block letter or signature? |
|
tubes were changed 2 months ago as well |
|
oh man!!! I am having a heart attack!!!! I have been searching for one for a de cent price for ever and the second one comes up I am broke. I am going to try and see if I can borrow cash. Are you selling it for any reason (more gear or something) ? |
|
he's probably selling it cuz 5150's suck ass. |
|
devin you shut up.
thats not a bad deal. |
|
Haha. I spoke nothing about a good deal. I will comment on the crappy sound that amp makes though. :-) |
|
Besides the annoying hi end presence , the 5150 is not a bad amp at all. Lots of gain and volume. I bought on of these around 1999, but returned it because I didnt like the hi end so much, ended up buying a Mesa single recto, then a crate black voodoo. I still want a VHT pitbull(sounded so sick when I played that) Blue use your gearslutz retail power and get me a VHT pitbull 150 !!! |
|
And the fact that it doesn't have a "clean" tone because of the gay ass rectifiers in the input section. fuck 5150's. |

yeah really. modded 5150's own |

powerkok said:
Yes !!! Clean sound is for gays! I have not used clean tone in a band since I was 17. |
|
I played one in baltimore and I agree with Devin... Yuck no overtones no character blah |
|
i think 5150's sound awesome. probably 80% of all great metal cds used them in recording. I originally bought it 2 months ago when my Soldano shit the bed. i am getting rid of it because i got a VHT endoursement and now have a Deliverance. I have the choice of working during our 2 week break or selling this amp. I would much rather not go back to work. anybody interested can call me with questions. |
|
and also, fuck clean tone. Neither my Soldano or VHT have it either. |
|
Hi, I'm wondering how big your penis is? |

Congrates dude, your a lucky man.
|

and anyone who talks trash about 5150s have never used it with a boost in front. |

I would buy it, but the Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan said not to trust your people. |

no footswitch. the guy i bought it from kept it for his other 5150.
|
|
You can get a footswitch for it off ebay, cheap. And they are built better and last much longer than the original Peavey footswitch; those things are junk.
I need to put my tubescreamer in front of my 5150. I use an Aphex Aural X-citer to brighten it up a bit but that doesn't boost it...
|
|
Really? a tube screamer?
I tried one of those a while back but didnt like it.
dosent the 5150 have enough dist already?
Or u need a solo boost? |
|
would be nice for a solo boost, just a c-hair more gain with a brighter flavor. Tube screamers + Tube head = BALLS TO THE WALL, it wouldn't work well with your pod, and it's not great with other solid state amps either |
|
i dont use the tubescreamer as a gain boost. i use it with level maxed and gain zeroed. what it does is hit the power tubes harder allowing for a more pleasant power tube distortion.
its sort of a well known studio trick. the general result is an amp that is a lot tighter with a well defined attack. i wouldnt have my 5150 any other way. |

What if you just use emg 81's, that should be enough? I am assuming you must get alot of noise, so a gate would be mandatory.
|
|
bump, someone buy my amp! |
|
So, Blue, you use it with your pre gain all the way down and max-out the post gain?
I cant image what that would sound like.
|
|
no, level maxed and gain zeroed on my tubescreamer.
i would never use a 5150 without a boost anyway.
using EMGS in front is somewhat similar, although i find using a boost more effective becuase i really dont like the sterility and abundance of high end that the 81s produce. medium output pickups generally produce higher clarity/note definition in chords and more technical riffing IMO. |

I fully agree with that statement. on a side note, what pick ups do you run normally? and whats in that jackson?
|
|
my jackson and ESP have a duncan JB in the bridge, although the jackson is just too bright with the JB so ill be swapping it out for a rio grande muy grande in the future.
however, my (somewhat) new ibanez 7 string has an evolution in the bridge, and man am i in love with it. |
|
what do you think of the screamin deamons? I have been thinking about one of them for my dk2 |
|
screamin demons are great, similar to a jb but with a rounder high end and a little less output. |

I'm about to give you a bump sexy. C'mon baby, be somebody. |

is there a picture for this head or what?
i bought a brand new 5150 head and slant cab at musicians friend clearance warehouse in kansas city for $750 I think... or maybe $800... either way it was a steal... nothing wrong with the head and the cab was missing a caster. |
|
if you still have that 51 for sale I got someone who will buy it cash on the spot |
|
sorry man, sold it a while ago. i ended up selling it off of craigs list. never relized how damn usefull that site is, got like 15 responses off of it day 1. |
|
I saw your add. I was going to respond to it and try and offer you crack for it. |
|
haha, sounds like a fair trade |
|
damn, yeah that would have been a sweet buy. all I can find on craigs list is a 65/05 but the dude wants to trade it for a marshall |
|
goratory nli said: haha, sounds like a fair trade |
Well, do be honest, I didn't really want the head, I just needed someone to crack the fuck out with, you feel me knocking? |
