Krankenstein amp, 7 string guitar metal tone

[calatan0]

its not the amp that sounds like shit its the recording device he's using im guilty of this too

[TheBenlag]

Do you think the Junior version (20 watts) would get the same tone but at much lower volumes? Thanks, Awesome amp!

[hexydenise]

Krank rulz awsome set up but a little to big for home lol



[truedimebagdarrell]

I don't want to live anymore...

[fender7682]

i remember when i thought a tone like that sounded good

[givemeajackson]

@fender7682 hahaha, i was thinking exactly the same thing xD line sucks spider, gain 10, bass 10, mid 0, treble 10, and then thinking that i had the best tone ever xD well, that changed quite a bit since then.

[fender7682]

@givemeajackson oh the days of playing metallica through a shitty amp with boss metal zone... my tone used to revolve around nothing but getting as much bassy punch while palm muting as humanly possible

[xxcannibalxchristian]

i hate 7 strings.

[LEMONS4R3PRETTYGOOD]

@xxcannibalxchristian troll in the dungeon

[xxcannibalxchristian]

@LEMONS4R3PRETTYGOOD not really. i like 6s over 7. 7s are good forB and lower. still dont like them.

[ktulhu2011]

AHAHAHAH! gameboy speakers?

[gtrraider84]

This is the shittiest amp demo I have ever heard... you should just delete it... my phone can make a better distortion than this amp according to your vid.

[SkYjAcKeR666]

sounds like a transistor radio



[jacksoncorpsepaint]

this EQ setting is perfect for trve n0rvegian raw black metal

[orbithesun1]

Sounds like you have some bad tubes or an output transformer. You should have it check out by a amp tech.

[Giuseppe79]

che merda..

[durarail]

F*ck ! THis simply doesnt do justice to this amp . One of the best amps out there IMO ! this clip sounds worse than my marshall 10 watt !

[nephilymbass1]

@durarail yeah for real and a 7 string. what a seven string banjo???

[durarail]

@nephilymbass1 LOL !

[munchy040]

this amp is for the tip

[bulletfmvrocks101]

this amp kick so much ass it just sounds bad becuase the volume is low its made to be kranked no pun intended ts made for like shows

[dewalwalers]

the amp sounds terrible..its like using earplug speakers .its sounds like a frying pan with frying fish.... try using a ZOOM H4N...

[fartmaster805]

would the krankenstien head go good with a vader cab??

[spyicu]

@fartmaster805 Probably, but i still would say it would go best with a Krankenstein cab. V30's are good though

[guitarsbunch347]

@prog2djent fuck celestion? ummm vintage 30s are celestions dumbass

[cheepo888]

the krankenstein sounds like a beast but you have to turn it up though, the 20 and 50 jr versions are what should be used when playing in a bedroom

[1230hagen]

either get a better mic, turn up the volume, or move the mic further out into the edge of the speaker cause there's way too much fucking presence in this recording.

[spawnsc]

sounds to electronic and not natural.. is it the head or just the mic on your camera?

[DB73093]

@spawnsc Its the volume being on 0.3

[xizombiex]

im so glad i didnt end up buying this head.

[zilch1823]

Too much treble, not enough bass

[cobraopts7]

@zilch1823 it sound like there is no lows or mids like he put the high nob up all the way to 10

[spyicu]

@DB73093 yeah i will definitely put up a better vid of the krank.. ive just been real busy but i promise you i will post up another just give me some time. i have a mess to sort out right now, sorry people

[DB73093]

Do another vid of this thing krank up .. Master vol at 10 and master1or2 at around 4

[kvltaholic]

Sounds pathetic. Maybe you need to krank it up. Sounds worse than one of those Line 6 digital shits.

[rkoroxx]

Fuckall Tone man :|

Reduce some lo's

Crank up the gain a bit

turn down the mids almost completely...

give a medium hi

There u have it! Beast tone! \Death Metal/

[DB73093]

If i didnt own this amp and didnt know you gotta turn the volume up, I would think this amp is complete shit lol.

[fatsuperfly]

hey its cool man we all get busy so i understand,i was trying top get a point across to thos people who say this is a bad amp.this is actualy a great amp its sounds chages too with the speakers you use also(to those who dont know)

[fatsuperfly]

your krank seems to sounds alot more fizzy than mine.maybe its the camera?but my amp can get a pretty tight tone

[spyicu]

yeah, its way too loud for my camera to handle. Sorry, im working on getting a better quality vid but i've been super busy lately. Im in a huge mess right now so... i'll do my best in getting a better quality vid up

[stangcrazy97]

@spyicu

dude looking at your settings i thought i would give you a bit of advice. set the amps master volume at like 8 or 9. set the gain on the dime channel to say 7 or 8, and then adjust the actual amp volume using the channel volume. and it will take out most of the fizz and totally clear this bad boy up. i own this exact same amp and found that was the best way to get this amp to ROAR, along with getting rid of most of the fizz

[spyicu]

@stangcrazy97 What are you talking about? I already said that im playing this at a super low volume and that my camera cant handle the volume. That's why it's so fizzy, and yes I already know the sweet spot of the amp when I play at loud volumes and it sounds perfect. Thanks anyways

[stangcrazy97]

@spyicu

according to the settings i saw on your video, you dont have a clue what settings sound perfect. i was just trying to give a bit of advice but apparently you are beyond help ... oh well fuk it ...

[spyicu]

@stangcrazy97 haha, i already said thank you but ok. I know how my amp works, I was just messing around with my digital camera, not trying to get a studio sound.

[fartmaster805]

cool thanx

[guitargod250]

@fatsuperfly

It also sounds like maybe it isnt turned up? you really gotta krank this thing up man.

[DB73093]

lol i like how people diss krank when theyve never played them. and yes the volume was super low here, i have to play mine like that sometimes, at night. I two vids of my stein1. I use Gain 8, presence, 6, sweep 4, treble 6, bass 5. i also use a tubescreamer infront

[spyicu]

yeah, ive heard tons of different peaveys and mesas. they all are great amps but ive never owned an amp like krank. you can get alot of gain out of it and still sound loud crisp and clear. i absolutely love the tone. youve never heard a krank unless youve played one with the volume knobs at least turned to 5 or higher

[XXxESPxXX]

KranK amps are the nmost horrifyingly bad amps ive ever heard. if Panasonic made guitar amps I would buy it before a KraNk. fuckinshit

[therethereand]

these actually are the worst amps ever made! they just sound like absolute crap. peavey 6505 is like half the price and way better.

[425V8]

No...the volume on this thing is at like 0.1. I own the krankenstein+, a 5150 and a dual rectifier. Check out some of chrisjd4s channel. You can get good tone out of it...but you have to turn it up

[WizeRetard]

yo dude, is the hex-7 also good for playing solos ? let me know

[HeavyMetalGuitar89]

krank revSST + 7 string with active emgs= insanely loud badass tone

[metalhead2294]

hey nice vid man, i just recently got one of these, what are your settings in this vid?

[spyicu]

gain 6, presence 7, sweep 6, treble 6, bass 6 1/2

[Simen0303]

NIce amp, nice playing!

[spyicu]

Thanks man, you're playing sounds awesome too. You shred like an animal and you're only 16, that's bad ass.

[Simen0303]

Thank you man! But I have so bad sound and video quality, so its sound kinda dirty and unclean, but when I hear it "live" it sound clean, but whatever. Im getting a new camera soon. I`ll subscribe to your channel btw! :D

[spyicu]

Cool, thanks man! Yeah, it's hard to capture what you really sound like. Playing live is way better. Let me know how the new cam works out.

[Simen0303]

Yeah! No problem;)
