I sent them an email asking about a few details since I want to order a Crusher FT 7, after hearing good things about them. That was 3-4 weeks ago and still no answer from them, which does not impress me that much. :nono:
What?! On a Prestige RGD? 2127FX or Z? :eek: Oh, sorry didn't see that it wasn't a Prestige, since that sounded really weird. It still sucks of course. :(
While I actually haven't played or even seen a Carvin IRL (I don't even think we have a proper dealer for them here, but it would be nice to try one though) I can only speak for the RGD2127FX, which I own myself. When it comes to playability and build quality, it's hard to imagine that a Carvin...
I haven't tried the 7421, but I'm sure it's a decent guitar if you'll go for that one. On the other hand I have to state that my 2127FX is an amazing guitar, very well built and the playability is just top notch. Though I swapped the pickups the same day I bought it, for a calibrated set of BKP...
I just bought new monitors and decided between Yamaha HS8 (which are really nice) but went for ADAM F7, since they had better bottom end and also mid/high end clarity at lower volume than the HS8 (I have a home studio in my appartment and can't crank the volume at night and I thought the HS8's...
I'd suggest an Ibanez RGD2127FX. New it's maybe the double of your $800, since it's a Prestige model, but maybe you could find a used one for a good price? Or maybe the cheaper version, the RGD7421 which should be within your budget. Both would need a change of pickups, but that's something that...
Building a new PC for music production in a couple of weeks, then I guess buying a UAD-2 DUO or QUAD after that for mentioned computer and hopefully in a couple of months order a RAN Crusher FT sevenstring. And if I could buy time and something that got rid of distractions, that would also be...
That was one of the reasons also for me deciding on the F7's and not the HS8's, forgot to mention that. I've had monitors before with the port back towards the wall and it didn't really work that well for me, it might be different for others though.
I just bought new monitors and I was choosing between Yamaha HS8 and ADAM F7. The Yamaha ones are really good, but the ADAM F7's won for me in the way they reproduce both low end and clarity at a very low volume, so for me they're even better. For getting any real low end from the Yamaha's I...
