New Amp Day!!!!!

[Juggernaut]

Got my "new" Randall RG100ES!!!!

YEA!!!!

Now I'm just waiting for the RGP1000 preamp and RRM 2-120 power amp.

 

[RaceU4her]

you need a randall cab with jaguars

 

[Juggernaut]

I've had several, I NEED another


right now I need 2 16ohm speakers for the Marshall cab.

 

[Juggernaut]

no love for the RG?

 

[trey85stang]

where is the rg100ht

 

[Juggernaut]

swapped it for the ES, it didn't sound as good as the one I have at the "studio/rehearsal space" So I swapped it out for the ES, which I needed to complete part of the collection....

Next on the Randall hitlist:

Warhead
X2
C-170
Late 70's RG80
RB500

But first I'm gonna finish my "Dime-rig" And I need a PQ3, MXR 6 band, MXR Doubler/Flanger
I'm using the RGP1000 and RRM 120 for my Dime-rig

not cool, I called dibs Good thing I was broke anyways.

BTW, on your adventures looking for randall gear.. if you find someone wanting that rgp1000 willing to trade an rg100ht hook me up

 

[Juggernaut]

try the Dean forums..........although it would be a tough sell.


FWIW, IMO the RGP is better, because the HT/ES clean channels SUCK BALLS, unless you get it modded, because the gain channel bleeds thropugh into the clean, so you NEVER get a truely clean signal.

Find you a good Randall or other power amp and you'll be set.

Nice.

By the look of it, it's probably a '87, maybe a late '86 model? I know too much about those amps.

 

[Juggernaut]

yea I figured it was an 87, but I'll open her up this weekend, and find out for sure.

ohh.. if they bleed through then nevermind. The clean is the main thing I like about this preamp. Ill find one of those rold school rrm poweramps then. There is one on ebay I might snag if it doesnt go for too much.

BTW, I just posted in your thread on the dean forum.. someone was asking for a clip of the rgp... and I like posting clips

Yeah, that bleed through is true for alot of them. The Later Randall RG's have a better clean though... especially the XP series, which are made around '89 - '90.

I find the the lead channel is best on the '85 - '86 models though. Screw cleans.

 

[Juggernaut]

yea just saw that.......


Thats another reason why I picked another RGP, they're just to f'n cool of a preamp.

I cant believe that one on ebay is going for $305 so far....Thats crazy, the most I've ever paid for one is $150

Dont bid, you have a 2-120 on the way

That one looks like it is an almost out of box mint condition though.. your new one does too also though.

Goddammit!

 

[trey85stang]

im really wondering why the rgp1000 didnt catch on back in the day... they seem to be a rarity. you think back in the late 80's early 90's whne big racks were the rage they would of done a lot better.

Dont feel bad, I think it's my fault.....

I posted over at the Dean forums and within a day the bid on that one shot up, i think a couple of the Randall/Dime fanatics over there are bidding it up.

 

[mentoneman]

congrats-

however i do feel that randall's logo is one of the worst there is, next to old peavey amps.

 

[Juggernaut]

I like it, it's simple and not over the top, it's not like it's that pointy atrocity that Peavey uses......

I've seen those Flanger/Doublers go for up to $500. Good luck with your search. That's a rig I've always wanted to put together myself. <-- JEALOUS.
