Re: Eminence speakers (Patriot/Redcoat)

Why's that? And how do they do with a pair of swamp thangs?



The red white and blues or the 125's?

the rw&b tames brightness, that's why i use 2

i wouldn't reccomend them alone because they're really, really dark. The best way i can describe them is tons of gritty dark mids, dark & lacking highs, and dark & lacking lows. I can see them for some sort of...expirimental tone, but not for anything else, by themselves that is

as far as my 6x12 with 2 rwb & 4 swamp thangs, well, i think it sounds friggin great. Real real american sounding. Plug a marshall into them & it leaves much to be desired, but, plug any vintage bassman, bandmaster, 5150/xxx, basically anything with 6l6's into it & it's great. Real real good for complimenting "the 6l6 tone". Brings out all the great parts, like the lows & highs, adds a little midrange grit, it's just great. this is also a LOUD combo, with the rwb at 101db and the swamps at 102, if i remember right, both rating at 100+ watts.

I've been thinking about getting a cannibus rex for my Crate V1512 because I can't afford a Tone Tubby, anyone tried them?

I've got a Swamp Thang and Texas Heat. I wouldn't recommend the ST by itself as it's low end can be a bit much. But mixed with the more even eq'd TH its a great combo.

Teletubby's er Tonetubby...the mids sounds wrong on them...everyone I have tried.
I am also looking for something to get myself out of the Celestion rut.
I love G12H's but sometimes I just want something else, something with that woody midrange and fat bottom, airy highs...sigh...hehe

Re: Eminence speakers (Patriot/Redcoat)

well, i've never had overly bassy guitars

one is the hh blackout, with the '59 bridge in asian basswood, and the other is a nashville tele with a hot rail

and compared to like a 5150, bassmans don't have THAT much low end, i mean there's a lot, but it's no biggie to tame, plus they're avatar cabs
