Does anyone have recommendations for a good power metal rig - particularly amps good for recording? I'm not really into the Mesa/Boogie sound, though I have considered the Triaxis if anything. I'm definitly not into Marshall. I used a Laney VH100R with a Carvin Legacy 4x12 in my 80s metal band, which was good for live rhythm and so/so for live lead, but I think that sound is a bit to british crispy high gain for a good power metal sound. I know Engl is a brand frequently used in the genre but I can't find much good info distinguishing between their lines. My fav tone for the genre would be Gamma Ray, especially Somewhere Out in Space, and I also like Shadow Gallery and Blind Guardian guitar tones in particular. I think Michael Romeo has the best lead tone on V I have ever heard. Any suggestions or info would be much appreciated folks, thanks for your time!
