have to expect from a digital modeling amp i guess...

PaulNeeds Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 Hey Brian, with all these votes for the California kids, you should put it to them that 9/10 Projectguitar.com voters choose Mesa/Boogie in return for an amp as a prize! Just wish I could get mine sorted. Never mind, perhaps I'll get a nice 40w valve Fender one of these days... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guitar_ed Posted July 11, 2003 Report Share Posted July 11, 2003 Howdy, I just plunked down the cash for a Peavey Classic 50/212. I tried the Fenders, Marshalls, and some other tube amps, but the 50/212 in clean mode is "it" for me. Actually, the Marshall 40 watt tube amp came in a close second. Oh well.

Scott D. Posted July 11, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 11, 2003 All of you guys were complaining about what I put up there, but...

Alchool Posted July 12, 2003 Report Share Posted July 12, 2003 but with a range like that would anyone ever choose a rocktron?...etc I voted Marshall because I like the sound, but the best for me would be a Rocktron Prophesy Guitar System pre with Marshall EL34 100/100 Dual Monobloc Power Amp and Marshall 4x12 with Celestion Vintage 30 speakers... yes, it's Mustaine's gear.... love that sound...

hezochiah Posted July 12, 2003 Report Share Posted July 12, 2003 Went with Randall because I have a 20W practice amp by them that is great. I have to believe that their bigger amps are just killer. Just my $.02... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the third eye Posted July 12, 2003 Report Share Posted July 12, 2003 yes, the rocktron prophesy might be really good but we're not talking about rack pre's, rather 100w 1/2stacks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Power Violence Posted July 15, 2003 Report Share Posted July 15, 2003 I like mine (I.e. my rich drummer's) 100 W Trace Elliot http://www.trace-elliot.com/electric/strampquad.html I heard it was a jazz amp, and not good for real big distortion, but it holds up with my digitech metal master, and also its got a nice spring reverb on it (I wish I could turn it off and on, meh) which makes it sound good when playing ska. I swear to god I have not once used the crazy quad chorus but it is really nice the double distortion is a bit nuts (figuring that I have a digitech metal master) but the clean/distrotion change is nice. I think I am going to buy him another channel selector (So that I can abuse both the channel selector AND the boost) Do I work for trace-elliot? No Would I for a nice head and cab? Yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
