first of all...
thanks to oasgomez for letting us try his gear. then thanks to arie for making chika with us, and to ate nen for the boutique empanada and creampuffs (hindi talaga ako fan ng empanada pero naiba ang pananaw ko after nung empanada ni ate nen, hehe)
attendance: oasgomez, arie, kulas, psychic_sushi, titser_marco, extreme16199, knightburn.
ang masasabi ko lang...
panget! panget lahat ng gamit ni oasgomez! kasuklam-suklam yung tunog nung diezel, yung two rock? walang kwenta! yung xotic RC boost? bulok! yung teese wah? sablay men! tapon na nya yang mga gamit na yan!!!
tapon nya sa bahay ko, hehehe.
grabe, the whole experience was mindblowing... and ear popping, to say the least. ako hindi naman ako skeptical nung una about the diezel, i'd hope naman na sa price tag na ganon eh sana naman eh maganda yung tunog nung item, hehe. at maganda nga... magandang maganda, hehe.
we used a number of guitars on the setup, my strat (with texas specials), arie's strat & oasgomez's strat (with barenuckles) oasgomez's ESP (with barenuckles din) titser_marco's 355 roadtone, arie's tele.
channel 1, even at low volumes, bilog na bilog yung tunog nya. warm, yet crisp, punchy. parang may natural compression. swabeng swabe.
channel 2, this channel has two settings. yung - at yung +. sa - setting, parang mala-ds1 ang tunog nya. warm overdrive na kaya very subtle just a little amount of dirt, to a full-blown boss-sounding overdrive. sa + setting naman, it really rawks! raw, pure overdrive, growl talaga! just the distortion i've been looking for.
channel 3, this channel is really close to channel 2 on + setting. kaya nga lang, mas smooth ang distortion nya. lagyan mo pa ng mid-scoop and ikaw na si dimebag, hehe. for metal na tugtugan talaga yung channel 3.
sulit talaga yung amp na yun. it's like having 3 1/2 amps rolled into one, hehe. you have to hear it to believe it.
yung two rock cable naman...
we a/b-ed it against a klotz lagrange cable, same length. though i was content with the klotz already, the two rock gave higher output, clearer and more crisp tone. pati yung impact ng pick sa string kuha nya. overdriven, this is where the cable shines, hehe. again, you have to try it to believe it.
yung RC boost... one word... panalo!
yung ts9 ni oasgomez, one name... SRV! hehehe
pero yung empanada and creampuffs ni ate nen... inspiring, heavenly, world class! hehe.
sorry napahaba. basta it was a good experience. i was able to record sound clips with psychic_suchi playing (bro! anlufet mo!) it really couldn't do justice to the real tone of the diezel, pero at least it was a decent recording, medyo hindi lang nya mashado nakayanan ang powers nung diezel, hehe, medyo nagbe-break up na yung mic ng computer ko, hehe. i'll post it when i get the time, hehe.
if you want to hear the amp, go to the may 6 gig sa gweilo's eastwood. gagamitin ni arie yung amp dun.
goodluck nalang sa mga tenga nyo, hehe.
