5150/6505/TripleRec in a box? (pedal question)

wes225 · 04-12-2008, 10:22 PM

ight so i have someveryvery lame news. my mom wont let me buy a bigger amp. i dont blame though. so im gunna buy some pedals and stuff.

is there any pedals that have a good 5150/tripleRec sound? i mean as in the skull crushing distortion.

i heard that the KranK distortus maximus has almost exact sound of a 5150, but i havnt tried it out.

so any suggestions guys?

Maybe you can get a Peavey Rockmaster preamp, its basically the Ultra Plus head's preamp which the 5150/XXX/JSX are based from.

First and foremost, How much money you looking to spend? Once we get an idea of of your budget, then we can recommend you gear.

what size is the amp you have now?

DONT buy distortion pedals trying to get 5150/dual rec tones - you wont be satisfied. the POD idea will get you the closest, and you can run it through your home stereo for volume.

but waht i'd do is look for a mesa DC-5 or something instead. ballsy metal tone, not a huge amp by any means, easily giggable.

i think for your situation, you'll want some variety of POD and a pair of nice headphones.

Yeah, if a MG10 is too loud, anything with tubes is out of the question. A Pod and a good set of 'phones it is.
