The Doom Room: ILF Edition

[samzadgan]

Anybody ever use a Mr Black Overdriver? Our merch guy was selling a bunch of his stuff to buy a Mesa Stiletto and I got it off of him to help him out. He runs it to boost a Laney in his hardcover band. Sounds cool and his tone is killer but I've never got to play with it before. Supposedly a low gain od with no tone but a presence knob instead. Sounds like it has potential to stack with other stuff pretty well.

you talking about the thunderclaw? I've tried that, and its more distortion than OD...sounds great though.

Nah, it was a super limited run a while back I think. I had never heard of it until he showed it to me at practice a few months ago. i messed around with it this morning and I like it a lot. it is one of the few pedals that no matter where you set the knobs it all sounds good. I'm covering the same ground with my Witchburner so I doubt it'll stay on my board but I may be able to find a use for it. http://www.mrblackpedals.com/products/b ... overdriver Stacks great with some fuzz and sounds great when boosting the high gain channel on the JMP. I was nailing some old Slayer riffs with it this morning. Shoulda recorded some clips.

Speaking of which, I don't know if I mentioned on here about how while adding another bedroom to the house to make room for baby we converted my patio into a sound proof practice space. I just got my computer moved in and now I can really start doing more demos of stuff. We're practicing later today so I have two overhead condensers set up to record our ideas. I think this will make us a lot more productive since the band is spread out so far.

That Carvin looks awesome in the smaller shell.

Thanks dude! I'm really stoked on it, especially when paired with my new cabs.



Atlas 2x12 (with V30s) and 2x12+1x15 (WGS Et90s and Jenson Mod 15). It. Sounds. Gnarly.

Rig looks sweet.

I just had a quick fidget with the Dunn de 1984 that came in today.
Those of you thinking about this 5150 in a box thing should pick up a Redeemer (renamed 1984) as this is a fucking great distortion box.

Waiting for Christian to edit my post into something more entertaining.

I've been curious about these. I've had two of the Peavey 5150 script heads..I would like to see an A-B-C comparison between a Peavey 5150, a Redeemer/1984 into a clean amp, and one of the MXR 5150 pedals. I'm fairly sure the MXRs are based on the Fender 5150 IIIs though.

Sorry mate, I missed this.
I don't have access to a 5150 but if I ever do I'll try and do a shoot out.
Talk to bronzetalon about it, this one was his. He sent it to me dialled in to match his own 5150.
I'm pretty impressed with it. It sounds super fat on my pro tube and while it loses a bit of something on my little orange solid state it's still pretty impressive.
Nice cut and chug.
And NO FIZZ!!!

Speaking of doom, Blizaro pleasantly surprised me last night. Very cool traditional doom out of upstate NY.

No wories, glad you're happy with it!

It is definitely cool.
I'd be keen to hear the new options on the Redeemer as well.

That's John Gallo from Orodruin - I love his music

I dig this a lot! Good stuff!

Depending on how job switching goes and if I can get a Tuesday free, imma finally see Red Fang and Whores play. The Bluebird is a pretty fantastic venue too!

[HeavyXIII]

Infinitely jelly. I can't drive out to TX to see them play again. :/
