that Ola warhead video got me wanting to mic my Jaguar up, and i havent played my vh140c in forever so it was time. this is my shit jackson kelly with invaders, my chrion boosting my vh140c and a unidyne 57 on a jaguar. random generic riff made up on the spot. sounds pretty dimebag'ish i think, tone really is 70% speakers

Nice !!!
 
I bought an old gray carpet-covered Randall 4×12 with Jaguars, and it kicked ass. Got it at a pawn shop for about $200.. I had just bought a brand new Marshall Valvestate 8100 head and needed a cab.
 
The Ampeg 140C is definitely more quintessential Dime Randall S/S tone, it doesn't have the slight tube compression that I hear in the Laney clip.

Both sound great and when you add them together they cover all the bases!:2thumbsup: I like the Laney as well.

Since I sold my 88 Randall RG100ES I still miss that tone at times but I can get pretty close to my old Dime tone with Eq'ing my Splawn Modded Marshall just so and running a VFE standout out front and my noise gate but it still misses that S/S crunchy grind that rides the notes, the Splawn just has tube qualities to it..... it's hard to explain but the difference is there when you play and hear them.

I have always heard the old Randall Jaguar speakers sounded like bassier versions of a V30 Celestion is this true? How do you hear them?

Didn't Dime go to Vintage 30's later on?

The VH-140C is more the quintissential death metal tone. The Dime tone is the rg100es or century 200 with a couple EQ's and a gate up front.

I believe Dime used both Jaguars and V30's because they made those old Randall cabs with either Jaguars or V30's. He mixed them I believe, but am not 100% sure.

id say they are a little lower mid focused for sure, to me they are kind of a happy medium between T75's and V30s. ill try and do a comparison of all three when i have a minute

i have the century cab as well with the G12-70h's or whatever that ive read he used, that cab sounds good too despite most people hating those speakers
 
Kick ass as usual. Def liked the second one better with the Laney :yes:

Not a big fan of box dot com. Is there a reason you like them? Hopefully you are going to say something like - less compression or loss of quality.

Not so much a complaint bro, it is just that there is nothing about the url link that tells me it is even a music clip. It is just very generic :dunno:

The only reason I open them is because it is you and I trust you. Does that make sense. Like, for Soundcloud it is a safer bet that it is going to be music and I then I can see that it is music pretty quickly. But don't go changin' just because of me.
