5150 III Vs. Splawn Nitro

[krizzleeeqwe]

Thanks bro! The 53 slays!

I really appreciate that you don't just use ass loads of preamp gain in these. This is one of the best clips of the 5153 on YT, regardless of overall sound quality. Nice work. And that amp sounds badass

Awesome

Honestly I think 6550 are better but kt88 sounds really big and has a lot of bottom end.

Hey. I wanna turn my Marshall TSL 100 Head into a Metal Monster . As far as tone goes, im tryin to get like a Framus Cobra meets a Splawn Nitro. Im still debating between power tubes. Should i go with KT88 or 6550?

[destossel]

What is the Mesa loaded with ? My 6505+ sounds great with Black shadows but not so good with SB25s. The reverse is also true to my ears.

I just loaded some WGS Retro 30s in a Mesa 2x12 but have not tried the 6505+ thru it yet. Hell, I have not even tried my Nitro through it yet. Why am on the internet ?

[destossel]

@destossel edit : I have a Nitro also. It sounds not optimal thru the black shadows.

[ou2rfunny]

Nitro sounds better to me. Its clearer,can hear chords and the notes better. Built more for tone compared to the EVH. But I am sure there will a Number 4 model soon.

hey great tone dude, I have a 6505 head and a cheap line 6 cab but I want a new cab so what would u recommend for around 500 dollars?

[krizzleeeqwe]

@casey36 well casey your head is a great head! But for cabs, id go with a Mesa cab. But if you dont, try to get something with v30's in it! They have worked awesome for me!!! But buy it used, i bought my cab for 500$ used but i got a steal on it. Just keep your eyes peeled for something! but dont go with just something that is cheap and convient. sometimes you got to spend some cash for the good stuff!

[hinson5150]

I like the 5150 III better.

[krizzleeeqwe]

@hinson5150 yea they both rule

[krizzleeeqwe]

@hinson5150 yeah i like it alot bro



[JNPMusicman]

The EVH 5150 III Sounds killer!....

[snapascrew]

I noticed you were playing some killswitch riffs, would you like Joel Stroetzel's Nitro settings? I have them :)

[krizzleeeqwe]

@snapascrew actually yes, I'd love them. Can you send them to me?

[krizzleeeqwe]

killin it!

[robarh]

@robarh yea dawgggg

[Megallica]

thx for this great versus, nitro's tone is clearly lower i think it's nice for playing but i dont know for recording.

which one do you prefer ?

[krizzleeeqwe]

@Megallica honestly i just sold my 5150 III if that speaks hahaha. LOVING THE NITRO

[krizzleeeqwe]

@Megallica nitro by far.

[krizzleeeqwe]

@krizzleeeqwe i agree



[asianaxeman]

u have set them up so they sound near identical, has the nitro got 6l6s?

[krizzleeeqwe]

@asianaxeman nope, kt88's

[krizzleeeqwe]
