HOLY SHIT! (Dar Amps)

[NSGUITAR]

Yes, I know there's a topic about it, but check out the new line of DAR amps, Fredrik Thordendale signature:

I was pretty well impressed with them from Ola's demo. And I must add that I think they looking pretty damn sick as far as amps go.

 

[NSGUITAR]

Yeah. Can't wait to get my hands on a future breed machine!

 

[Deofig]

It sounds like that amp has no balls. It's as if they took every thing I wouldn't like about a tone put it into one amp. The screechyness makes it seem like they are using a tin can and a tiny speaker for a cab.

Edit: ahjteam's vid makes it a bit more appealing, but it's still not the kinda of tone I would go for. Guess it's just personal preference.

I'm sure it has everything to do with the settings fred's using. Even so, the thing has loads of tone and screams

I like Ola's sound better.

 

[Notuern]

I too prefer Ola's clip better.. but god damn that has to be the most agressive tone i have ever heard in the Thorendal clip.

Oh yeah. Me too. but they're two completely different amps.


I love both of them equally, but when it comes down to it.. The Forza is pretty much perfect.

 

[Josh Burgess]

aggressively ear piercing/scratchy maybe

 

[kernelxsanders]

$3700 for just a head. i feel like you can just buy a human head for less; turn the gain up to skull shattering and youve got a bad ass head \m/

 

[Lasse Lammert]

they just sound too dry to me

That's actually one reason I want one.. Oddly enough. I like the tone it pushes, and I like that it does't get oversaturated.. But I'm sure they can. Going to NAMM this year to find out though!

 

[Lasse Lammert]

yeah, not saying they sound bad. just don't really tickle my taste buds

 

[Ermz]

I dig Fredrik's clip. I think it quacks better than the axe-fx. Here's to hoping we get real amps on the next Meshuggah record...

 

[AllanD]

I never understood how people get such smooth tones from T75s, the Fredrik clip sounds awesome.

sounds like the total opposite of smooth to me...

 

[AllanD]

Maybe on its own, but in comparison to other T75 clips I've heard, it doesn't have that extreme boost in the 3-6khz region.

 

[Ermz]

It's *extremely* smooth for a raw G12T-75 clip. It has some abrasive stuff going on in the high mids... but I mean, c'mon, that's the Chaosphere factor

 

[Rex Rocker]

That's not his signature amp, tho, is it? Isn't it just a Forza or whatever those are called?

Here is a quick teaser video of what's coming from DAR Amps very soon....Fredrik Thordendal of Meshuggah testing channel voicings on the Forza Quattro.

DAR Amps - Future Breed Machines......coming soon.
