Get this one! Seriously! Synergy Bogner Ecstasy Module

[@SilentNightBodomNight]

This gives me a raging bogner

[@dantahoua]

Waou! The XTC is my main amp for 20 years and what I ear here is amazing!

[@charlesrocks]

Incredible sounds. I’m in love with this System

[@sansocie]

No bad notes! Just texture rythm and tone. One of the best demos I have heard. Nice

[@aaronshortmusic]

Mine arrives tomorrow!

[@johnwebb2562]

Henning you put Santana to shame with such incredible sounds, with the help of Reinhold, and the top class guitars that you're playing. Best wishes .John.

[@JRP3music]

I want to hear the Syn -2 through different power amps like: Matrix, MosValve, Mesa 2:90, and VHT. I am interested in the Soldano and Bogner Ecstacy modules.

[@Robstafarian]

The Synergy Syn5050 was designed by Steve Fryette, and there are plenty of Syn2 demos which use it.

[@jonathanstubbsguitar5340]

Robstafarian that’s interesting, I was all set on getting the 50watt head but now I’m thinking maybe the power amp syn2 combo!

[@xPanDaemonx]

damn. the tones in the intro jam is really really good

[@bobdorothy9719]

U are definitely underated as a guitarist, love the blues lines man!! Bogner really accents your playing!!

[@michaelmervin632]

Great video I just got the sy2, Bogner uberschall & Engl powerball modules Unfortunately you’ve made want to add Bogner Xtacy and possibly the Vai module to my colección

[@prestige35able]

Wow henning some of your best playing, very nice!

[@hybrydsanity5857]

Very interesting direction I'm thinking about the Bogner Ecstasy and the Engl Powerball modules that should be plenty of tones if using it with their midi switcher and having 4 channels under foot . I messaged them to see if it works with an old amp I have lying around named the Randall RM100 1st module style amp that would be a nice easier start, it has 3 slots if not then I'll have to decide about a head or the dual rack system . All in All it seems like a nice medium between the amp model world and carrying around these monster heads. thanks good to hear about it

[@OfficialPerfectoDeCastro]

Want. Now

[@EytschPi42]

it is truly amazing... the tone just oozes out of that one!

[@kevinedwards2067]

Damn, Henning, why don't u sell some of those guitars jams as mp3 downloads for charity causes? You play so well, very Vai's, Joe Satch, Gary Moorish, think about it? Great guitar player?

[@MusicTherapyLaz]

Oh...the tones....tones for miles and miles...that Bogner Synergy amp module sounds amazing! Definitely inspired you to play and play and play...though I have to admit my favorite part is in the beginning clip... the one where Sammy Boller is rocking out with you tied up to your chair by Dave Friedman! 😂😜 Classic...love you man! Dude...it's finally dawned on me...you're the Benny Hill of the KZbin Guitar Gear Nerd World! Some day I will have a Synergy system amp setup in my studio room! 😎🎸🐦🤘

So will we see sped up footage of him chasing Leslie ( in a bathing suit) around the house? 😂🤘🏽

[@kylecoffey6010]

Another excellent vid Henning! I love the sh@t eating grin at 26:02 expression - I think that says it all! I love it! \m/

[@adriancummings3625]

Henning your playing is schon the tone of the synergy pre amps is awesome

[@backinblack2817]

Killer tones from that preamp and great vid! Yes, Synergy is doing a lot of work on the preamps but what about the power amp sections? Is there any EL34s on the horizon? What about something in the 1 to 20W range for home/studio use Mr Synergy (aka Bogner Atma)?

[@Surfandmusicequipmentreviews]

Great playing henning. You really have become a good guitarist over the years! (Compared to your early videos, this playing was lovely, just sublime mate) Convinced me to order the Bogner Ecstasy module ! Looking forward to hearing it in the flesh. Given your experience with Bogner, what would be your go to settings for ac dc style classic rock - i assume blue channell (what did you find worked best in terms of pre eq and schizo switch settings?)

[@Robstafarian]

It would have been nice to hear how the Schizo switch affected dynamics throughout the Blue channel's gain range (which, of course, could have been demonstrated using guitar controls instead of said channel's gain control). When it comes time for you to demo the Synergy Fryette Deliverance module, which I anticipate more eagerly than I probably should, I hope you will read the Deliverance's manual (meaning the head's manual) and possibly email Steve in order to understand the significance of its dual gain controls with regard to dynamics.

[@danimolina08]

That module sounds great!

[@Steven_SK]

Oh my that Shabot! I come for reviews but mostly to hear you play.

[@kronosecw]

Vai obviously used to use this amp. How does his module compare to this one? I never felt like Vai improved his tone after he quit using Bogner. Felt the same way when Satch quit using the Marshall 6100 to goto his awful signature amp

[@kellyjackson7889]

It's well known Satch just ran his Boss DS-1 into the clean channel of the 6100 lol

[@jaumebosca2566]

WHAT A JAM! WHAT A JAM! WOOOOOOOOOOO! Amazing, Henning! (Do more jams, please!!)

[@judgeholden4208]

Inspired playing on the introtrack. The video could have ended there and the product would have been adequately promoted. Of course, not to say that the rest of the video also didn't do it justice. Great job HP. Love those Shabat guitars too. Amazing trend of boutique Israeli guitar builders in recent times. Also well supported by HP42!

[@frankiecstrat]

Greetings from NY! Great demo Henning and may i add great playing sir! :)

[@keithhatfield2119]

The lead sound in the beginning of the video are fabulous!!! You sold me on the module, and I noticed towards the end of the video that you kept reaching up and engaging/disengaging an effects unit on the top of the UA OX. When engaged it was one of the best combination of tones that I have been looking for. I tried to figure out what it was, but couldn't see it well enough. A few hours later, I pulled Dan and Mick on The Pedal Show. Dan had an Echo Fix EF-X2 Tape Echo that he had purchased and was raving over. Can you verify that this is what you sere using for your delay?

[@EytschPi42]

nope, just the built in effects of the OX, I merely used a foot switch to turn them on

[@dukey558]

Awesome..your play really touches emotionally..Tones are warm and rather bluesy compared to the hair metals of Uberschall. Please kindly tell us tonal differences .

[@nicovo9237]

Is there any chance of you doing a comparison of the the different t-style Harley Bentons? I have especially been looking at the TE-90FLT, the TE-80 NT and the TE-90QM P90 version but i haven't heard any comparisons, with good sound quality, of the two guitars after the roswell change.

[@andrewbettis4247]

Sounds awesome great demo well done... I don't own a synergy system but I wonder how distinct these boutique modules are from each other? you've got Freidman, Bogner and now soldano and they all kind of have their own version of what a souped up Marshall is... I wonder if there's a module out there that can mimic the pre amp of say a dual rectifier(?) something more modern and saturated sounding...? Cheers

[@EytschPi42]

the Dual Rectifier preamp is IDENTICAL to the Soldano preamp.... so its easy... just buy the Soldano.

[@AnAmericanGuitarist]

Marshall really dropped the ball. I used the JMP-1 with Marshall 9200 dual mono block power amp for almost 20 years, long after they discontinued it. I miss that rig. I wanted more gain and went with a JVM410HJS, but I really loved the rack setup. Marshall should have developed a JMP2 and JMP3 and kept going. The module idea is great too and they could have done that, but instead of building on what they mastered so long ago, they just stopped. I am thinking about replacing the JVM410HJS with a Synergy rig. I'd need to drive a few hours to try a Synergy rig out though.

[@andrewjackson9654]

C classic V vintage M modern?

[@RonynLoneWolf]

If it has Bogner on it, you really can't go wrong.

[@RonynLoneWolf]

@Tommy Spaargaren I've had great success with mine to be honest but each to their own lol

[@louderthangod]

Ed Berger You don’t think they compare well to other amps in that price range or are you just against anything in that price range?

[@roscoepcoltrane23]

Getting one. Maybe the BE or the Bogner definitely the OS.

[@gtrslinger6262]

Great video! What delay did you use on intro? Thank you and keep rocking!

[@GlenHyden]

So the Carl Martin is for sale? If you had to pick just one amp?

[@hawg427]

Which Bogner module has more gain, the Ubershall or the Extasy module? Great video BTW.

[@evandijk1983]

Man I really dig that guitar u started with which brand P90 are in that guitar?

[@L.Scott_Music]

Henning, my dear Henning, won't you please join me to convince Synergy to make a rack mount plate for storing Synergy Modules? Basically the faceplate to a Syn2 without the holes for the knobs and switches, jus the module cutouts and tapped screw holes. That way a DIY module storage solution is readily available and adaptable.

[@rockybalboa2526]

Hey, I just saw this video, im familiar with your channel, BUT this is the first time you literally had my full attention for the first 3 mins of your playing with the jaguar, p-90s and the blue channel! : 0 BEAUTIFUL! ITS LITTERALLY TOUCHED MY HEART! BEAUTIFUL PLAYING, TIMING, PHRASING, IT WAS THE BEST I HAVE HEARD YOU ( and out of MANY other people ) I HAVE HEARD IN AWHILE.... YOU NEED TO MAKE YOUR OWN INSTRUMENTAL RECORD! Take a break from collecting and reviewing everyone elses equipment, and music.. AND START WORKING ON YOUR OWN SOUND AND MUSIC TO SHARE WITH THE WORLD. And saying you wished you be like stave vai and everyone else.. You have the same talents and abilities as all the other musicians. What separates everyone when it does, is their individual uniqueness! And you have yours too!! start living from INSIDE OUT instead of OUTSIDE IN!! : / And confuscious say: He who go to bed with itchy asshole? wakes up with stinky finger! : P

[@EytschPi42]

thanks for the praise... I don’t need to start working on my music... I have many internationally released albums... check the last link in the description under the video.

[@rockybalboa2526]

@@EytschPi42 OH Really? : / I didnt know that. I will look into your music. Im happy to hear that you are making your own music. You should be. Thank you for letting me know..

[@rockybalboa2526]

And it wasnt " praise" ... It was a compliment. There is a difference..

[@JoeHeisler]

FYI Henning there are two internal switches under the metal plate which change the sound of this module, do you know how yours was set for this vid? This makes it harder to decide which module I want next (only have the Vai module right now), this may be my next module though. Also, I was wondering if you thought any of these modules could do an SRV-like tone? I know SRV did like a Dumble SSS and a Marshall Master at some point and before that he had his fenders.

[@EytschPi42]

The switch was set in the stock position... I never fiddle with those

[@JoeHeisler]

EytschPi42 Okay thanks! Also to clear up any confusion, I’m talking about two switches that no other modules have (not the standard cathode or dual/single switches), I saw them in the manual. There’s an AIR switch which adds gain and expands the frequency range and a mode switch to switch between 100b and 101b tones.

[@skydonut]

Really shocked at your play and the tunes of soloing for emotional blues and balad. So shy of myself and blame me that my miss judgement and estimation on you by only outlook and behaviors in videos thus far I have seen. As always awesome and so much informative.

[@hangtite87]

Nice pickin!

[@kimblez]

this would have been better with a miced cab

[@EytschPi42]

that’s just not correct

[@kimblez]

@@EytschPi42 watch this video --- it is a miced cab it sounds like hanging out in the room with some one playing guitar.I think you are an awesome guitar player , but too many you tubers are using IRs to test amps and it is not a real experience ,it makes them sound like plastic and is a let down .Nothing against you man ,you are great (see videos below) kzbin.info/www/bejne/haecdn-Kr9KbrdU&ab_channel=GuitarBrosDemos or this kzbin.info/www/bejne/eJLcfp-EjdiBZpI&ab_channel=OlaEnglund

[@EytschPi42]

I have done tests and when so mike a cab and do it well, the sound I am getting is exactly like the one I get with the Ox... the Ox has great room tone. I’ve gone down that road and a close mikes cab is easy to get right with an Ox or a Torpedo. Ola could get the exact same sounds with a Torpedo of he wanted to. Trust me, I‘ve done those videos and I‘ve done my tests. A cab will have to be pushed in the room to cobsiderable volume to sound good. I would damage my hearing and lose the ability to do my job.

[@kimblez]

@@EytschPi42 i get it ,thanks for the awesome reply . I mentioned it to other youtubers also ,people will do what works for them . The Ola video I linked is a bit extreme ... but ya man it does show what the amp would do in a real situation which is super valuable to know, maybe play around with a miced cab in another room? If I was an amp designer and spent my days on earth perfecting an amp circuit like Mike Soldano / Fryette etc I would be really bummed out that the demo of my work was put through a digital simulator to show the world my product ... It is kinda like demoing a mix for someone as a MP3 to demonstrate your sonic mixing abilities ...it works but not really the ideal ....you are awesome man I love your content ....there are some youtuber channel though I had to quit watching cause they just use IRs on all their demos and it creates this kinda 'sameness ' sound where most amps all kinda sound the same because they are going through the same digital plastic filter right at the end of the signal chain -thanks for taking the time to read my rant -peace

[@paulsguitarstudio126]

You know sometimes your playing is just marvelous, those lead lines and phrases, masterful; other times when you start that strumming crap, god knows what, makes me want to punch you. Also for the love of god man, you get free gear and get paid, when you do not know what something is or does, I mean really....V, C, M, Vintage 60s, Classic, 70s, Modern 80s gain structure. By the way of all the videos I have heard on Synergy, they truly do not capture how marvelous this stuff is. They all sound different and they all sound amazing! I just started my Synergy rig with the Fryette Pitbull and this Bogner, MOG do they sound great! Oh yeah, the only thing I hate worse than a headless guitar are those that play them....and I don't care who does, they suck and they look weird! Have you been punched in the face for playing one and strumming crap? Wait for it....

[@paulsguitarstudio126]

Almost forgot, Paul, for the love of any god, please DON"T SING!!! Other than those few points, your stuff is usually great sounding and funny, "that's what she said".
