like in Under the Northern Star. that kind of deep growl if you look at turbid north, the black dahlia murder, cannibal corpse, i can do lows like those. but i want to get it really deep. any tips?

meh, i never liked the 5150IIIs but it seems decent here savage wins my all time favorite amps are the 5150/6505 though

i just cannot get along with the red channel. it seems too harsh and fizzy and not enough oomph and do you like your sd-1? i've been told it adds a lot of grittiness and the 6505 has a lot of that already so it might not be the best idea

i'm 15 and yeah i shovel driveways and shit when it snows. I love my emg. i don't plan on swapping it for something else anytime soon. i wouldnt want to risk dropping 200 on a bareknuckle pickup and not liking it. now that i've bought my rig every dollar is precious

yeah with my rg550 with an emg 81 in the bridge i have no problem getting a tight brutal metal tone. maybe when i have enough money to get an od and a noise gate COMFORTABLY- by this i mean not being broke afterwards, i'll give it a try and see if i like

ok. i'll go with the sd-1. and an unrelated question, how can i tell what year my 6505 is?

most of those clips sound pretty similar, i think i'll try an sd-1. they're only like 50 bucks on amazon. but.. in YOUR opinion is the 808 THAT much better? is it worth the extra hundred dollars?

you seem pretty legit, i'm going to listen to you. so if i get an 808 it won't force me to drop more cash on a noise gate to go along with it?

it's actually tight now. well, it might just be my perspective because my last amp was a peavey bandit 112. this is my first "real" amp. and yes i do use an emg 81. but the word "smooth" i don't like. the tone i'm going for (and pretty much have) is a raw balls-out wall of sound type distortion...

*sigh* everyone's telling me i need all these extras but i have no money left from buying this rig. quite frankly, i love the tone without anything but the amp. but once i scrape some money together i guess i'll try an od808 just for the hell of it. i've only cranked it up to 2.5-3 and...

i use an rg550 with an emg 81 in the bridge

would a ts9 work just as well? more affordable

I just jam with my band and make covers we aren't even gigging yet. we're all high school sophomores. hoping to start very soon though

I'm just worried there's something wrong with my red channel since i prefer the green over it so much, and most of the 5150/6505 owners i know, who play metal, use the red. and i'm as big a brutal metal guy as anyone

oh wow...i guess i'm not crazy
