Framus Dragon VS Rivera Kr-7

trippled · 02-21-2008, 11:08 AM

Hello everyone,
Well i guess not many of you had the pleasure to try the kr-7 (-:
So im more asking about a comparison of the dragon and the knucklehead reverb which isnt that different.
I basically really love the sound of the uberschall and im searching for an amp that will have that type of deep crunch voicing.
Ive tried the rectoverb and it isnt really my thing, i didnt try the uberschall but i heard alot of professional recordings of it and i really like his voicing.
Would you say that the dragon can produce that kind of hi gain distortion?

Thanks,
Trippled.

U know, you need to think alot before spending these amounts of money.

My experience with my Dragon is that it isn't super high gain, but pushing it with a TS gives it the boost it needs. I really love the way mine sounds so it's acceptable to me. It's also my first tube amp. There may be something fucked with my amp too because everyone says that it has more than enough gain.

I think ill go for the rivera.

Well, I'd say try one out if at all possible. It could just be my n00bness or possibly having a fucked up amp.
