Anyone else have wood for this amp?

[Loren Littlejohn]

I really dig it. Although I think Mick is a bit of a tard when explaining it :Smug:. Thing just sound good to me. Although the price can go fuck itself .

I've never known or heard anything about Rivera before until recently, but now I'm kinda curious about 'em as well. That's one boring looking amp though, with just one straight line of a shitload of knobs :Smug:

sounds pretty cool on the video, but recorded, I've never thought Slipknot had a particularly good tone...

MT has signature fucking everything.

Electric guitar
Amp
Cab
Celestian Speakers
Acoustic guitar (with a big fat seven on it)
Probably missed a few items lol

I'm still waiting for his signature lube-less condoms that he wraps his wireless in.

All them endorsements and his drummer writes most of the guitar riffs. And the Bass player writes the rest.

I don't give a fuck about slipknot (I thought the most recent album sucked out loud) I'm merely stating that I like the sound coming out of that bastard.

Yeah I hear you, plus from what I see some of those knobs are push pull to do other shit, I'm pretty sure some of them also have buttons on top of the knobs (unless I saw that wrong). But I'm not a live guy so I could tweak all day...

The clips and everything sounded pretty cool. I never cared for Mick's tone but the vid sounded good. Whether or not you like Slipknot, Mick knows his shit. Whenever there's a chance to check out his rig and whatnot, I always do because I know it'll be pretty cool yet practical. He's obviously a gear nut and despite what I think about his band, I'd definately take an amp with his name on it into consideration, if nothing else just to try out.

Seems like an amazing amp actually. I'd love to have the chance to try it out...

Two of the best sounding recorded guitar tones in the late 80s/early 90s came out of a Rivera amp.
While most metal bands we're scooping the shit out of their amps (a tone I never did like), there were two "glammy" metal bands punching the mids and getting a great tone for the time.
Skid Rows Slave to the Grind was all Rivera heads, and Saigon Kick were also using Rivera.
I saw Saigon Kick open for Extreme in 1991, they were fkn awesome. I stood about 8 feet from the guys cab, it almost fkn blew my face off.
Great amps.
