What?
 
Re: Why are Valveking 100s so dang cheap? Something really wrong with em I'm not seei

It's a DSP modeller that costs a bundle and SOUNDS LIKE A$$. That part I've witnessed personally... if it sounds like that, no I'm not gonna be memorizing its specs and schematics, or go looking under the hood trying to figure out what those sad buggers did wrong (as usual). Also sounds worse than most Chinese things with 12ax7's in their preamps, coincidentally... PRS SE 30 ain't nothin to turn your nose up against - but THIS IS.

Also, Line6 ... BOUGHT Bogner. That's the only reason that nameplate is on there. Line6 didn't quite take the plunge to devaluing the Bogner brand entirely by putting its name on every sorry little Spider (legally it could), but now, EVERY expensive L6 product is getting the Bogner nameplate in conjunction with the Line6 name... AND IT DOESN'T MEAN ANYTHING.

Made by Bogner = Made by Line 6 (now).

<sigh>

Wrong again.

It's like being wrong about things is your job.

The Line6/Bogner amps are DSP modeling preamps paired with class A/B 6L6 power amps. You may hold them in such low regard that you decline to memorize their specs, but this makes the fact that you said "L6/Bogner is SOOO NOT tube driven. It's some puny Bogner-designed hybrid preamp in a Spider-style modeler" even more awkward, since it's written in plain text on this very page for everyone to see. Once again you're an expert on everything right up until you get called out for being full of sh*t, and then it's just one deflection after another while you spray even more false information.

Line6 didn't buy Bogner. Bogner is still independently owned and operated by the same company it always was. Line6 may have a paid licensing agreement to put the Bogner name on their amp designs which use the Bogner-designed tube power amp component. This is neither unusual or misleading in any way to anyone but you.

Line6 is not producing the standard Bogner-branded and serialed amps. Bogner does. In California.

You don't know any specifics of the agreement(s) between Line6 and Bogner, nor are you qualified to provide details on such agreements.

You are an internet troll.

You lack a legitimate point of view.

You contribute nothing to the discussion that is meaningful or valuable.

Hehe, in other words, all y'all are being sore n jealous bout me being able to score good **** for like 5 times less than you end up paying for new ****-****... and being able to type hella fast.

5 times less? So you're paying $15 for stuff? Look who you're talking to. I had to start building my own stuff because it was all I could afford. I can't even afford a truss rod, so I make one with materials I can afford. A simple 3/16" solid steel rod and pieces of a 1/2"steel rod from home depot.

Whatever to build your already huge ego. No matter what anyone says, there is no getting through to you because you are just so dense. Grow up already, and stop lying to yourself by telling yourself you know everything. I've seen arrogant bastards of kids my age that still show more maturity than what is shown in your actions here.

My idea of fun is to throw The Guy Who Invented Fire and Adieu in a room together in real life! LOL

He's not in this thread because he wouldn't click on a Valveking thread, but it WOULD be funny to make them hang out for a weekend. :18:

The level of misinformation and sheer arrogance in this thread dissapoints me.

Christian is smarter than us for not having clicked on the link! Man I need that "why did I click on that link" smiley.

Also...I think I'm getting a brain tumor from the over abundance of "dumb" in here.

Perhaps to steer somewhat back to the topic:

So did you/will you buy the Valveking 100 or not?

I picture steam coming out of Christian's ears like a cartoon character.

I played alongside a Valveking player for years, sounded great and could get pretty close to my 5150 sound. Neither of us are using our Peavey amps live anymore but when we did the sound was so close between the two at live/venue volumes that you could not really tell them apart. So personally I never understand a dislike of the Valveking, very affordable and more versatile than a 5150, while being capable of very similar tones.

I personally think the 5150 is one of the finest sounding high gain/metal amps money can buy, and the massively popular 6505 (more popular than the 5150 ever was) would point to that being on merit, and not because of some relation to EVH that ended nearly a decade ago. With that said It wasn't everything that I wanted and I now play a Cornford Hellcat.

How many people here do you think contributed to that? Just curious.

I can't get past the irony of having a username that means "goodbye", which I'm sure we all wish he would just say and be done with it.

Ooh, nice, sane ppl in the thread. With constructive info. Thx.

Btw, perhaps I should clarify: it's not so much my dislike for the 5150/6505 sound specifically, but its comparative lack of versatility when you're trying to get a DIFFERENT tone out of it (which I personally failed to achieve when I tried), that spoils that particular amp for me... if the 5150 was a channel, with 2 distinct others with a variety of possibilities (like the big Marshall TSL heads), maybe I'd actually even like it for certain things.


Perhaps to steer somewhat back to the topic:

So did you/will you buy the Valveking 100 or not?

Not yet, but I'm getting rather more confident that I want one.

Waiting on some cash owed to me, or until I flip another guitar. Or, better yet, until someone on CL has one that I could trade something I don't need for.... cuz, sure, VK 100's are cheap, but trading away something that's just gathering dust and wasting garage space for it instead of digging into my wallet for a couple c-notes would be even better value.

АДю.

It's my initials, actually. Well, 3 letters thereof and coincidentally my signature (in another language/alphabet).

In any case, how the hell does my login relate to the topic at hand, or any other for that matter? It's not like I'm calling myself BlondePuffyTitMonster or FatCock335 or anything else that'd offend anyone...

Btw, any one of the haters care to explain what exactly FASCINATES you lot so much about my person? I certainly don't remember YOUR threads, your comments, or psychoanalyze YOUR usernames, and could care less... You bunch, on the other hand, are like those people in checkstand aisles that stare at the latest tabloid with that babyface whats-is-name (rhymes with beaver) or those Armenian sisters, and discusses the 10 billion things they can't stand about em. Now, I don't like em either, but I don't know the first thing about em, not even how they got in those tabloids and what they're famous for. Cause I don't care....

sincere bit of folk wisdom: dislike someone? good for you. now try to stop obsessing about every little detail about em, and just, y'know, try AVOIDING them, maybe? like pissing off from their threads, if, according to you, those threads annoy you? yeah?

Nothing like a good "I'm not a troll; you guys are the real trolls" post.

Oh, and I'm gonna see if I can get my username changed to BlondPuffyTitMonster.
