Dime Distortion or MT-2
Posted: Mon May 02, 2005 9:15 pm
They seem about the same to me. Don't have the metal zone anymore So I can't compare Except for the badass glow-in-the-dark decals on the MXR-RiP DiME

bullshit, my MT-2 sounds AWESOME on my buddies 80's model Laney AOR Series 50W all tube head, and it made my 1972 Marshall 100W Superlead a BEAST!Kellan wrote:the MT-2 sounds killer on a solid state practice amp, but don't even think about putting it into a tube amp or any sort of combo
it'll sound like shit
i have the rocktron "zombie" rectified distortion pedal. it's made specifically for tube amps i guess.
with an eq it sounds great i think
sounds like dogshit on my amp, even with my EQBalls On Parade wrote:bullshit, my MT-2 sounds AWESOME on my buddies 80's model Laney AOR Series %)W all tube head, and it made my 1972 Marshall 100W Superlead a BEAST!Kellan wrote:the MT-2 sounds killer on a solid state practice amp, but don't even think about putting it into a tube amp or any sort of combo

the 5150 is no longer in production as EVH has copy rights to those #'s. therefore the 6505 is replacing it even though it's the same ampAlabamaRedneck wrote:What in the blue hell are you talking about?eris wrote:The number has changed to 6505.AlabamaRedneck wrote:Not bad, better than my crap amp.

its the same circuitry nigguh just different name cos EVH has the name copyrighted.AlabamaRedneck wrote:I wouldn't buy a new one, I'd buy the old one. That's my point. Like what Rob used on Through The Ashes Of Empires.
The standard story is that the block letter models are the best sounding. I've played a newer one and it sounded ok to me. Never played an old one so I can't say personally. But every review you read, people trash the newer ones and say they like the old ones better. I've also heard that the clean channel is really shitty on the old ones though. They say it's not even really clean at all. So I don't know. I know for sure though that Rob used the old block logo on TTAOE and the tone on Imperium rules.Metallash wrote:its the same circuitry nigguh just different name cos EVH has the name copyrighted.AlabamaRedneck wrote:I wouldn't buy a new one, I'd buy the old one.
