My band is supporting in london! :rock: Looking forward to it very much. havent seen Threshold live for ages now. Will be interesting to see what the chin stroking progster brigade think of us.

problem is i'm not made of money so i'd have to sell my 5150 to get the blackstar. hmm, dunno what to do, that 5150 has never let me down, but some new tones might be a nice, hmm?

If i get one i'll prob get a 100 head, u can get them for £850. Not cheap like a windsor etc but similar price to a 6505 (i've already got a 5150 mk1 head).

I think it sounds pretty cool. Mix and tones are a little weird but i think low quality mp3 and you tube compression might have caused that. Yeah its not as good without christian but he's gone so what can u do? I'd rather have this than no more scar symmetry albums.

You should, i was v. impressed! and i'm pretty picky with tones etc. We are considering endorsement too. And regarding prices, they are weirdly expensive on Thomann. U can get them cheaper than that if u look around, they are UK company and i'm in UK so i guess thats why i have seen good...

Played thru a series one 200 head and cabs at a festival recently and was really impressed! Crunchy ENGL'y mids but more bottom end and cleans were nice jangley mesa type cleans. IMO. Was considering getting the 100 head but thought i'd check here if any of u have tracked or played around with...

Yeah top one is my mates 10 Masked Men. Done 4 albums and an ep of this sorta stuff.

I use same as Ashgarth. Sometimes if i cant get hold of them i have to use Rotosound 54's with non wound g, but that is only if i get real desperate as non wound g sucks!:Puke:

genius! i thinks its the sign of a good song when it works in any genre :kickass:

sadly no, just posted him dvd's with sessions and audio files on (we tracked ourselves). Never even met the guy, only spoke via email. Album came out great tho! will let ya'll know when we have clips up on myspace etc (my band is Pythia by the way). And a nice touch is that i think he only...

Most of mine have already been mentioned here. Sevendust - Animosity Dark Tranquility - Fiction Nickelback - any of the last 3 or 4 albums Scar Symmetry - Holographic Universe (the chorus on Morphogenesis! oh mother!) Bergstrand stuff usually has massive bottom end - stabbing the drama...

v nice mix! guitar tone is great! With a new singer this band could almost be passable. Seriously that dude has to be one of the worst vocalists ever!

I used to have a spector q5pro with emg hz's and the active eq and it sounded fantastic! tried out higher end spectors with active emg's and wasnt keen, sounded very punchy and loud (probably great for finger players) but i prefered the smoothness and rumble of the hz's (sounded better for pick...

Again, Spot On! I was dissapointed when i saw Chimiara and Devildriver live a few months back as they werent very tight and tonally didnt sound very good (thin guitars, boomy drums etc). Is this andy's fault?, no, its the band and sound engineers fault that they arent able to live up to the...

SPOT ON, IMO!
