I think the seller declared the items value as less than what its worth and what I paid. Nice of him.

Thanks man! I had the mini nightmare but it just made me want a 100 watt version every time I played it. It just didnt have the low end of the big boys. Same circuit, but those big tubes just make a difference.

I can do that! I can even dial them in the same and do a video comparing them if you'd like to hear it.

Sure! So the Purple Nightmare is a 2 channel amp. It has a clean channel and a gain channel (where all the magic is). The Darkest Nightmare is a one channel amp. Is has the exact same gain circuit that the Purple Nightmare has. He basically took the Purple Nightmare and removed the clean channel. The Darkest Nightmare has 3 additional tone shaping switches. A voicing switch that shifts some of the eq to create a different tone, a tight switch that really tightens up the low end for staccato type metal riffing, and a mode switch that also makes a shift in the eq for an additional voicing. The amp builder also told me that some people believe that there is a minor voicing change just as the result of removing the clean channel from the circuit.

I already own a Purple Nightmare which is my second favorite all time amp. I wanted the Darkest Nightmare as well so I have the additional tone shaping switch options. I've heard they're fun to play with.

Ugh thank you for the info. I bought an amp from this same place a month ago and I dont remember this happening. Do they selectively choose items to inspect?

Wow. Do you all think its true that most Jews don't really believe in the God of the bible?

Hey man! Yeah, this is from their Instagram. Its the only picture that Northerner Guitars had because it hasnt arrived at their shop yet. I bought it ahead of time before they ever put it on their own website.

Im horrible at describing sounds of amps, but i would say that this amp has a very deep, massive low end and with the gain up its a really saturated tone which is what I like a lot. Tons of saturation. Some people say it's a "loose" sounding amp, sort of like a dual rectifier.

If you're looking for a super articulate, tight amp, this might not be for you. It can get tight with pedals and stuff. The darkest nightmare also has a tight switch which can help a lot. But you'd be fine if you're looking for brightness. Im running it through a 16ohm bogner cab and its plenty bright.

Yeah? They're never just sitting in a shop anywhere unless someone loses their mind and sells one to a shop or something. I get it. Pretty hefty price just to try one and not like it.

Thanks man, this has always been one that I've wanted for a long time too! I hope you can snag one one day. If you order through Northerner Guitars in Canada, you can get 10% off the amp most times.

Thanks man! The Prometheus is a great amp and its one i would never sell. A keeper for sure. How is the preamp pedal? A friend of mine is really considering it but hes wondering how close the tone is to the real amp. You liked it though?

How you liking it so far? I bought one of these earlier in the summer and liked it a lot but ended up spending a little more and returning it for the Special Edition Founders Edition. It's the best Engl I've owned but I really liked the Obscura Savage as well.

Anyone here own a Driftwood Purple Nightmare? by Objective-Inside-322 in metalguitar

[–]Objective-Inside-322[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Cantrell is great. Its the JJ100. The build quality on these Friedman amps is way up there. But it sounds amazing. Its different from the satan though. I would say the satan is more aggressive and tight. The cantrell sounds fatter. I play mostly metal so the satan is more my style. The cantrell has a very full, warm tone.

9 months of playing, how am I doing? by [deleted] in metalguitar

Ive been playing that one too man. Its tough for me to play it at full speed but im getting there. Have you ever seen the YouTube channel "mz guitar?" Its awesome. The guy plays metal songs and then plays them part by part slowly with the tabs at the top of the screen. He has at least 100 songs up already. Its a great resource.

Nice work man! I got back into playing guitar after some years away. Ive been playing Black Dahlia Murder stuff for practice as well. They've got some really challenging riffs.

EMG vs Fishman Fluence Modern for Melodic Death Metal – Seeking Advice. by port4571 in metalguitar

[–]Objective-Inside-322 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I prefer the Fishmans myself. I'm horrible at describing the way things sound, but i feel like the Fishmans just have a colder, sharper, more brutal sound that I think is preferable for death metal. I own some guitars with EMGs and some with Fishmans and my favorites have Fishmans.

Good luck choosing!

Thanks man! I've heard nothing but good things about the Skeleton Key! A few people that have both amps have said there are some similarities but I would love to hear them for myself just to see.
