All good as long as you don’t think it actually sounds similar to a Hell Razor LOL. That one I still really don’t get at all. If you get a chance you gotta hear a Rev 1 Uber

It has been probably close to a year since i played one, but i will pay attention a little more now. Last year i was distracted by all the super amps and cool people. @warhead78 @Flavatrocious @RedB4Black are all badass guys....and there was 🍻

To be totally fair, he didn’t design the preamp. The poweramp and its lack of negative feedback though, arguably one of the most standout features of the amp, is Randy’s.

But yeah he definitely owes Mike Soldano a Christmas card every year for the rest of time lol.

Smith & Rhoads are the 2 best Randy’s ever!!

I’ve always liked Orange Modern more than the Red Modern. I don’t dislike Red, but Orange speaks to me more, mostly for reasons already talked about in the thread.

But I’ve heard so many great tones from people using the Red channel that I just figured the two channels are probably more suited to different guitars / pickups / cabs / speakers / mics, etc. I don’t think Randall designed the amp to do that on purpose or anything like that, but it seems to be how things have worked out.

That’s kinda similar to how I see it too. I think depending what amps one has the red can have its place. I just feel for what it offers other amps to me are just better, while the orange ch offers something so unique with its throaty growl that I haven’t at all heard that kind of sound elsewhere. I can definitely get sounds from the red ch I’m sure many would love, but I’m just cutting to the chase when I say that I much prefer the orange ch. For me it’s unique, while red is for me more in the generic direction in something a lot of other amps can come closer to matching and in some ways to me better

If you can get a TC style to use with it, it’s the way to go.

Also if it is an old 2 channel recto, on the back make sure if it’s on orange to modern that when you toggle to the red channel put it back in the normal setting. If you mess around with the vintage I can’t remember both presence controls affect it. Diodes always.

I have actually been preferring the tube recto on my 2 channel Triple lately. Diode can almost be too tight. Tube can bring more chug, depending on the cab.

Tube rectification mode can be really nice, especially with good vintage 5U4’s and they’re generally cheap

I lived with Deana right after she lived with Randy Savage. It was weird seeing him doing the Slim Jim commercials on TV when watching TV together. She always said Hulk Hogan was nice one of the bunch.
