  • BC rich owes there fame completley to a man by the name of "Neil Moser" he is the one that came up w. all the famous shapes but also made them comfy. My only gripe w. BC rich is that most of there guitars are too damn pointy in places where they need to rest! like the Mockingbird has that rounded point right in your chest! how ergonomical is that?

  • @OdeToBlood24 fame owed to garcia also lets not forget

  • FUCK BC RICH!!!!! thumbs up if you agree

  • @mopheadthe3rd rock!

    

  • @1976Stratomaster thumbs down to you sir.............probably a young kid that doesnt know shit with your junk ass ltd trying to play death metal right?

  • Whoa, that octave pedal you have there sounds pretty sweet. What is that, a Digitech?

  • @murfguitar2000 yea, wammy II

  • was that straight amp?

  • @DB73093 yea, just digitech wammy going through the fx loop

  • breakdance metal

  • Whats 'custom' about a production model guitar lol? I dont think people have a choice in the matter unless they build their own guitar or have lots of cash to get a 'custom' guitar built.

  • absolutely.right a guitar in the 650 dollar range is just as quality as some 2000 guitars.

    esp ec les pauls have emg 81s and are better sounding the some gibsons.

    the damien schecter is 450 with emg passive h4 pickups and has a licensed floyd rose tremolo and a custom neck inlay.

    think twice before you spend 1000s on equipment

  • i personally took ltd ec 500 over a gibson lp studio, i had money for both, ltd>gibson

  • @wariomt studio sucks

  • You pay for what you get unless its name brand such as gibson... Custom built guitars from Ken Lawrence is the only way to go for me. Licensed is not a real floyd rose.

  • @ibanez860

    i agree..its not alllwayyys about whos got what. If you know how to use your eq then you can get a great sound.

  • it is tuned, just not to e standard.

  • There's some pretty rough notes in there, 0:39 for example, that lead me to believe otherwise.

  • old strings have a mind of their own

  • What pedal does he push while lead Schuldiner like lick?

  • harmonizer function of the Digitech Whammy

  • you are great!! only a few guys are able to recognise schuldiner's licks& tone!! when this dude engaged the whammy through the krankenstein it was defenitely chuck's style!!

  • lol 1:31

  • For folks looking for a reasonable guitar that is really good take a look at some mid level Ibanez guitars.  Good stuff.

  • agreed. I play a ibanez RG 350-EX. sick guitar, and add some EMG's and an original floyd, and your playing a guitar the quality of most high end $3000 guitars. once i buy myself a krankenstein, ill be in guitar heaven :)

  • $3k guitars my ass. Get rid of that piece of log, my advice.

  • @SpiralDivinity ah, you don't believe that BC Rich makes high end guitars? then you mustn't know the company. Sure they have their import line, but they also have probably the best custom shop in North America

  • @DeadLeopardSikCougar hey this guy knows some shit about bc.......they are due credit thanx man!

  • killer low end

  • man i want that amp, mainly because dimes amp, but i love the sound, lots of gain and its sharp crunchy kerry kingish

  • yeah bc rich's suck.

  • dude, thats a usa bich w/ dimarzio x2n, sounds real good live, very dynamic and responsive

  • dont worry this guys an asshole

  • the tone sucks dude

    get a better guitar bc rich sucks.

  • tell that to chuck schuldiner , he used a b.c rich for years and if your saying he had bad tone your fuckin nuts

  • well bc rich's tone gets decent around 2-3000 bucks anythingbelow that sucks

  • its not great i will admitt but if you model your amp tone around it you can get some sick tone out of the cheapist warlock or mockingbird around man , just takes time to dial it in

  • heres my take on expensive guitars, im bieng totally honest for guys starting out and trying to figure out what to buy. around 600 bucks for a new guitar in my opinion will get you as nice a guitar sound wise as a 2000 dollar guitar. im sure the manufacturers dont want you to think that but thats the honest to gods truth. get a guitar with a good neck and put the rest of your money in amps! you can always change pickups for a different sound as well

  • I have usa gibson les pauls, gibson 67 flying v, fender usa strat, custom shop esp, kirk hammet esp, old school esp strat, jacksons,charvels, ibanez, bc rich etc and a 150 dollar fender squire made in japan and it sounds fine. If a guitar has shit action, stay away. other than that if it sounds good to you thats all that matters. james hetfields original white gibson flying v he used through like master of puppets is a japanese copy, whats that tell you?

  • i get a kick out of the self proclaimed tone experts on youtube. i buy expensive shit cause i am a collector/ gear junkie, but truth be told I have just as much fun through my marshall valvestate head($150?) as through my kranks, mesa-boogies, marshall tubes hughes and k's etc.

  • Agreed. My $600 LTD sounds just as good as my $1200 esp.

    Pickups and amps make more of a difference, as long as the guitar is decent to begin with.

  • ok, i know that this a month late, but i actually totally disagree with all of this. my $1250 is built SOOOOO much better than my squier and my $300 ibanez. true, pick-ups will give you the sound, but sound is only half of the equation. when i sit down and play guitar, i want an instrument that feels good in my hands, and i want to know that it's functioning at the highest level possible. a squier and cheap ibanezes will not do that for me.

    sorry about my rant lol

  • well dude its a squier and a 300 dollar ibanez are for starters, i think hes talking bout mid level guitars

  • Yea but practicing on a crappy guitar will make you play way better when you finally get to play a decent guitar.

  • most mid level ltds have active emgs in so there wont be 2 much difference

  • Depends on the bc rich.. I mean even John Petrucci Used Bc Rich for a while before he got his signature ibanez.

  • Well that's like,...uh, your opinion, man.

  • yeah whats that effect at 1:40, kinda sounds like a chuck schuldiner solo sound

  • Look it up.

    It's the Digitech Reverb Wah thing.

    It's red and $200.

    You can't miss it.

    Tom Morello from Rage uses it.

  • Dime used it at one point too.

  • i was talking about the digitech whammy. its the big red block like pedal lol. but dime was always with randall solid state amps. until about november 2004, when he hooked up with Krank.

  • What?! Chuck Schuldiner died before damageplan was even formed. That was Dimebag Darrell that was in Damageplan. He switch form Randall to Krank and Washburn to Dean.

    Chuck Schuldiner was the genius behind Death and Control Denied.

    Get your facts straight.

  • Well actually he started on Dean, then went to Washburn, the back To Dean.

  • Yeah because dean went out of business for a while there. Washburn actually owns Randall...so thats why artists often use both brands together

  • I would guess thats how Dime got into them. An endorsement from one probably means an endorsement from another.

  • No, Randall was his first amp, 20 years before Dime ever touched a Washburn...

  • i meant the other way around. As in getting turned onto Washburn by Randall

  • @MireWolf29 dime used dean's before using Washburn just not endorsing them. just sayin k. and i think that krank's are shit they sound why to thin for a tube amp. there distortion is so crunchy and not smooth when needed. but thats my opinion it might differ for u .

  • Digitech whammy, the recognisable red pedal

  • Btw what's that effect in 1:40 on this vid?

  • It's an octave

  • Its a whammy pedal set to a 5th down and then I sweep the pedal to a 4th down.

  • did anyone know do I can get the same effect like on this vid in 1:40 form g-major??thx

  • thats a krankenstein not a rev

  • yeahh it is haha

  • hahah i love KRANK

    ive got a krankenstein+

    with a dimebag cab (no pedals obv)

    and a razorback that amp is fucking awesome and CANNOT be beaten =]

  • my peavey 6505 beat your Krank :D

  • I didn't realize we where in competition. Are you starving for attention and want everyone to know you have a Peavey, well congradulations dildo.

  • dude i didnt mean you badass, I mean XxshadowragexX....

  • Make a vid of you Krankenstein. I want to hear it!

  • you're a dork.

  • Nice galloping in the middle.

  • I've had a Mesa TripleRec, don't see how it could be beat...but the Krank Krankenstein I might look into....I hear its like a hot rodded version of this one, because dimebag needed shitons of gain.

  • I didnt like the tri rec. The sound lacked warmth

  • im lookin in to kranks but thing is like their isnt any locally around so id half to go out n find one wherever i could or maybe order one off a website....based offa this video i think it sounds good but is there anything about kranks that any of u see as flaws or anything u gotta offer as advice why to or why not to get a krank?

  • I bought my Krank from Apple Music in Portland, OR. Maybe you can order one if you contact them. As far as flaws, I don't have any complaints with the Krank, if you are looking for a good metal tone I would recommend it, plus the clean channel sounds really good, too. I've never played a Revolution series, but they're supposedly similar to the Krankenstien.

  • Finally some body that puts balls into the music rather then the fag shit most of the other people on youtube play when displaying the Krank. Nice pantera tone there.

  • if someone thinks that this brutal, clear and articulate sound is muddy, blunty or whatever, then his a MAJOR DEAF!!!!

  • Good review for this amp dude, shitty camera.

  • DUDE! this is awesome!!!!! i just got a couple of revolution one stacks. was trying 2 decide between the krankenstein and the rev1 but i prefer that kind of sound. you heard doomsday machine by arch enemy or allegance by firewind? they both used rev 1 on those albums. that's just my kind of sound. lol. as 4 all the bad comments, people have to find something better to do! and yes, WWJD! amen! :P lol. keep it up dude.

  • Thanx dude. Yea I love the sound of the Krankenstein. I was playing on a piece of shit Crate for a long time and I finally decided to just go put a nice amp on layaway. I've figured if it was custom made for Dimebag then there couldn't be anything wrong with it.

  • I get to play on these every day, yet i still cant stop watching clips of these. I wish someone would show off the versatility of these amps, theres so much more that these can do. I've said it before the blues tones on these are incredible once you dial in the right settings.

  • The user's manual has some pretty good recommended settings for brown sound and ac/dc type sound, but I'm partial to the scooped sound. The clean sounds really nice too.

  • Well the cab is the krankenstein one

    And the light looks green

    Am i too assume its a krankenstein

  • a lot of guys just say what the others say without being really able to make a difference! i mean, mesaboogie sound used to be cool but now rivera, engl, krank, bogner,vht are way way better than mesa or marshall, i can t believe that some"metal fans" here bash the krankenstein sound, come on guys! ths high gain is fuckin precise, tight, bassy...! just imagine brian hoffman from deicide or vital remains dave suzuki plying on this amp! it can t be better than this!

  • Get a Krank I had a Mesa dual rec for about 3 years never was happy with the sound. I ended up buying a Soldano Decatone now that amp is the end all and be all. However I have played a Krank and they sound way better than boogie.

  • what are the main differences in sound between a krank and a mesa?

  • watch this guy's video with the mesa and you'll hear the difference

  • i currently own a triple rec myself. what do you prefer? krank rev, krankenstein or the mesa's triple rec? (thinking about buying a krank)

  • krank or mesa boogie amps sound great with vader cabinets.

  • i need to get that or a mesa boogie

  • sounds like the lone ranger haha jk nice sound

  • Yeah, its a good riff to play while you ride on your war-horse. Reminds me of 'Nam.

  • Have you checked out the same head with the Mesa boogie 4x12?

    I would like to know what differences you notice between both cabinets.

    thank you man, your playing is really heavy!

  • When I first got the head I was playing thru my old Univox cabinet, and it sounded pretty good. The Mesa stuff is my brothers, so I haven't tried his cab, but I'll check it out and see how it sounds.

  • thank you man!

    dont forget to tell me about it ;)

  • I tried it out. It sounds pretty good, honestly I really couldn't tell the difference. The Krank cab is 16 ohm and the Mesa is 8 ohm, but they sound pretty similar. My bro thinks my amp has slightly more bass response.

  • but both cabs can be 4/8/16 ohms, isnt it?

    thanks, i think krank cabinet is better for krank heads ;)

  • (KRANK HAS MORE BASS)

  • ...i wanna krank revolution and triple rec..and maybe an engl.

  • SORRY THAT COMMENT UNDER IS MENT FOR iancb88.

  • foshizzle

  • Sew a canadian flag on my backpack??? I'm pretty sure you got your American flag on your fuckin' 4x4 and in front of your house bastard! Haha I wanna see more vids like that in your fuckin' garage! Show us how bad you are! Come on!

  • Show me anything toolbox. Im waiting... Ill give you all of tonight to borrow someones camcorder and use your commodore 64 to put it on youtube. Make me laugh motherfucker, put up or shut up. Trash talk me all of tonight and tommorow Ill tear you a new asshole.

  • rebel flags go on 4x4's, what kind of vehicle do you drive?

  • You're pathetic "metalhead" lolllll "I'm an American, I'm the best and the only thing I can say to defend myself is blasting Canada" loll Who cares I'm from Canada. USA got his bad artists too lol. The list is even longer IMO lol... "under my umbrella hey hey hey under my umbrella" "I've got the magic stick"....lol look at your own shit before saying that our artists suck!

  • sorry, i dont listen to hip hop?

  • ...and I don't fucking need a Krank Rev. or a Recto to get a decent sound. A 5150 and a Basson 4x12 is enough. Stop trying to prove that the gear makes the guitarist... You're just a SHOWOFF.

  • Three years ago you were singing along to every track on the barenakedladies album and got excited whenever anyone mentioned Canada on real TV. Now I see all this "shite" talking was only a ruse so that you could mention that you have a 5150 and a 4x12. Your my bitch, bark doggie

  • OFFICIAL CANADIAN FORMAT FOR SHIT TALKING 1. Mention laughing at least six times. Itll makem think yer laughing. 2. Mention that you are Canadian six more times and make sure they understand that you think homo milk is ok. 3. Accuse them of having no talent even though you have no videos of yourself. 4. eventually mention the sweet herb in BC 5. Sew a canadian flag on your backpack

  • Hahaa dont get butt hurt cus you see somone better than you on youtube.i bet ur one of those guys who hear about somone playing guitar and start saying oh i can take him out,or oh that easy i can play that.lmao clean the blood from ur ass hole,you say you dont need a krank but we all know you cant get a krank so stop crying about him being better than ur poser ass...dont think of a comeback cus the only comeback you have is the CUM on ur back from yo bitch ass daddy FAG...peace mutha FUCKA !

  • Amen bro!!!

  • We're just playing to have fun you little jerk off, I not here to be a fuckin' half-assed Yngvie Malmsteen for your entertainment.

  • You sound like you're insecure with your equipment. Like you're trying to prove that his isn't better. To sum it up, you're gay.

  • technically I wasnt' gay till you sucked me off.

  • Technically, you just admitted that you are in fact, gay. I win.

  • Technically, you just admitted you suck dick. So go back to suckin cocks girlyboy.

  • hahahaha

  • Technincally, get cancer.

  • I don't know about cancer, but I'm sure I would get AIDS if I punched you in the face and got your fag blood all over me.

  • I'd like to see you punch in the face through Youtube. Maybe send a video of your fist. Anyway, the irony of this arguement is I wasn't even talking to you in the first place. I was talking to the person who told the guy he didn't "deserve" the equipment. But while I'm at it....you're still gay.

  • If I knew you where talking about the other guy I wouldn't have gotten pissed off. You wanna hug it out, bitch?

  • Hug it out? You know kidding about you being gay, right? I mean whatever, its your life, I don't judge.....Nancy.

  • I miss your blow jobs, Susie.

  • hahaha^^

  • what is the problem with his playing? i thought it was pretty damn good, people don't buy gear because of how good they are or arent, they buy it for a sound... there are plenty of other players even pro that you could say 'dont deserve the gear' but they have it, too fucking bad, the only people who say shit like that is the one's who wish they could have, but don't have...

  • kewl

  • You don't diserve this amp lol. I don't mind if you get pissed off and say to me that I'm gay or whatever, you just don't diserve this amp! And like another guy said, I hope you don't own the Recto HS too, because I'm just gonna laugh more!

  • ok Im back from vacation and have time to make fun of you. Isn't it true that Canadian radio stations must play Canadian artists a certain percentage of the time? ( Brian Adams, Nickelback, Celine Dion...) It is true you cant deny it!! The only thing decent to come out of Canuckida is three inches of blood. you are just another loser who lives with his parents that are too poor to buy their retarded son a camcorder( or decent guitar gear) so he can post some stupid video.

  • The "little Canadian" is reading your comment and is just laughing even more. The "little Canadian" is still laughing at your playing, and will laugh each time he'll be watching it. Stop yelling at everybody and go get some practice lol. You're just another RETARD that makes Americans look like dumbass even if most of 'em are OK. There are so much better bands than 3 Inches Of Blood. It's only a fuckin' commercial metal band signed on Roadrunner

  • well fuck you iancb88

    KsE is on roadrunner too

    and theyd kick ur canuck ass back to vancouver

  • Deserve it or not, I put forth the time at my shitty job to buy a nice amp that I fuckin wanted. Don't player hate on people who earned what they have, just because your mommy and daddy won't buy your spoiled brat ass a 3,000 dollar amp, get a fuckin job, LOL, you cocksucker.

  • You are a classless douche.  Grow up.

  • i hope you don't own both those... your skill doesn't match the equipment

  • what you want some too frenchie?? skiing is for fags, i went to your website and you had so much cum in your mouth it looked like your teeth were melting

  • sorry but this is the worst review of this amazing amp i witnesed in my life

  • its not a review, reviews generally have "review" in the title, and pastors are normally cocksuckers. if you dont like this video, and you are a pastor, you must like cock. shame on you sinner, WWJD???-we won jesus died!

  • hahah quality comment, fat riffs. Hey man Im thinkin about gettin rev jr head to run through my engl 212 cabinet - whatcha think about that? what does the sweep function do?

  • The sweep basically tweeks the tone to make it real muddy or really nasal. I keep it between 1.5 and 3 for a Dimebag kind of tone.

  • nice!!

  • good amp

    bad settings

    bad playing

    bad video

  • Whats up with the shirtless guy on your page. Is that what you play the lead skinflute on?

  • lol

  • i d go with krankenstein or vht pittbull ultra lead

  • id go with the mesa

  • i played a revolution, and a krankenstien i thought they were fucking top notch. *personal opinion* i found no mud, it just ripped my fuckin face off. :)

  • so why this krankenstein doesn t sound muddy as u claim!

  • why do everybody hate krank?

    I think it sounds great!

  • Because they are muddy as hell.

    Although i have heard a few sounds that sound REALLY good, but i think they have been modified.

  • lol.. have you tried it for yourself?

    i think it's the exact opposite from the word "muddy", for me it has a super-super defined gain, super fine for drop-tuned metal rhytms, but at the same time, a bit hard to dial in sweet juicy solo markIVish tone on this thing.. that's y many many people hate krank.. but i think with the right setting and -perhaps- an EQ pedal you could get that juicy solo tone out of a krank..

  • yeah i have no idea what you said in the beginning.

    where the hell did u get the money for a bich and a krankenstein AND a mesa?

  • send me 100 dollars and I will tell you how.

  • I put stuff on layaway. It took me about seven months to pay it off.

  • The title says Krank Revolution but the green light on the head makes it look like a Krankenstein.

  • oops, it is a krankenstein, thats funny, this video has been up for a while and I never noticed that

  • im still shoked!! when i heard krank on this video iwas fuckin shoked!! it s like if a hammer smashed my face!i never thought that a simple amp head can achieve this mighty sound!! i was planning for a rack setup but i think this krank is the way to go!!

  • of course man, this is a boutique amp,i saw many guys with diezels and engls and the sound was bad(amateur videos), but i know very very well that these amps are the cream of te high end industry just like this krankenstein so i can t bash them just cause the sound on the video isn't ok

  • the sound is fucking tight, i think this amp fits perfectly morbid angel and krisiun style.

  • thanx dude, good to know not everyones a playa hater.

  • poor krank

  • GAY

  • I like how all these 14 year old dorks try to act all badass online and give themselves hardcore names like, "Hangfromthehalo" or "Razornuts" or whatever the fuck, and they all have a bunch of Slayer videos on their page like they're some kind of O.G. Slayer fan, but fact is these dildos were suckin' on mom's tit while their big brother was listening to New Kids on the Block while Slayer was in their hayday. You are the ones who are the ball-lickers!!

  • Is that a harmonizer?

  • whammy plus

  • i like it but its too gainy. everything seems so meshed together. except for that end solo part.

  • Boring as fuck...

  • I went to razorred17 site and he has a couple cool metal videos ( not him playing anything of course), and then at the bottom of the page he is soliciting some homo guy working out trying to get a blow job.

  • laugh at the mesa

  • I heard about that spell. If you perform the proper incantation while felching you can turn someone's butthole into a gateway to hell.
