    Having been privileged enough to have had an hour or so play around with one of the beastly amps, i can say, hand on heart, it is by far one of the best amps i have ever played in my 25 years of guitar gear nerding :)
    Cleans = crystal clear and warm
    Crunch = from easy break up to good saturation
    Lead = well you just heard that played by Mr Merrow
    This thing has a Tube Screamer circuit built in and is usable on every channel, and is controlled by a foot switch.
    Sooo much versatility.
    £2600 with a cover and footswitch ($3700)
    Better get saving then :D

      MyPenguinsFly I do believe it's been announced that they'll be available as a 7 string set, yes.

      @flips220 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      MyPenguinsFly They will. Just give it time. Mark and SD have both informally hinted they'll be available in the future. The real question is if they'll ever make their way to being production models, or if they'll only ever be SD Custom Shop.
      edit: Keith is even playing the 7 set in this video. They exist. Now you just have to wait till they are made available to the public.

    Hello Keith, is it possible to get the Alpha/Omega Set from Duncans Custom Shop on Request ? I know that they were a limited Edition, but i think that there is a market for it on the Custom Shop or even better, if they would be available regular. In combination with the Driftwood Amp, they sound amazing and i can imagine, they would sound awesome with an Mesa Mark V, too. Hope to hear from you.

    The amp sounded fine, but I particularly liked the tune.
    I'd personally have liked to hear the amp with a V30 rather than a Creamback since it'd be a more "standard" point from which I could compare other metal tones.
