    Hagerman VALVE pedal (with 2 demos)

    The VALVE is a ‘keep on’ pedal, and Jim Hagerman classifies it as a boost (upward of 20dB), but it is a tone charmer that has overdrive properties. At $129 USD, the VALVE is one of the best bangs for the buck, as it fattens up a Strat, makes humbuckers growl, and simply adds more life and...

    Views on Synergy. Premium brand?

    Hi guys Looking for some up to date views on the synergy stuff... how does it compare to the premium brands on the market? Mesa, orange, diezel... quality, sounds, reliability.

    ENGL Screamer 50 for Modern Metal?

    Hello! I'm looking for a tight amp that can handle modern metal, drop tunings and that sounds a bit sterile lol. I mean.. I don't like the sound of the 80's thrash metal bands, d'you know what I mean? I hate Slayer's tone for example, even when they played 7 strings and were trying to be modern...

    NAD: The Chimp - BWM 5W Class A valve amp

    Always wanted a cute little valve amp, so I bought this on a whim off gumtree for $180 (possibly may have had something to do with the recent loss (sale) of my old Marshall cab - waiting on an orange 2x12) BWM Amps = Big White Monkey Amps considering I've only heard it...

    New Amp... or new speakers and tubes?

    Fellow Seven-Stringers, I currently have a Peavey Valveking 212...it's okay, but i want something like a Peavey 6505+ or a Mesa Boogie Rectifier. Should I just replace a couple tubes and replace the stock speakers with Celestion V30s? I'm not sure if the tube and speaker swap would give me...

    Need some more info/opinions on the Spider valve stuff

    So i'm thinking about trading my HT20 for a spider valve 2x12. I need a bit more power and the extra speaker. On paper, it sounds great to me Bogner tube amp + pod is how i see it, but i hear so much bashing on the spider valve stuff, i'm wondering if it's at all warranted or just the typical...

    Question about wattage and volume

    I've understood that valve amps with a higher power output will have a bigger headroom for clean tones, but for overdriven tones, it's not good to have a powerful amp at a low volume. Having said that, I'm stuck between getting a Peavey 3120 (120 watt head) and a Marshall JVM205H (50 watt...

    Looking for the best Tube combo Amp

    for $600 or under... i know that eliminates many of the best options but price plays a very big role for me. I've got my eye on a Peavey ValveKing, which is $400. I'd buy the $40 footswitch, and a delay pedal for about $100. The 6150 also interests me, but its $200 more, and idk if its worth...
