jazseven Posted May 18, 2014 Posted May 18, 2014 Carvin v3m or Hughes & Kettner Tubemeister36 both tiny amps and masively loud with more gain than you could ever need
Joeyfivebags Posted May 21, 2014 Posted May 21, 2014 6505+ are great amps but probably seriously overpowered if he is thinking of DarkTerror. The H&K Tubemeister36 has a huge sound for something so small, plus they do have a power soak option. Best bet for metal sound is look for something with either EL84s or 34s rather than 6L6s. Few guitarists i know have tried the Laney Ironheart and really disliked the sound although they get rave reviews from some areas.
Tuco Posted November 2, 2014 Posted November 2, 2014 [quote name='fretmeister' timestamp='1392646414' post='2371001'] A used EVH 5150iii 50W model could be found for £600 Amazing amp. I love mine. The blue channel does the perfect cranked Plexi thing (and more) and the red goes to proper brewtalz. [/quote] I use my 5150iii 50W as my bass head too.. Green channel volume maxxed and use the gain as volume control.. wr0ks for me LOVE it
Matt P Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 (edited) if he's using a rack effects setup then i'd suggest a rack pre/power to go with it, i'm not really up with what preamps would suit but marshall used to make an el84 2x20W power amp that might suit? they did some el34 powered 50/50 and 100/100 amps as well if he wants to go into the building demolition business!
