PSA: Randall amps blowout at GuitarGuitar

What's Hot
StefBStefB Frets: 2331

I've just spotted these on the website and GG e-mail subscribers can expect an e-mail shortly I imagine.

Some huge reductions, with the Nuno & Kirk Hammett heads being of interest at £799.  Resale will be shocking on them all, but those two in particular seem like a decent brand new deal for anyone in the market for a 100w fire-breather with decent cleans.

    Cheap way into MTS modular stuff with the £199 20W head.

    There's always been something appealing to me about the raw excessive stupidity of the 667. No idea what one actually sounds like though.

    Bloody tempting, even though I have absolutely no need of it.

    I'm so tempted by the V2 archetype and the 667. By I'm not so sure either one would give me something that my Mesa Mark IV doesn't already do for me.

    Do you know if it's compatible with the Synergy modules as well?

    I looked at the synergy stuff but was quite pricey.  If these can use Synergy and MTS stuff I may have a dabble.

    It is. Egnator ones too. 

    You need to do a small mod to make the dual channel modules work though

    Isn't it common knowledge that Nuno doesn't actually us his Randall's and always has a Marshall behind them onstage?
    My Trade Feedback Thread is here

    Been uploading old tracks I recorded ages ago and hopefully some new noodles here.

    I will ask my friend who does servicing for Friedman /synergy and get back to you.

    Thanks @Toe_Knee ;;;

     So I wonder if that means that the synergy module channel change can be made footswitchable? I wonder if @FelineGuitars ;
    or @ICBM  ;could shed some light on this, I'm jealous of Johns Randall set up

    I believe you can via midi. Still not heard back but if you Google randall rm dual channel mod there are various mods/mod kits sold by different people. 

    I believe to make it midi switchable you need to add a micro controller

    Using that with my Helix could be pretty sweet....

    That 667 is still tempting. All those knobs and channels....

    The combo is tempting me, partially if I could use it without a module as a little power amp and speaker.

    Beware - it's a gateway drug.......

    ^ That’s ridonkulous and I love it. 

    Had I not recently switched over to a Helix rig then I’d have bought the head already, particularly if the synergy modules can be retrofitted with relative ease. I’d love the Diezel VH4 module to get that sound on a budget, but I’ve already got damned close with the HX so I’m really not seeing the point! Guess I’m getting old :(
