Like Brent said, they're with their former endorsers now.
And seriously, a 24.75 inch scale on a 7-string? No thanks.

And thanks for the advice on that.

class 5 needs to be cranked to get distorted, and it's more of a rock distortion I believe.

350 Watts? For what, so it doesn't crackle at high volumes?

Is that too small for you? Is it, kid?

Same. They seem to be the all-around metal work-horse amp. Great crunchy rhythm tones. I'm probably gonna sell my ada mp1 (never use it) and hybrid power amp to get one.

I dunno, It wasn't really a factor when i bought it, it was in the same price class as the one i was going for, but it was sold out so i got this one instead

Well I've also been checking out the Blackheart Handsome Devil, looks pretty good.

Corey's guitar looks just like the demmelition with one extra set of cutaways... -.-

[children of COB]

I hate Trivium, but that guitar looks damn amazing! And cutaways look 1000000000000 times better than Phil Demel's.

Got one Channel also.
Maybe I got you wrong, but if your planning on buy on of those 'new trend' small amps with little watt but cool tubes for metal, forget it. IMO they're not bad for those cranked clean sounds and you need in blues or the sound that all those Indie band got, but for High Gain sounds you should get some Transistor amp for the same price.
tube amps are awesome but especially the Handsome Devil (which is said to have a little more head room than other 15 watt all tube amps) is a amp for nice clean sounds, but for High Gain sounds you will need some good pedal, too
if you're planning on using it with a pedal, its a good choice.

I am selling my gp-1000. it is an 88 model, made after the marshall and i am putting it here before ebay because i know there is a lot of people searching for that sound. i loved this preamp, i have to let go of it because i recently bought an engl se head and im up to my neck in debt. it is in great condition, i even sent it to lee a few weeks ago so he could give it a small check up and repair if needed. but i am very sad to let this go, but anyways if you guys want pics just message me to andresmorare@gmail.com, also looking for about 450-500 dollars.

And dont tell me its just cranked or he doesnt use a different channel or even a pedal.

[the phenom]

Well, It's not the HD-5 you were talking about. It's a 2 channel amp.

Sounds like it has a really clear tone too!

You Tube

Shit cameras or shit micing on all of em though.

EDIT: I think that's something the kid could look into though. the combo is about 380€ or so. Don't know about the head. Seems like it can do metal pretty good and be versatile at the same time.

[snowy]

Yeah I was talking about the Blachheart amp the kid mentioned.
Not some other amp

[the phenom]

The Blackstar suits him better.

[snowy]

yep.
as
it
sounds
like
a
kid
crying

[the phenom]

Well, I would not buy one.

[TheKid]

wat

[Lowberg]

Speaking of mini amps, I've heard that the Krank Rev Jr. head sounds very awesome. More expensive then the blackstars mentioned above but hey I guess you get what you pay for lol

[Lowberg]

Hey guys I just found a video of a whole Sinergy show (like an hour long) in Moscow 2002 on my old external hard drive. I know Mitch has uploaded a song or two from it on youtube, but I haven't seen any of the rest of it up there.

Its definitely of bootleg quality but its not bad, and Macro from Nightwish is playing bass with them for this show

Would this be something anybody would be interested in me putting up there?, if there's no interest here i wont bother
