What are some of your favorite amps?
EVH 5150 III 🔥🔥🔥
R.I.P. EVH
There are so many. For metal, the 5150 designs are really the high bar for an accessible metal amp. For everything else, the original Fender Pro Reverb is my favorite without a doubt. Hiwatts and Dumbles are also, OF COURSE, notables as well as the amazing Valco designs branded under Kay, National and Silvertone.
I use a JCM 900 with a metal zone.
Peavey 6505 or invective. The invective is world changing! It is tight, quick attack on the distortion, and yet still a monster!
Dual Rectifier and Marshall JVM
I got a 50th Anniversary MESA/Boogie Triple Rectifier 150 Multi-Watt Head with the oversized 4X12 slant cab and my neighbors love it!
I love what Khole does! He explains things well. I want to learn more from him!
Yes! I'm a huge fan!!
Kristian is absolutely awesome, I love his channel. The best metal dude on TH-cam hands down. Thank you, Warren for having him on your show.
Thanks ever so much my friend!! I intend to do a lot more with him! I agree! He stands head and shoulders above so many others! He’s super smart and very intelligent!!
@@Producelikeapro Excellent, looking forward to this!
Right now I'm seeing a Soldano weeping in the background.
Surprised that there's not a 5150 in the list, not because of recent events but because it's been used and abused by metal guitar players for a few years now.
I'm almost famous for being the only one who's not in love with the 5150. Haha! And yes, there's a soldano SLO60 in the background. Not the greatest amp either if you ask me.
the 5150 and dual rectifier are both copies of the SLO
@@KohleAudioKult Yeah I was wondering why you didn't have the 5150. I don't use my sims of it that often (though I do like it for leads), but it's so well known as being a heavily used metal amp.
You echo my thoughts OP
Soldano sl60 is not good enough? Oo! Amazing! Why Kristian?
Love the JCM2000. Such an underrated amp.
Agreed! Love my Marshall's!
Never loved Marshall until i played that amp
You can't miss Peavey 5150 for metal tones in a metal amp's ranking
and the Ironheart....
Peavey 5150II one of the best metal amps ever 🤘
The 5150 is one of my favourite Amps EVER! Not so much for Kristian! Haha But I love it!
@Joe Paul great price!
@@mikewatt8871 amazing!
Finally! Happy to see him here! You could see it coming over the last few weeks :D
Haha thanks Chris!!
@@Producelikeapro I'm kinda hoping for an IR pack with Kristian! As far as I know there are zero IRs out there with that beautiful Rupert Neve/SE Electronics tube mic out there
Really enjoyed this episode. I am a metal producer as well. I have watched all of Christians videos. Thanks for having him on. He is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to heavy music production.
I have a JCM 900 (original) and following the recommendations on Christian's channel I replaced 2 of the speakers in my 4X12 with an Eminence Governor and Man o War and the result was incredible. Speakers / cabs are perhaps the most important thing in the signal chain... after the player.
Thanks man!
Kristian Kohle is the man! Im not a total metal guy when it comes to guitar tones, but I never miss his videos. Always quality stuff!
Thanks ever so much Michael!!
Definitely a master in his craft. As a sommelier harmonizing the perfect wine with a dish, is Kohle with metal guitar tones and his music.
That sounded nice! Thank you!
Agreed Tadeu!
@@KohleAudioKult yes, it was rather nice wasn't it!
the dual rec and rockerverb are my favorite metal amps too, especially blended together they cover a great frequency spectrum!
Blending is best always . Think about all of our favorite sounds on record. Almost every one of those is a blend
Kristian deserves more recognition! Pretty wild seeing you two together haha
That Diezel amp sounds so brutal but also so smooth it's very nice sounding!
Agreed
Diezels are amazing. Only this I like more is Wizard . But now I blend the two
Rectifier!!! Good to see this great cooperation.
Thanks ever so much!
Great episode! Kristian is so knowledgeable! I love how passionately he explains the features of each amp.
Agreed! Kristian knows his Schnizzle!
@@Producelikeapro have you ever produced a metal record, Warren?
Thanks man!
So awesome an interview man, with of course amazing knowledge at hand! Cheers!
Thanks ever so much RC32!
@@Producelikeapro My pleasure!
I love Kohle. I have been subscribed to his channel for a long time. He knows his stuff. I was surprised the original Peavy 5150 amp was not on the list. I see it used by a lot of metal players.
I grew up with the Bay Area thrash sound. Most of the bands of that era used JCM800s, often boosted with a pedal. You can’t tell me that mid to late 80s thrash bands like Testament, Exodus, Flotsam and Jetsam, Anthrax, etc. didn’t get some of the most brutal tones ever out of those amps. Suicidal Tendencies, Gothic Slam, Wasted Youth, Nuclear Assault. Lääz Rocket, I could go on.
Also Trevor Peres from Obituary🤘🏼
And the Mark series Boogies. (Not featured here)
I discovered Kristian doing these studio clips about a year ago as I started to play guitar on a more personal level...the thing I like the most is the way he explains the different ways to combine and blend different tones with so many options as far as amps,speaker tone,pedals,etc......ive learned a great deal just from watching Kristian...I've bought a bunch of different pedals to fart around with I've bought different speakers to change out in some of my combo amps or cabinets .....i learned the proper way to blend distortion/ boost pedals with fuzz pedals for a dirtier mid type tone ...I'm just a guy who really wants to learn about everything involved in music guitars,volts,ohms,tone parameters,blending of tones ,....etc..... i try to soak up whatever information i can basically lol😂🤟🤟🤟🤟🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏 Kristian did a video awhile back at hapas guitar company/workshop in Germany showing the ways how they build guitars from scratch and that just blew me away!!!! Those luthiers at hapas are two badass mutha truckas 😝😝😝😝🎸🎸🎸🤟🤟🤟🤟🙏🙏🙏💜
Great stuff. Leaned a lot (I don’t play metal). Kristian says for metal that a main challenge is balancing the clarity, especially in the bass, and that intense distortion. For blues and roots music, my main challenge is balance between warmth and clarity.
Biggest surprise is how sweet that Diezel sounded. Consider me extremely impressed.
Thanks! People always expect Diezel to sound over the top metal. Scooped and fat. Not the D-Moll!
I LOVE how you can hear the tones in those extended chords on the orange! Doing my research for my next amp for metal style music 🤘
My favorite is the Peavey Triple XXX even though it gets so much hate. That thing rips! 🤘
Great amps
Guy's a legend...... Opens beer with studio gear!
My signature move. Perfect match!
Haha yes he is Michael!!
@@KohleAudioKult All things Beer is your signature!!
@@KohleAudioKult Those German Beers too.... Germany and Belgium put the rest of the world to shame when it comes to brewing beer! I usually try and get over and do a bit of drinking/touristing in Berlin every year (it's my favourite city) but 2020 says "NO", haha! I loved your shootout video that proved cabs are the most effective part of a guitarist's chain! It was one of the more informative tutorials I've watched over the past year! Recording.... Beer: the two best elements in this thing we call life, haha!
@@Producelikeapro Fantastic content as always, Warren!
I'm going to get myself signed up for the academy ASAP! Your videos have taught me most of what I know regarding recording and production! I still find it difficult to imagine you rocking out to METAAAAAAAL though; you're so polite, haha!
I don't know what we did to deserve Kohle but I'm so happy we have him. I agree with a lot of this picks. Mine would be
JCM 2000 DSL 100
Diezel D-Moll
Orange Rockerverb but the mk. III
Bogner Überschall
VHT/Fryette Pitbull
Engl Savage or Retro Tube - can't decide
I'd kick the Recto out for a Soldano SLO
Dover DA-50
Framus Cobra
EVH 5150 III
I think the first and 2nd generation 5150 amps need to be on this list. Also, and this is just my preference is the old Carvin X50B and X100B amps, very versatile and fly under the radar all the time, great amps
I run a stereo set up through a Swiss things pedal to 2 amps, my Marshall jcm800 combo 4010 and my Carvin X50B with 4x12 cab. Great full sound!
Great video, found it very interesting.
I used to play death metal / grind core in the 90s using a Metal Zone and Marshall JCM 800 on 1960 cabinet... Would be interesting to have a similar discussion on amp sims (especially the free ones). Cheers for putting that together!
Doing a similar video with cabinet and mic review could be a good idea too... At least cabinet since they make 90% of your tone...
Francois Bonet Thanks!
I just did a cabinet video on my channel and there will be more very soon.
@@KohleAudioKult Cool, I'll check the Mesa vs Marshall video on your channel. I think I know who is the winner (and it's not the one I'm quoting above...) :) Interestingly a lot of the amps you reviewed here seem to be in the upcoming Audio Assault Reamp Studio amp sims.
@@francoisbonet289 fantastic idea!
@@KohleAudioKult marvellous!
Many may laugh but the Peavey Renown of 1984 had a great transistor saturation sound on its lead channel and a clean ‘normal’ channel with 3-way footswitch. In fact when the Bhundu Boys from Zimbabwe were in town they would call me up and borrow my Peavey because the clean channel really suited African music guitar sounds.The lead channel gave a great saturation sound people like ZZ-Top took advantage of. The amp died last year. RIP. Or maybe it will be resurrected . Großartiges video, Dankeschön 😎
My amp didn't make the cut, although I don't know if I'd describe anything I play as metal and certainly not death metal. I am currently playing a Mark V:35 through an 80s Mesa Halfback cab which gives me about all the options I need for everything from clean to high gain. One of the top two speakers (the C90/Black Shadow) died on me, so I had to put in a new one, which actually gave me slightly different tone options to mic up to (newish speaker vs. 80s speaker of the same model). These days I actually mic the newer, brighter speaker with a Royer and the older, darker one with a dynamic (Blue 100i). Another amp that missed the cut, but which I think is underrated (but also expensive) is the PRS Archon. I love my Mesa enough that I've resisted adding an Archon to my collection, but I'm often tempted (and probably will eventually).
Awesome video! I'm a drummer, but I love learning about this kind of stuff and the format was excellent.
Ahhhhh LOVE the sound of the ENGL 60 W. Thanks for another video, rest in power Eddie.
Well put together video and there wasn't a bunch of bla bla bla talk. Right to the point and so many amps and sounds to tease my brain. Amazing video Warren. My Favorite Yet! You Rock!!!!!
Great video, Kristian is one of the few youtubers that is capable of keeping my attention high for an entire video!
Super awesome and super exciting video! Thank you so much Warren and Kristian! So much new and great info for me in this wonderful video!
I'm not a big metal fan but Kohel is an awesome player and explained everything so well. I was impressed by the Orange amplifier considering the cost factor. The Brunetti has a very cool sound. The Mesa Boggie Duel Rectifier is still the one to beat though. This was really an excellent video.✌
I agree completely but, I love metal!
Hi Joseph, yes, Kristian is fantastic!
@@erikkroll2154 YES!
Thank you guys for sharing your passion like this in such a natural and chill way, I learnt a lot in the last couple of months thanks to both of you, it helped me a lot to set up my mind for what may suits my style. Wish you the best from France ;)
Again such a great video. I can't tell how much I appreciate your content. I'm watching recording related stuff since 12 years now (and by the way, also produce, engineer, record and mix music totally unsuccessful :P) but with every video Christian did, he skyrocketed to one of my favourite producers. I think this screams for a Pro Mix Academy course. I would love to see that. I can only say thank you both and now I want to have a Diezel even more. Best regards und schöne Grüße aus dem Taunus! ;)
Haha! Danke dir! Gruß aus dem Odenwald!
I love Kristian's videos! They are incredibly informative and entertaining. Thank you for featuring him on your channel!
Fantastic!! Me too! That’s why I was so excited to have him on the show!!
Sickest amp I have recorded was a 4 ch Elmwood.
But have had good results with my Marshall jcm800 Kerry King signature, 5150 and mesa duel rectifer
Elmwood Modena, awesome amp!!!!
Thanks for sharing Dan!!
@@fgurdian thanks!
yes!! the elmwood modena has a massive sound. but hard to get one these days
Great guy. Was fun watching. Thx for this show.
Thanks ever so much
Mesa Recto variant, 5150 variant, and modded Marshall variants are super common but I think something like Diezels and Engls have really unique and distinct sounds.
Just recorded our bands guitarist with his orange rockerverb for our album and it fits really great! Funny that I described the sound to him like "beautyful creamy distortion". We recorded 2 tracks for both sides each for rhythm guitars pushed with a little tubescreamer to get it a bit tighter in the mids. Had the joy to combine a sm57, md421 and a C414 (I love that one!) to capture a celestian cream speaker. Our music varies from metal to hardcore and punk, so that amp combines all these types of music very nice. And yes, it sings and can combine palm muted riffs with picking and melodies. Cool that you collaborate Warren and Kristian! You bring out great knowledge and your videos are always educating with a lot of entertainment! Thumbs up!
This is helping me A LOT right now, I'm trying to learn guitar, haven't even got equipment yet because I'm lefty in Canada... so this type of discussion is golden for making decisions right now.
I love my Revv Generator 120. The aggression switches on the purple and red channels and the bright, contour, and fat switches can really get an amazing metal tone.
Two of my fav guys in one vid! Thanks warren!
I recently pulled the trigger and got my very first really nice amp. I thought long and hard and decided to go for a Mesa Mark V. Dry, agressive, focused and EXTREMELY versatile. I've been dreaming about it for quite some time, now.
Thank you for the guided tour through these amps, Kristian & Warren. Even for a non-metal guitarist, it was fascinating & detail-rich. So many different excellent ways to get the job done!
Bought a dsl50 and jcm800 cab last year for £300. The guy didn’t know what he was letting go of!
Amazing!!
The Bat Cat Lynx is the most overlooked and biggest sleeper high gain amp out there. Its the only piece of gear I regret ever selling (was on a boogie kick at the time).
Ok I'm sitting here in my living room watching you 2 guys talk about all the aspects of what you're talking about and it totally makes sense to me. Thank you all because I'm a subscriber now and I agree with what you Guys talk about.
Fantastic video! Great to hear all these amps in context with each other... it really shows their strengths and weaknesses. I've watched Kristian's videos before, the point he made about the cab being the most important factor really stuck with me - proper real world experience from a guy that does this shit day in day out. As a 2 channel triple rec owner the contrast between the Mesa and the Diezel was like...whoa...bloody expensive kit but amazing...maybe if I can get better at recording I could own all of them someday :)
Metal is not my preferred style, but, man, that's been interesting. Thanks!
Thanks ever so much Jürgen!
Thoroughly enjoyed watching this video, Warren & Kohle. Thank you! What’s really nice is how clearly Kohle communicated each amp’s character/ tonality. With both genuine amp love , and studio/ engineer language, e.g. frequency ranges, etc.
On a side note, I’d love to hear any other Wes Borland stories you have, or any of the alt rock/ metal bands and producers you were sharing space with through the 90’s/ early 2000’s.
Cheers 🍻!
You’re welcome! Happy to hear that! ❤️🍺
I use a EVH 5150 III with a Orange 1x12, love the sound that comes out. Very keen to change it up to a vertical 2 for some more headroom but almost unbeatable IMO
I miss my favorite amp in this list: EVH 5150III 100W with EVH 4x12 Cab
The 50w 6l6 is a beast too! They are used EVERYWHERE but aren't yet "iconic" maybe? Give it more time, they'll catch on.
Great amp Paul!
@@beautague9163 great amp!
@@beautague9163 I hear you on that..I love my 50 watt 5150-3 head and matching 2-12" speaker cabinet..I have had about 12-15 other amp heads here and the 5150-3 always beats them out. I have the 6L6 head and about to get the Stealth 50 watt head.
This taught me a lot about the importance of mid-range in distorted tones.
Thanks ever so much for sharing!
I love the diversity between the Rectifier and the Orange. Just tells you a whole different musical story
Agreed 100%!
I think the orange amp here sounds amazing! High gain but you can play some weird chords and hear every note.
We use the thunderverb, with a mesa cab. Love it.
Great combo! I just did a video about the unbeatable Mesa Oversized cab.
Thanks for sharing SHOALS!
@@KohleAudioKult marvellous!
Tube screamer into a jcm800 worked for maiden works for me, or an AC30 run a Rat into it
Yeeees! I've been waiting for this colab to happen 🤘
Been through a bunch of high gain metal amps, but nothing came close to the Marshall JCM800 for me.
Some people may find the stock 2203 to lack gain, but there are simple ways of modding them for increased gain.
Thanks ever so much for sharing Andrei!
@@Producelikeapro thank YOU for the awesome content, looking forward to more colabs with Kohle :d
@@AndreiGrozea Thanks ever so much Andrei! Yes, Kristian rules!!
Ultralead for the win! One of my favorites. Never fails to make me grin.
Bought as a newbie my Bugera 333XL ... im still very happy with this cheap but powerful amp :D
Incredible amp- tri rec clone also great w beAutiful cleans
The problem with the JCM2000 is that the PCB that the power tubes are mounted on to can slowly turn conductive over time and then you blow the power transformer and they're about 100quid to replace alone, you can pick the amps up for not that much more. It's a factory problem and there's no predicting it, unfortunately. At that point, the only way to save it is to replace the power transformer and either have the board replaced (not sure of the price of replacements), or have it repaired...and that can be quite costly as it's pretty extensive, I know, as I had to do this to my own JCM2000 and have done it for others
Fucking great amp, though. Can pick them up really cheap and honestly, great bang for the buck.
Like Kohle says, if you grew up in the 90's, that cheap transistor distortion is ingrained in your musical taste... it is for me, and i love that kind of sound. I got myself a lot of Preamp pedals recently and they all sound great through some power amp emulation and a good IR
Finally someone in the same boat! Cheers! ❤️🍺
Ampeg vh140c and ss150c are such amazing solid state metal amps.
I own a VHT 2/90/2 with a VHT GP3, it's absolutely killer. Even with little distortion you still have a brutal sound with punchy attack and it's the cleanest sound I've ever heard, it's just the same thing as playing an acoustic guitar, you really hear everything you do unlike other amps that hide all subtility behind tons of fizz and hiss. Underestimated brand.
I always think about this amp like an american truck sound vs sport cars sound (rectifier etc).
Gonna have to revisit that tone shift on my DSL. When I try it, it's the kaka button, but sounds pretty cool when you tried it. Also, in this context, that Diezel was fricking awesome.
Thanks man! And yes, go revisit that toneswitch. The Transatlantic switch!
Awesome collection of amplifiers. I enjoy listening to the amps and learned a lot about what to listen for on the different models and tones. Thank you Kristian and Warren. I would love to see more collaborative videos of you two guys together in the future.
Thanks man! We will! ;)
Danke Marc!! Ja, Kristian Rocks!
@@KohleAudioKult definitely!!
Great video guys. One of the most interesting I've seen. And I'm not a metalhead by any means. Very cool, and thank you!
You're welcome!
Thanks ever so much! Glad you enjoyed it!!
Great video, very informative - and you guys are cool!
Glad to be able to help! Thanks ever so much
I love videos from both of you. So this should be great! Keep up the great work guys.
Thanks ever so much
Thanks a lot dude!
Fantasic breakdown, thanks Kristian!
Danke Sam!! Kristian ist wunderbar! Haha
Great video! Missing the Peavey 5150 and the Hughes & Kettner Triamp 2 (another great German company btw). That Soldano in the background should also have made the cut. What was the solid-state amp used in the video? Marshall 8100 Valvestate? Would love a video where Kristian gives his input on rack preamps for metal (e.g., Marshall JMP-1, ADA MP-1, Mesa/Boogie Triaxis, Engl E530, Synergy Syn 2).
Oh yeah, that's a good idea.
Some awesome amps there, really wouldn't complain about having any one of em! I've been playing through a Mesa Dual Rec Roadster for the last 12 years. The 4 channels are what keeps me playing it, lots of versatility. That being said I'm super impressed with the latest EVH 5150 iii, Peavy Invective 120, and the Mark V. One of these days im going to add one of them to my arsenal. Im definitely jealous of the cats with multiple heads and cabs to choose from haha.
Cab is most important factor. I put my lunchbox ENGL Ironball amp into my Mesa 1x12 cab then into my larger Orange 4x12 cab and the larger Orange cab makes it a wall of sound. Saves me a ton of money without need to buy a 5k amp head for now.
Great! Thanks ever so much
@@Producelikeapro you're welcome. I saw a large difference from Orange 412 with V30 speakers and the Bogner Uberkab 412 with mix of V30 and Greenback G12 speakers.
For home use with bigger amps, I recommend a volume pedal. A good volume pedal will keep your tone the same, but at lower volumes. Now that I found out how much volume can be reduced with one, I am no longer scared of how loud a bigger tube amp will be in my house. I will use a 2x12 Cab which is all you need for only small and medium sized gigs and if you are on a mic at bigger shows than you will be able to get enough volume anyways. As to 4x12s sounding fuller, in a band mix I don't want too much bass anyways.
I'd choose Dual Rec/JCM2000/Ubershall out of those with the small tweak of the Soldano SLO100 for the recto since Mesa just ripped off the preamp!
Guilty as charged about the impulse responses. When I first got a digital pre-amp pedal and compared its cab simulation against plugging it in the back of many different power amp/cab combinations, I realized how important the cab is.
Amazing video! Kohle is so fricking cool! And my favorite is probably the ENGL Savage ;)
Do you want me to do another "Engl Only" edition for you?
@@KohleAudioKult Yes please!
This was really, really awesome!!! Thanks Warren! I already follow him but love you had him on your channel!!!
I appreciate this high quality video. Screw the world, let's just get in-depth about gear.
My favorite rock and metal amp is the mesa boogie dual rectifier Metallica used for load the house jack built makes the dual rectifier sound even better
Thanks ever so much for sharing
Damn straight....although the deziel vh4 kinda kicks the dual recs ass just a small bit...lol
@@michaelmitchell5909 err no. I own both. Both great amps but for brutality and metal.. I’m firing up the recto over the vh4
these amps excite me so much....im playing lotto again this weekend😸😸😸
Wiegedood uses Orange amps and they sound like you don't need a bass (which they don't have). Here in Argentina I saw a lot of Orange amps in underground metal, I am a bit surprised that it is not a reference. I would like to see something similar but with inexpensive amps and small combos as for someone just starting out and has no idea which amp to use to make metal. Very good video! I take it as a birthday present! 🤣
Would be cool to see one of these for punk (all eras). There's so much geared towards metal, us punks feel left out
More to come my friend!
@@Producelikeapro awesome! I really hope one day we get to see something from Bill Stevenson and Jason Livermore, those guys are amazing
Kohle is the man! Great video!
Rectifier rocks!
The glaring omissions here are the Peavey 5150 (in all its forms) the Mesa Mark IV (V as well) and the Soldano SLO-100 (which is basically a Dual Rec). I also VERY highly rate the ancient Peavey Century (solid state, absolutely CRUSHING brutal old school death metal sounds - before it even existed, somehow - from circa 1980)
Yes, or the Petrucci mesa. Peavey JSX is the most underrated one of all time, and the prs tremonti the most overrated. Also, marshall silver, marshall valvestate, engl fireball, engl savage, HK grandmeister, Peavey invective. But if i ever got a real amp again itd be EVH 50w stealth.
@@fredriksvard2603 I have the Stealth and can't recommend it enough
it’s called style.
Thanks a lot! Great collab!
Diezel sounds like Mesa and Marshall son. Best of two world.
@@SlimFingerSPb Kinda makes sense, haha!
After watching this video I feel very proud to own a diezel Herbert and a VHT Pitbull.. it took me a lot if years to purchase but it was worth the effort!
w000t! so great see you both guys in a video!
Okay, so I'm looking for a bit of advice from those of you guitarists who are in the loop. I've played in a number of metal bands throughout the late 1980s through the 1990s, then life took over, family, kids, etc... I used to own a 50 watt Marshall JCM800, and couldn't begin to count how many live shows I put that amp through. That same amp head also served as my practice amp. Eventually I had to pawn that amp for money, and have been seriously considering psychological therapy ever since just to find out WTF I was thinking! Anyway, I'm now at 55 years old and embarking on my mid life crisis, and want to get into another band. Either that or go out and get a 19 year old girlfriend, but my wife seems to think getting back into a band might be the better option. However, the only amp I own now is a little Yamaha practice amp, definitely not suitable for anything other than practicing alone and recording. Amps have come a long long way since I've been out of the loop, so I'm looking for some advice as I shop for a new amp head to be able to play live with a band. I'm looking to be able to go from an AC/DC sound to a more modern metal tight low end sound like Five Finger Death Punch, and a few sounds in between. Any advice on such an amp head? Or does such an amp not exist?
There’s many Amos with huge consistent low end. The EVH is of course a favourite for that, the Überschall is also amazing! REVV make incredible amps as well that deliver the sound you’re looking for! ENGL have amazing options as well! There’s a lot of great choices
@@Producelikeapro Thanks a bunch. I haven't even heard of REVV or the Überschall. I'll definitely be checking those out.
I love my EVH 5153 for metal.
100 watt EVH 5150 III, THE best amp there is... tone, power, and DEPENDABILITY!
I love my 5153!!
Love Kristian's channel
My fav Rectifier sound but Orange surprised me positively. Thanks guys for review this amps 👍
I agree! I was really surprised!!
@@Producelikeapro Thanks Warren. Would be nice if you can do also with electric bass tone or amps. Its very rare in my opinion bass tone but very important. Keep working,cheers
