It's rig update time!
Most of you know that I've been using a Splawn Pro Mod for a long time. I love the amp and it works really well for me. Recently though I learned that a good friend of mine is willing to sell me his Bogner Uberschall for a very reasonable price, and I'm going to take him up on it.
My current goal is to run a bi-amp set-up using both the Pro Mod and the Uber in tandem, through different cabs. I currently own a Splawn straight 4x12 cab and a Genz Benz G-Flex 2x12 cab and could run it that way in a giant stack, like so:
But I'm also considering matching cabinets. I'm a huge fan of the Splawn cabs, so I may decide to sell both of my cabs and buy two splawn vertical 2x12s. It might be easier and more practical to manage. Like so:
Of course for some crazy reason my drummer is dead-set on both guitarists running full stacks live. "He must be either very brave or completely insane!!" you say. Well friends, I tell you that he is both! Witness the terror:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Now, before you say "That's way too loud" or "there's no practical application for that much amp" let me tell you:
Shut it.
Kidding, kidding! But seriously, my band is way-underground nigh-instrumental doom thrash and we DON'T get many gigs in nice, fancy bars with huge sound systems. We play a lot of community centers, raunchy dives where they only mic vocals and kick/snare, parties, and basically anywhere else where free beer flows and people love metal. No one eats a meal to our music. No one expects to be able to talk to each other while we play. As I said in a previous thread:
Our music only sounds good through a layer of ear blood.
SO - practicality be ****ed! How would you run these two amps together? Opinions?
