    Mesa had that guttural grunt. Brutal.
    EVH has the glassy modern attack. Another flavor of brutal.

    The Mesa has more grind to it which is crazy awesome! The 5150 has a lot more gain to it. For me the go to amp for Lead guitar is the 5150. For Rhythm is going to the Badlander for the gritty rectifier distortion tones 💀

      Eh, they benefit from a Tubescreamer being on for sure. I remember I used mine for rhythms on a track, and forgotten I'd turned my TS9 off, and when I listened back, I was like "There's something underwhelming about this..." It was lacking that bite that OD pedals give. Had to re-do the tracks.

  • @heatnationwpb

    I actually prefer the Mesa Boogie, however slightly. They're both dope, but the palm-muted chugs sound better on the Badlander. The 5150 just sounds a little brittle to me when chugging.
    I'd like to try panning one of each to each side - they probably sound great together.

    Nice comparison. I own a 5150 IIIS and a Tube Screamer in front of the third channel isn’t really necessary even with the gain below 12 o‘clock. The third channel has more than enough gain stages and diode clipping. For the Badlander it makes sense to get rid of some of the bassy flubbyness. The second channel of the Stealth is really what distinguishes it from the basic 5150 III, since it’s first gain stage is the first triode of the third channel with a different coupling cap and voltage dividers following.

      Tremonti does use pairs of amp. Last time i saw a stage it was a Dual Rectifier and a Diezel.
      Parkway Drive does use the 5150 for their base sound. But they highly modify the amp befor they capture it with the Kemper, and sadly they don't tell people what they do by now.

  • @MRxr400
    @MRxr400 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    the thing about the mesa was the mids grunt and i recon it would sit better in the mix, with something to tighten the bottom end. i'm of the opinion that it's easier to take something out of a sound than to add something thats not naturally there. to me the evh was scooped and tight but lacked personality.

  • @Darth.Shredder
    @Darth.Shredder ปีที่แล้ว +1

    IMO the Mesa has plenty of natural low end that really wouldn't benefit from a resonance control, so I don't consider that a negative. The EVH benefits from it because it's a little thinner by design. With a boost, it's the opposite... the Mesa benefits more from a boost and the EVH has so much gain on tap that it doesn't need any help other than maybe to tighten it up a bit. Both are crushing but I lean towards the Mesa (own both as well as other Mesas and EVH's).

  • @TheSoulflytriber
    @TheSoulflytriber ปีที่แล้ว +1

    EVH 5150 III 100w el34 & 100w stealth have a secret function. Blue gain pot effects a gain structure of red channel. Try change blue gain while you are in red channel. When pot is higher it cuts the bass and gain is stronger. When pot is lower bass are boosted and gain reduced. For almost same gain structure as 50w version or original 100w you must set blue channel gain pot on 3,5.

    Having an EVH5150III 50 Stealth and a Mesa Dual Rectifier, I can't choose between those guys ! They are extremely complementary for all type of Metal stuff, even if the Mesa is more versatile. But the precision and the brutality of the EVH fits perfectly with the darker and wilder side of the Mesa... Last but not least, as Ola said, the EVH is much easier to dial with to get a very good sound while the Mesa requires a little work...

      @Sperzel ปีที่แล้ว

      I’m not Ola, sorry, but yes. Removing the pots does increase the output a little, you’ll also get more high end. You can install a blower switch on a push pull or toggle switch to bypass everything and just go straight to the output jack.

    Both amps are completely viable, you'd do well to have both in your studio, but coming from someone who doesn't have any amps yet, I'd probably buy an amp from the 5150 line, just because of the sheer versatility in them. That and at least 70% of my favorite tones were made with some variation of that amp.

    I’ve got a badlander and paired it with the mudkiller and wow amazing combo

    Ola, I'd love to see how YOU dial in a SLO100 with or without maybe a TS808. RESPONG!

    I feel like the Badlander sounds better when sitting and playing alone, but would be muddy in a mix unless certain low-end frequencies are carved out. The EVH doesn't sound quite as good by itself, but the tighter low end would probably work quite well in a mix with a bass present.

    That EVH just BARKS, so much more girth and brutality!

    I prefer the Badlander... more note and tone, the 5150 III has too much pick/string attack for my liking.

    Imo the 5150 is a bit to saturated for rhythms, but I think it would sound great for leads. The rectifier is the kinda tone I think of when I think a chugging rhythm tone

    I stopped by a guitar center near my brother's house a few weeks ago, and they had both a Badlander and a 5150 Iconic. They rarely have any tube amps beyond the standard fender stuff. Anyway, the Badlander had like no gain. I was confused, I thought the whole point of the Badlander was that it was a Dual Rec that didn't need a boost. I ended liking the Iconic quite a bit more.

    Ok that's what we need next time: Guttural amps, Badlander vs Savage 120

    I think I like the mesa one more it just has a lot more of a crunch to it and the evh has to much of that metallic clank in the chug for me.

    Cool new series! Both sounded great. I could see/hear both together in a band setting.

    Is it possible that the talk mice was not muted while playing or a norther second room mic was active? The Amp tones are both sounding a bit like there is a Flanger included to my ears.
    But nice new segment by the way!

    Hi Ola! I'd like to know how you make your awesome musical intros. Which vst's are you using and how do you mix them? Please Respong!
