So I just picked up my framus. Sounds effing awesome best tone I've ever heard . Boosting it with a Maxon od808 and running it through a tele with bare knuckles and a emperor cab it's biased to run e34l in stead of el34 I was wanting kt77 in it but the tubes in it sound good any suggestions
I do love my 6505 I'm runnin it through an emperor 6x12 with a tele with bareknuckle aftermaths and a Maxon od 808, however the cobra clips I've heard sound absolutely nasty. They sound just so beefy mean and full. I have heard they record great but not so much live. I may get it and see if I...
I never said Engls where dry I said to my ears a cobra sounds dry kinda like. 6505 thick lots of gain, but no actually I wouldn't even be trading my 6505 for it. My Mesa oversized rec cab and my Taylor acoustic for it
I'm not a huge fan of Engls they sound to 3d for my liking I like a dry sound and I feel the framus has it. I would obviously test it out exstensively before I traded
So I have an opportunity to trade for a Framus cobra. Lightly used with the blackface mod, I'm decently okay with the 6505 boosted with Maxon od808 but I hear the cobras are a very nice amp to have . Any pros cons I may be missing out on?
Just bought a bkp blackhawk. Have to say being a passive emg like pup it definately nails that , however I much prefer the aftermath to it. The aftermath has a mich tighter low end and a bit more bass response . The blackhawk nails lead solo tone. Great for standard metal just not for me.
Aftermaths are supposed to be the best pickup to detune tho I have had three so far in mahogany neck thru guitars and one in a Bolt on maple neck, there my favorite pups over any other bkps, seem to have that tight low end for death metal, hardcore, or metalcore. Sounds like u have the right...
Well for emgs a set is around 200 and a set of bkp are 280 without the cool covers. Which for the extra 80 i would never settle for emgsI swapped out my emgs for a bare knuckle aftermath and it blew the emgs away. as well as having sd blackouts. And I think a lot of USA people buy them cause...
I'd say save some extra dough and go bkp route. I've had three bkp after math Bridge pickups, and put either a dimarzio liquifire in the neck or a seymour jazz. The bkp is one of the tightest sounding pups I've heard but has a lot of Lowend bass also. With a relatively medium output. Blows away...
Well I hVe yet to put it on a scale , and haven't looked up specs but orange and Mesa cabs have v30s in them they weigh lIke 3 pounds more each so honestly at 120 I think is a fair estimate not really much worse than moving an oversized rec around. It's just bulkier .
i actually just picked up a emperor 6x12 with wgs reaper and wgs green beret. this thing is the tightest cab ive played. it really suprised me when i first played it
It weighs I think like 120 pretty heavy but has some nice wheels, I'll post some pics shortly. I was hesitant to get into it for the weight but after I heard it I quickly ignored any previous worries. Well worth it. Already convinced my other guitarist to Get one
