Re: Custom 5 for METAL ?

Hey imrichbeyotch, your a arrogant little SOB arnt you, who are you to say my amp isent good enough. I dont know what you do for a liveing but i have a ex wife, 13 year old daughter, house and truck payments so any gear i get is not what i can afford but what i want. All i can say is i like the results i get from my gear. By the way, what are you playing through, thats what i thought. If you want to stay in good around here you might want to watch who you tick off !

I dont think he is being arrogant but i do feel he is being honest
while crate is not the worst amp ever, it is not the ideal metal amp unless of course you have the Blue Voodoo half stack

Robert S. Come see my band June 19 Sat. night at THE BULLFROG and tell me if the C5 is any good with my boogie setup?? If you get a chance. I wonder if it is tooo thin on the highs. Someone said to try an alnico 4 magnet? Know anything about Alnico 4s?

You could try the Custom as I find it thicker and warmer while still being clear and tight, plus good for clean tones.

Klink, I run the C-5 in a LP through Mesa gear so I have a good idea of what is possible. Unfortunately I am playing out saturday night as well or I'd be at the Frog for your gig. I'm just down the road from the Frog though so if you ever want to stop by with your rig so that we could compare set-ups and tone, that would be doable and very cool.
