Chadd 916 Report post Posted February 7, 2006 Bruin, that is soo phat I can't wait untill I get mine.Just thought I would brag a little bit on here :P but my band just got a gig opening for PROTEST THE HERO if you've ever heard of them you know their sick and I'm sooo pumped I've gotta go rent a stack for a month though so Dan's out. I've been hearing great things about the B-52 AT series amps. At $799 US for a 2x12 all tube combo, it's not priced too badly either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chadd 916 Report post Posted February 7, 2006 are those the stealth ones? with the rectifier modes and such? No, the stealth is a different series. The 100W head is around $699US and the 4x12 is $399. I'm going to stop in and demo one tomorrow. It would be nice to have an amp as functional and versatile as my old Mesa Dual Rectifier for 1/2 the cost.http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/Gui...Amps?sku=481309There are some good reviews on harmonycentral.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jay 1 Report post Posted February 7, 2006 and the winner is...but yeah ,how do gibson les paul studios compare to your standard? If memory serves me correct, the Les Paul Studio is solid mahogany carved top construction with no neck or body binding and cheaper parts. Back in the early 90's they weren't bad guitars for the money but they sound a bit different then a real LP with a carved maple laminated top. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dan_The_Man_16 0 Report post Posted February 9, 2006 thats awesome ,how much is it to rent a stack? I get a great deal because my friend/bandmates dad is best friends with the owner of Long and McQuade so Im only paying $250 for the month, I couldnt tell you how much it would cost to rent it at regular price. For anyone who is interested I rented a Line 6 HD 147 head and a Marshall 4x12 cabinet. Yea there is a PA but it sucks; they better not make me hook up through it, but I guess I gotta do what I gotta do. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Quintin 16 Report post Posted June 2, 2006 Well the only good cymbal I have right now is a Sabian handhammered dark crash that I got with money from christmas. The other crash is a zildjian zbt. The hats are sabian b8pros as well as the splash. The ride is actually good too, its a no logo zildjian k made in Canada. I dont know how familiar you are with drumming but zildjian and sabians owners are brothers. All zildjian cymbals made in canada at the time were k's. When one of the brothers split, he got the zildjian factory in Canada and made Sabian. All the cymbals except for the HH dark crash are from my old used kit. I upgraded the kit in the summer and now Im working on cymbals. You drum? Yeah, I'm looking to buy my first kit too. I'm thinking either a Tama Stagestar or Premier Cobria. Any suggestions? I'm looking to buy it from here (www.rockingrooster.co.uk) and my price range is from £200 to £350 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm looking to buy it from here (www.rockingrooster.co.uk) and my price range is from £200 to £350Don't go for the Stagestar. The rack toms are really small (therefore high pitched) and sound like marching tenors. The bass is also rediculously small and is very quiet. The cymbals that come with it are crap too, IMO.My Stagestar:Fender Jass Bass: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
