Hey ola i have a question about your guitar. Thats the RGA8 right? If so i wanted to ask when you changed the pickups in it to the blackouts did you have any problems with the battery? Cuz apparently the stock pickups in that thing run on 2 AA batteries and the blackouts run on a 9V. Was their any issues with the guitar at all when changing the pickups? I need to know cuz im deciding between this and a schecter blackjack atx c-8 as my first 8 string guitar. Great playing as usual dude keep it up
what's the setting of the maxon in your vids? in this vid you use it between guitar and amp, in the other vids you use it in the send return or between guitar and amp?
@fearedse wow i've tried the maxon between my guitar and my amp many times with no result, only farty sound, instead work well in the send return on the volume, i can't get this boosted sound...perhaps the reason it's my new solid state randall rh100, really havy on the right cabinet...anyway i miss valves :(
@mymama12314 It's pretty loud, but I wouldn't use it for rehearsing with a band. In europe they're pretty cheap. Overseas they're not so depending where you live, cheap or expensive. Cheers!
@dimebagdarrellftw only mesa. a recto is twice the price of a fireball 100. a 6505+ is same as the fireball, krank is a bit less than a powerball. mesa is overpriced as hell over here.
@givemeajackson That makes sense I wouldnt know what its like to own a Rectifier because im not really a big fan of mesa gear so I wouldnt say what your missing out on. But I do likes Me a ENGL though.
@dimebagdarrellftw i do like mesas, just not rectifiers. the mkIV and mkV are awesome amps, and from what i've heard from the lonestar it seems to have the most beautiful crunch ever. my dream setup would be engl blackmore (done) for distortion and lonestar for clean and crunch. listen to andy timmons to hear what the lonestar's captable of.
@givemeajackson Yeah he sounds good for the most part he seems to be playing blues. I tried a lonestar combo I think it was but the amp was really clean it might have been another mesa but I swear it was the lonestar if it was they seem to have good clean
Awesome clip!! I have the amp myself and i was wondering how it sounds with an ibanez ts9. Could you give me your opinion? Or maybe make a clip with a 6string and some demo sounds switching from no boost to boost. I would very much appreciate that!
hey ola , have in your mind that there is new amp of Orange called dark terror... If you find it i think it will be ok to make a couple of clips when you have time...
@bornburied yeah... that's what I was thinking... just like the blackstar ht 5. Most of the "overdrive' sound is as far as I know, solid state. But that amp is much cheaper..... On the other hand ... this amp sound WAY better to my ears.
@59Hellfire at the old house down by the mill. A gypsy sells me potions, when I drink them a random amplifier magically appears on top of the highest mountain in Sweden. It's called Kebnekaise. 2 102 meters in elevation.
@fearedse Did you get the girl gypsy? Cause I'm always getting the fat dude and every time I drink the potion I get new software. Then he spins around and turns to dust like the barbarian in Rygar.
Can i repeat with a band and an engl gigmaster 30?

Hey man, just a quick question that none of the other demos answer.
Can the amp be set for a nice clean tone and footswitch to a hi-gain tone (Fade to Black, unforgiven type of thing)?
Reason i ask is the gain level of both channels seems to be linked...........
