Doc Ascension Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 i miiigghhht be interested - tell me more about the sounds you get out of it?What styles would you say its best for - i play power metal and never thought of H&K being suited to this style? Any thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragon_force Posted February 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 Hmm,You're question is a bit tricky........ I've not come across many 'jazz' half-stacks in my time! To cut a long story short I'm a metal'er as well (I'd love to say power metal but I'm not good enough!). That's why I bought a halfstack, big ball's sound which can move enough air to handle the Bass EQ being turned up.This amp is a hybrid rock/metal thing - it doesn't really do much else. That said, I only use the clean channel and let my floor board handle the crunchy stuff. It's ehm.... a half stack - any good for metal? Yip!In terms of H&K stuff - this was my first H&K amp and based on my experices I would recommend them. It simple, bullit proof and sounds goods!All I can say is come round and try it - first person who does will buy it.....(jazz-ercisers need not apply). -TPS If this thread turns into a 'I use a halfstack for jazz' discussion I will be forced to issue a sever mocking to any contributor.PPS To tempt more buyers - I'll throw in the Maiden flag which is the perfect size for covering the cab (and its the cool Powerslave one!).

Monk Rocker Posted February 24, 2005 Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 Will you knock a few quid off I a buyer doesn't want the flag? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragon_force Posted February 24, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 In addition to the 'Starting a jazz thread' warning please note that slagging off the Maiden flag will also not be tolerated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craig deadenstereo Posted February 26, 2005 Report Share Posted February 26, 2005 I nearly got a Triamp head for $900 US but the guy pussied out on shipping it to Florida for me to pickup. Would have been deal of the century. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Ascension Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 that indeed would have been an epic deal - where was he shipping it from? somewhere in the US also i assume? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
