Hi everyone, Up for sale is my 1997 Bogner Ecstasy 101b. This amp needs no introduction and is in great shape and is a fantastic channel switcher. This will come with the original footswitch. It has the Class A/AB switch. Hieroglypic serial number 383. I'm located in Toronto, Canada and will...

Looking to get some advice on how best to setup my rig to jam along to backing tracks / songs outside of an amp and a separate speaker playing the backing track. Curious to see what people's setups are. I have an Axe FXIII with studio monitors but curious to see how everyone does it with their...

This is an early 2000's 3 channel Mesa Dual Rectifier with a Chrome Chassis that Henric rebuilt with his 4 gain stages circuit. All channels are modified, the internal layout is changed and shielded cables are installed for a lower noise floor and much better dynamic response. The distortion...

This is a Monomyth Skeleton Key from early 2023 that I ordered directly from Shea. I am the original owner and it has low hours on it. The tolex is in mint condition and has never been gigged or used outside of my smoke-free house. The amp is killer. I think there is enough information across...

Hey everyone, I've seen a few people on the forum who have had multiple versions from these guys. I.e. had a Hermansson they sold, then later got a different revision to send to have modded. I'm curious to see what people's thoughts are who have tried multiple versions of these mods by various...

Hey everyone, Just got my first LP custom used. Nice ebony board, weighs about 10lbs. It has some custombuckers in it currently that are fairly low output (8.0K at the bridge). Thinking of maybe swapping them out. What's everyone's favorite set? I've never tried the 500T, 498T or 490R. I hear a...

I sold my Mesa Rectifier Horizontal 2x12 a while back but am thinking of getting another one used. I saw Mesa recently released a diagonal 2x12. Has anyone tried one of these? I'd be using the cabinet primarily with my Hermansson Dual Recto and my Green Stripe Mark III++. Cheers, Jesse

Hey all, I'm curious about the ESP eclipse, I currently have a Gibson LP standard with the 60's slim neck but i'm looking for a single cut that's a bit faster and can go a bit heavier (given a lot of the eclipse have EMGs in them) and I prefer an ebony board. I owned an LTD KH-602 in the past...

Hey all, Has anyone tried one of these? The addition of the neck pickup is a nice addition relative to the older models. Not sure the ESP Custom Shop version is worth the big bump in price given the specs are very similar. Looking to get a V-type shredder that can do the heavy rhythm stuff and...

Hey all! Been a little while since I posted. I've seen lots of positive reviews on the new Uber Ultra lately. I've never tried an Uberschall unfortunately, but I have a fantastic Ecstasy 101B from 1997 that impressed me with Bogner. I have several high gainers (Friedman BE100 DLX, Monomyth...

Curious to see what people's thoughts are on these if they've tried them. They seem to be fairly similar in price to the current Gibson LP Standards. just wondering if people have tried any of these yet. I'm most interested in the Greeny and Adam Jones Standard models. Cheers, Jesse

Hey everyone, This is a bit of a niche question, but for anyone out there who has tried / owned both, what did you prefer and why? Curious to see if the differences are significant or not between these two models. Pricing premium seems to go towards the Black Dot / No Stripe from what I can...

Hey all, What would you choose between these two if they were the same price? Curious to see how people compare the III vs the IV. Curious as well what the "best" revisions are for these two amps. Don't see those comparisons as much. I've only ever owned a Mark V and wasn't crazy about it...

Hey everyone, I've beefed up my amp collection recently. I have a late 90's Bogner 101b, Fryette Deliverance D60 I, and a Friedman BE100 DLX in my collection and have been using them through a Mesa Recto 2x12 with V30s in it. I've been thinking about getting a 4x12. I've only heard good things...

Hey everyone, Looking to get some fresh views on everyone's favourite high gain head for lead tones. Curious to hear what effects you're running through. I'm more of a marshall-based guy but love some obvious non-marshall lead tones (some of Petrucci's stuff in Dream Theatre comes to mind) but...

ThorpyFX Pulse Doppler Phaser, Redbeard Effects Angry Rhubarb, Demon Pedal Kondo Shifuku Dumble Style OD Realize I am just not going to use these pedals ever - been using my current board and Axe FX III for effects mainly. The pedals i've bought new and have only used them once to test them and...

Hi all, Have the BE100 Deluxe which I love - covers a lot of ground and no plans on moving it. What are some high gain alternatives that would complement it? i.e. different voicing, more gain, less "saturated" etc. Curious to see what options there are to justify adding another high gainer that...

Hey everyone, I've been looking at the Fryette stuff for a while for a bit more of an open sounding, high gain head. The D60 II is available new (albeit I can't try one because I'm in Canada) but I could buy and return if needed. There is also a used Fryette Pittbull 50 CL. I was wondering if...

Hey all, Was in a store picking up a new guitar and wanted to give it a test run. The store had a Badlander 50W combo which has a 65W Creamback speaker in it I believe. I was pretty impressed with the sounds I could get in under 5 minutes (mainly playing hair metal and thrash type stuff on it)...

Hi everyone, I've found I am very attracted to the modded Marshall builders mentioned here frequently (Friedman & Wizard for example). I think i'm covered there. But could someone give me some insight on the prototypical American high gain sound (Mesa, 5150?) that is different from the marshall...
