Kustom amps + Cabs

[Seizure.]

Does anybody know how these puppy's sound?

I heard from a band from canada i toured with that its all the rage at the moment in america/Canada.

And after some research it seems they (till now hehe) are going pretty cheap!

Any info would be cool!

Thanks!
JB.

iv never liked kustom there stuff is made pretty poorly and cheap imo. but i havent seen any kustom stuff in like 2 years so they might have gotten better in quality

I'm even talking about the 70's stuff haha

HOT LIXX!!!!

I just like how some of their stuff is upholstered, more amp companies need to jump on that bandwagon

played a quad-jr or whatever the fuck the thing was called through a vox tonelab (the nice version of the pedal) at my friend kelsey's house (hot chick that play guitar, yes it's true.)

it was alright.

Haha, I had one of those tiny Kustom practice amps too. Sounded like pure bees.

Had some Kustom PA speakers for years & years. Weighed a ton & fed back like crazy.

 

[Seizure.]

Hahahah ok!

I just saw a shitload of stonerbands with it aswell, Minsk seems to play on it for one..

Ahwell, i'll check out a 2x15 for starters doesn't cost me alot anyway..

I have a pair of 2x15 PA speakers for monitoring some laptop tracks when practicing and playing live. They're a little midrangey but are nice and loud and seem to be built pretty solid. I actually drove to Buffalo, NY to get a pair from Guitar Center, for like 269.99 or some ridiculously low price. I think they've acutally gone up in price since then. I'm running a Crown 380W/channel power amp and I never turn it past like 9 or 10 o'clock!

I had a custom 10w amp too, it was a bag of shit, but hey good enough for a 13 year old starting out

 

[MetalJonesy]

think everyones owned the old Kustom 10w amp

 

[Metaltastic]

Not me, Peavey Blazer 158! (with reverb! :Spin: )

The double kross could be interesting, but on the other hand…

Coming back to it, I made excellent profits on my Kustom. My dad got it for christmas for me for £20 second hand and i sold it for £25! £5 was a hardcore amount of cash to have when I was 13 ya knw'

I got a Kustom 60 watts SS combo that I've had for like 6 years now, and it has never dissapointed. Never ever had any troubles with it, and it has always sounded more than good enough for jamming/practicing. Very cheap too, like 200 - 250$? Now I run a MT-2 infront of it on the clean channel, and blast out grinding DM riffz all day long.

I (me + my band) also use a Kustom PA for rehersals that I'm not too happy with. I growl pretty damn loud, and we still have to turn it just about all the way up = shitty sound and tons of feedback.

 

[KeithTidd]

i had a 70's custom tuck and roll bass rig. 3x15 cab, solid state head. It was ok.

 

[Seizure.]

3x15.... ouch! must have been loud as fuck man..

 

[The Unavoidable]

Oh yeah, and I also had a Kustom 10w aswell! First amp ever, had distortion coming out the ass! Kinda missed that with my other one.
