My Custom Baron K2 (CLIPS INSIDE!)

[lolzgreg]

Okay guys. This amp may be the best amp I own. The clean channel is great (no time to make clips yet) and the lead channel can get into REALLY high gain territory. The various different controls on the amp allow you to really pinpoint where you're heading with the mid frequencies. The dampening switch for the power amp really does a lot, and you don't need to use a tubescreamer for this baby to be tight (though so far I still prefer it with one).

First impressions are that this thing is the best amp I have ever played stock. It should be that way, considering it was handmade by someone who knows their shit! I've only had about an hour to get used to this monster. Here a clips:

This is a clip of the Melodeth riff I have been toying around with:

Here is a clip of one of Kyle Odell's songs that he let me reamp and remix:

Also, anyone who doesn't like the snakeskin is a HERB.

I think the tone I nailed for Kyle's song may be one of my best recorded tones aside from the Empire Shall Fall's new album and that stuff I did for Erase Your Memory.

Very nice clips Greg. Sounds like a pretty BAMF'ing amp.

BAMF as for bad ass motherfucker?

I do believe this is the best description for this beast

Congrats man

I sounds kickass

 

[lolzgreg]

Thanks guys. I can't wait till I spend a month or two with it. I'll really be able to get some ridiculous tones from it then

 

[Brandon E.]

How much do these things cost? I know its a custom but ballpark estimate?

 

[lolzgreg]

$1700 free shipping as of now.

 

[Joshua Wickman]

Sounds Amazing!

 

[Soundlurker]

Congrats, sounds very nice!

It's a bit weird my custom amp had the same grill:

Untill Galin showed me the other option, which I liked more:

Edit: actually it's not exactly the same looking at it now, but it's still pretty close.

Is your melodeath clip through the Mills and Kyle's clip through the Mesa by any chance? I don't really like the mids in the melodeath clip. Kyle's clip tone on the other hand sounds quite nice and sits in the mix much better. Not bashing your melodeath clip, just personal preference.

Sounds killer dude! congratz!

Same amp, same cab and microphone. Different settings and placements. Seems like you don't like mids, Hack.

I quite like the Melodeth clip. Sounds great. The Zero System tone sounds abit boring IMO.

 

[iraobryan]

Sounds great!
I personally liked the tone in both clips.

 

[Joematthews]

Sounds fucking tits It's a bit of a beast.
