do you know any shop on the internet who has the egnater 30 combo and the dual terror in stock?

I mean, inside europe.

Posted: **Thu Jul 16, 2009 9:38 pm**

Dual Terror isn't out yet I don't think, and I think that Egnater didn't have any distribution outside the US until very recently.

Thomann is offering egnater amps yet, but it don't have the amps in stock now... It says that they will have the amps in stock august's 21th.

They could well be the first distributor in Europe. How are their prices?

I've always been intrigued by their amps but I think I'm happy with my Tiny Terror for good now. I seriously thought about getting a Blackstar HT-5 for a while but I think I'm over it. The TT is a part of me now.

edit - fucking hell - Â£500 for a Rebel 20 and Â£228 for the cab?!. A bit rich for my blood.

Yeah...too expensive... But the features are amazing I think. Too expensive of course.

Oh cool opinion about TT...A part of you...haha cool. Yes, ht-5 is so good but i pretend play out of my room...

Uou orange 2x12 cabinet open back is too cheap in dv247...Looks very good...

The egnaters are aweful for cleans. They'll have a creat crunch tone but the cleans are just dull from the head and combo versions I have played. I think a blues jr would be a great place to start as they are super clean up most of the dial but will probably start to break up when you're competing against a drummer. Mayer uses a lot of different amps aswell, some claim he uses srv's dumble at times aswell, but his guitar and signature little dipper pickups (low output) are what really sculpts his sound I think.

If your looking for a good crunchy distortion go for a dirty little secret or a box of rock, run a neck single coil through it and it'll sing.

Dirty little secret from catalinbread it's too difficult to find one here... Box of rock is easier...
What about the tubescreamer kinda pedals?

If you're using mainly neck pickups or both pickups then you might really like Tubescreamers, I prefer more bass retention in my drive so lean on the DLS side of things.

It completely depends what sort of dirty sounds you like. The proguitarshopdemos might help you, as might ours; shortscalegeardemos, both are youtube channels.

The DLS seems to be extremely popular at the moment and for good reason I think. I built myself one and I really like it, it's my main overdrive sound with one of my bands.

Order directly from their website, they ship internationally - that's what I did. Took just over 2 weeks to arrive.

To play blues and that kind of ''low gain'' sounds I ever use the neck pickup...It's a 490R I think... In the future i want to buy an old jaguar or a baja tele...Don't know...If I become a bit rich an eric johnson or a john mayer strat could be really good

I know proguitarshop demos and shortscalegear demos, I'm suscribed of course

DLS, Box of rock, and astone overdrive (tubescreamer kind) are my options or so...i have to decide... box of rock it's too expensive...but don't know...i have to study it...BB preamp and ocd sounds good too...

Box of mike/rock really ownsÂ¡ Best option i think...

And in the amp section still the TT, Blues junior and egnater...

The Box Of Rock is expensive, but there are ways to get the pedal for cheaper.

if you were going down the route of a box of rock, get mike to build you one. heartily recommended by haze and me.

fact

my klon(e) sounds simply amazing with the gain cranked, but they're a pretty penny aswell. Tube screamers are pretty standard for blues but I like the rc and bb preamp. You can dial in more bass that a ts might loose.

Or you van man-land it up with a big muff ; )

go with the blues junior--good for practice and throw a pedal in front of it and your fine
best bang for the buck

Posted: **Fri Jul 24, 2009 9:13 pm**

The small Laneys are totally underated and very affordable... I would consider this !!

Not sure about the egnator or blackstar... they seem to have little character to me...

What guitars are you using ? This I feel is quite important in suggestions !!

check out the blues junior ltd in tweed- selling for 5 something and has a jensen spkr- sounds pretty good
