    EVH 5150 III 50W 6L6 vs EL34!

    I now have both the EVH 5150 III 50W 6L6 and the EL34 so it made a lot of sense for me to make a comparison of both! While I was working on the comparison however, the new 6L6 amp broke down and I had to get a replacement from Thomann. Luckily they sorted it out very quickly and I had my new...

    New Cab - Harley Benton G212 Vintage Vertical

    I posted some pictures in the rig thread but I figured I'd make a little review also. I just joined my first band (yay!) and I've been hunting for a new cab to replace my 1x12 EVH cab. I saw this mint Harley Benton Vertical 2x12 for $150 off of Craigslist and snagged it immediately from a local...

    EVH 5150 III 50W EL34 in-depth!

    Hey all! A year or two ago I got this EVH 5150 III 50W EL34. Before I chose to get the EL34 version I also checked out the 6L6 version and I preferred how the EL34 sounded in a full mix. To me that's the most important thing so that's why I decided on getting this one. The 6L6 seems really...

    EVH LBX vs EVH 5150III 50W EL34

    I'm back with another comparison. This one is all about the EVH lbx vs the 5150III 50W EL34. The LBX is quite small with it's EL84 15W power amp but it sounds absolutely HUGE! The 5150 III 50W EL34 is quite a bit bigger and heavier but does it also sound bigger? Both sound great imho and just as...

    EVH 5150 III EL34 50w = HELL YES!

    I got my EVH a while ago but I've been so busy that I haven't had time yet to do some proper 80s hair metal with it, because it's fun! ;) Tried it out for a new song idea and it was as if the stars aligned! There is just something really special about this amp. Big but focused bottom end with a...

    NAD! EVH 5150 III 50W EL34 (clips inside)

    Hey guys! I got a new amp! It's an EVH 5150III 50W EL34 and I also got the matching cab. This amp sounds beastly, really loving how organic and 'barky' it sounds while retaining good clarity and tight punch. It's pretty loud too. I'm currently running it through my Fractal Audio LB-2 load box...

    Marshall Origin series

    Sup guys, The GAS building up inside me for the 50w head. They're made in Taiwan so that's what's keeping the price point so low, and really my only concern. Perhaps i'll wait for reviews to come out but from what [demos] i've heard so far they really seem to nail the plexi tone for super...

    Using VST preamps with real EL34s and real cab?

    Hi guys, i'm back! Having experimented with reamping a lot, I came to a realisation recently. I don't have an Axe Fx, but I do like the idea of having several different tube pres and FX, but the tone of a real tube amp and cab is just too good not to use. Since i've got a soundproof live...

    What preamp, power tubes do I use for metal tone in my Peavey Triple XXX head?

    What are some of the best tubes to have a metal tone? I like a tone similar to a 5150, something with balls and great lows clearer mids for my basson b412 cab's "ripping" sound. I play heavy tech metal with a Peavey Triple XXX head, Agile 8 string, Ibanez tubescreamer ts9dx, Boss Ns2 noise...
