New stuff from Randall for 2013 & 2014

[technomancer]

He said there's no EL84s, but we'll find out at NAMM.

Greedy ....er.

Yep just saw his comment

Fortin confirmed that there's two power tubes in this new design, but not which type.

9 pin power tubes means EL84s... something mini this way comes. Only seeing two preamp tubes though there could be a third one under the wires so that rules out a Thrasher mini

Also Fortin said in his comments that the Thordendal amp is a long way off, so I doubt that will be release at winter NAMM.

There is a third preamp tube, from Mike himself.

Some Randall-related question to bump the thread.

I read somewheres that Per Nilsson started using the Randall 667 recently. Any clue if it was used on the recent Scar Symmetry record, because his tone sounds awesome.

All I see is a Dual Rec in this video...

 

[Alcoholocaust]

Ola and Jocke Skog re-amped the guitars on that album with a Randall Satan

From a new Musician's Friend interview with Mike Fortin and Joe (the pirate looking guy from all the NAMM videos).

The HUB: Can you talk about anything currently on the drawing boards?

Joe Delaney: There are things that have ones and zeroes embedded in them that we’ve recently found interesting.

The HUB: It sounds like you might be going down the digital road…

Joe Delaney: Yeah, we’re dancing with digital, but we’re not sure if we’re going to take her home…yet.

On-board loadbox/IR loader... On-board loadbox/IR loader... On-board loadbox/IR loader...

Don't care about digital, just want to see the new Lynch and Nuno amps as Fortin's Marshall'ish stuff is insane

Teasing more pedals.

On a side note, does anyone recognize this head?

Any significance re the EL34s sitting there?

Looks like a head version of the RG-150.

Same control panel... but backwards.

From what I understand, the RG150 (as well as the RG180DX) was the amp that was the transition between the RG-ES and the Century amps. They seem to have a tone closer to the Centuries, which is more 'brutal' than the RG-ES series.

The only RG 150 that I have experience with has a graphic EQ.

You guys that have or tested RD45, did you found it to sound too dark?
When I was listening all these clips and reviews I sad "that's it, I'll go for it.." but when I tested it live in full band situation I found lack of presence and treble generally.
Maybe I'll have to mod it to bring it up. Any experiences?

 

[beerandbeards]

I have the RD45. I don't thinks it's too dark. I posted my settings in a different thread but I like a warm heavy tone. I think the addition with the boost and the Facepunch OD you really have a balanced full ballsy amp.

Keep in mind I haven't played this amp with a band yet.
