    Bogner Uber Ultra - A complex, complicated Monster

    I'm the same way. Great amp but not my thing these days. I still prefer the feel and fatness of my Quickrod and more cinateg organic feel. I don't do the modern High Gain any longer like I used to. I go more rock and hard rock and this amp to me is all modern metal. Killer amp for that. I just...

    Killer Bogner Redback/G12K-100 combo.

    I hear what you are saying. I only like 212 cabs pushed. My 212 only gets used in situations where I can push it. The Red/100 works well for this. But I still like them either way. In my 212 cabs I find these speakers fill out some of what is missing in a smaller cab. Otherwise, I mostly use my...

    Killer Bogner Redback/G12K-100 combo.

    Hey guys, I'm a 412 guy and even for a lightweight cab, I prefer a 412 with two speakers, hence a detuned 412. Sounds as huge as a 412 with four speakers and not much larger than a 212. Anyway, I still have one 212,my Bogner oversized 212. Man I have tried every speaker combo on thr planet in...

    Spawn Quickrod 50 thoughts

    I just got a 2019 Quickrod 100. I much prefer the 100 to the 50. Even this head full power compared to half power. I find the full power hsd such a fatter, fuller, and smoother tone. Feels better to me as well. Similarly I much prefer 412 cabs to 212 cabs. It's not even close to my ears and...

    Tone rant of the day...

    I've tried to avoid sound men for thr most part. Many of our gigs we didn't mic the guitar, we used stage volume, so not going thru the PA. That worked the best.

    Yngwie Protein Powder

    So wait, has he gotten into fitness or bodybuilding? I've been training my entire life and Malmsteen is that last person I think of when it comes to the gym.

    Why do you have so many guitars?

    I hate that question. When I had more guitars in my younger days I got that question all the time. Now, I'd rather have more amps than guitars. With LPs, no matter how many I had, I always favored one, so I sold the others. When I got divorced (thank God) I was in a really tough financial spot...

    Which EL34's are you all using?

    I like em so much, I have em in my Dual Rec too. For me personally, they have this feel!

    Which EL34's are you all using?

    Old thread but always a fun topic. After all these years, I need Electro Harmonix EL34s in my amps. They just have a feel and aggression I can't find elsewhere. The biggest thing is feel. It's like the notes are more pliable and the amp is more fun to play.

    Bogner Helios owners, talk to me

    Napalm, thanks bro. I got to check out a 5150IIIS EL34 and love it. Getting one. It reminds me of an old Marshall in the organic and natural feel of it, but Hella aggressive and modernized with a touch of Soladano. Hard to explain but very aggressive, organic feel, yet amazing harmonic...

    Bogner Helios owners, talk to me

    Sounds like a lot of you find the Helios Eclipse too noisy, and losses the magic of the original? I'd prefer good channel switching options. I like aggressive amps and this is one of the few Bogners I hear that is aggressive.other than the Uber. That said, I do love my Bogner Shiva. I've...

    Friedman JJ100 Double J Jerry Cantrell Signature Amp Demo

    It's crazy to think Jerry worked to have this great signature amp but then went back to his Bogner amps.

    Friedman BE 50 Deluxe...Thoughts?

    I also didn't know the Deluxe amps were designed to be more aggressive. I'm assuming some of you find that increase in aggression to destroy the great tone of the BE. Dave claims the BE-50 Deluxe is the best amp he's built. Depends what he means by best amp.

    Friedman BE 50 Deluxe...Thoughts?

    Interesting how some people can love an amp and some hate an amp. One man's aggression is another man's polite. I'm in the market to add an amp to my stable, this summer and the BE-50 Deluxe is on my list, along with the Bogner 3534 50w, Diezel D-Mol, and EVH 5150 III EL34. I really like the...

    Best Chorus Pedal?

    After many years, my current go to chorus/flange pedal is the Catalinbread Callisto MKII. Excellent pedal! It doesn't do jet flange but it will do amazing chorus into great flange territory without full on jet flange. It lives in that beautiful space between chorus and flange. It just sounds and...
