Kirk Hammett’s Randall KH-15 is an INSANE BANG FOR THE BUCK!!

[@palafrem1684]

Your “bang for the buck” videos are always awesome!

[@JohanSegeborn]

Thanks, glad to hear it! Cheers

[@DMSProduktions]

Bang for the duck?

[@torarinvik4920]

These are my favorites as well. And this amp is impressive!

[@guitarocd9984]

In the 80s and 90s I used a RG 80 Randall exclusively. I bought it in 83 because it was inexpensive. I played it for 20 years because it sounded great. I hope someday you can find one of them and demo it. My friend used to borrow it and at his gigs he would put it behind his Marshall stack.

[@guitarocd9984]

The lab series were great. I'd like to see him demo one of those to. I'm not sure if he has.

[@guitarocd9984]

The difference between the old solid state amps and the new ones is you could gig with the old ones. The new ones are basically for home use.

[@jeremybearden444]

I love it when big sound comes out of small amps. Great featuring, Johan.

[@JohanSegeborn]

Thanks Jeremy!

[@charlesrocks]

That era of Randall 2010 - 2017 is all bang for the buck

[@RasCuban33]

We have one of these out of box at the store I work at and was actually thinking of cutting in down into a head, getting rid of the stock speaker. Now after watching, I think I’m going to grab it. Thanks for the demo video!

[@madmod]

I picked up one of these for next to nothing. I wired a 1/4 inch jack into it and have used it on my 4x12 with great success. I love it.

[@RasCuban33]

@@madmod I ended up grabbing and turning it into a head. Love it to pieces as well👍🏽🎸.

[@madmod]

@@RasCuban33 Thats excellent! They are gems. They are starting to go for more money nowadays.

[@jcoulter43]

Nails Kirk's tone from that era. Really opens up thru the bigger cab. Another hidden gem. God bless and rock on 😎🎸👍

[@JohanSegeborn]

Thanks J! Cheers!

[@NoCantsAllowed]

Never would've expected that little thing to push such good tone thru a marshall

[@tonedriverss8629]

Killer power and clarity ! What a little beast . This thing chuggs , as Ola would say ! Love that tightness and articulation . I am not biased , but I've played some snakeskin Randall 1x12 combo back in the 90's , I found killer . I have a Randall 1x12 RG75 combo at this time which is quite impressive as well . Superior build quality from Randall . Your playing and sound in this video is really superb ! I might just go take out my RG75 Randall from the back office and rock out with it tonite : )

[@JohanSegeborn]

Thanks!

[@vintagetone22]

Greating to the king of the blues johan.amazing video and that amp is top.

[@JohanSegeborn]

Thanks man!

[@MrIkesimba]

The primary lesson from this channel is that there are great sounds in nearly everything, you just have to have an open mind and look for them.

[@heitorkajioka]

In this case the amp just needed bigger speakers. The stock one is very small and way too bright with no bass.

Such a killer sound from a small amp. I want one someday.

[@victorjbarker]

Sounds awesome. Great tones and playing as usual. Rock on man! 🤘🏽🔥

[@JohanSegeborn]

Thanks Victor, rock on!

[@NPGANDERSSON]

It sounds great through that cab! I remembered this as an awful amp as I've only heard it through the built in speaker... Very well done as always, Johan. Cheers!

[@JohanSegeborn]

Glad to hear it, Cheers!

[@madmod]

Hey I bought this and ran it into a peavey 4x12 on video. The stock bad dog speaker is pretty crappy but the amp sounds fantastic! Thanks for uploading!!

[@JohanSegeborn]

Thanks!

[@monsterkxf]

Nice clean crunch! Randall had some great sounding amps back in the day. Awesome dude!! 🤘🤘

Hi Johan i always like your videos very informative, btw i once had a Randall KH120 sounds similar like KH15 unfortunately i sell it😅, did you know marshall or fender series have clean sound similar like Randall KH15?

[@siegfriedwashburn3484]

Hi, Johan! I can't believe to my eyes: that little one sounds like a full stock! Must be fun with Dean and Washburn! Dimebag is like a shadow in my ear.)) Have a nice weekend! See you! Zigfrid

[@JohanSegeborn]

Have a great weekend you too man! See you!

[@austinbryan6371]

Any way you could use the headphone out with a ‘TRS to dual TS cable’ to do the same thing in terms of running it through a cabinet? Or using the amp as an effect through another amplifier?

[@michaelmitchell5909]

Awesome little amp, i know my next practice amp...they need to make that into a head.....or do they?

[@JohanSegeborn]

I don’t know actually

[@dubster82]

Nice one! My other amp is the KH103 designed by Mike Fortin. You should try it, I think you'd like it. 😊 120w tube amp (I've 2 6L6 and 2 EL34 in mine). CH1 is 60's Fender and does clean great, ch2 is a Marshall circuit I think with many tonal options.

[@JohanSegeborn]

Thanks! Yeah now I wanna play more Randall amps. I was really impressed by this one

[@santrixhimself3679]

Yeah these small combos often sound good through 'real' speakers.

[@madmod]

Ive pretty much resorted in using it as a head. Im still debating cutting the cab open for a 8 inch speaker, or just opt for a Jensen mod 8 ohm speaker upgrade. The 6.5 inch is fine for cleans but under gain, it cant hold its own.

[@byronlaird5116]

Aw yeah! I have a similar mini-Randall = RG15XM. Pretty sure 'XM' means Xtra Metal, cuz that's what my little amp does best !! Even tho it only has a 6" speaker, the ported baffle helps to make it sound much bigger. Doesn't have a speaker-out jack like Kirk's model. Found mine at a local antique/junk store, paid $35.

[@JohanSegeborn]

Hi! The Kirk model doesn’t have a speaker out jack either. I used the the internal speaker wires here

[@byronlaird5116]

@@JohanSegeborn Oh, got it. Cheers Johan !!

[@vincenzoerriquenz2356]

Great sound as usual Johan! How do you phisically connect the amp to the speaker cabinet since It has no external speaker output?I would like to to the same With my Orange Crush 12! Thanks!

[@JohanSegeborn]

Thanks Vincenzo, you can see speaker jack I’m using in the beginning of the video. Cheers

[@vincenzoerriquenz2356]

@@JohanSegeborn oh yes, the Jack on top of the speaker' s back, thank you!

[@marksguitars5617]

good little amp! Did you add a speaker out jack? I remember a lot of small amps like these and people would add a speaker out jack and crank them through a 4x12 like the Fender Sidekick or Gorilla amps. This KH15 sounds great, thanks for sharing, nice riffing, Johan, stay safe

[@JohanSegeborn]

Thanks man, yeah you can see the jack in the intro. Cheers

[@marksguitars5617]

@@JohanSegeborn yep see it now, was too busy watching you, haha

[@cameronlaing2829]

How have you connected the cab to the cab?

[@notgnar8506]

What wha pedal is that you're playing? I'm asking because it seems to be invisible.

[@cbrindle91]

I had one of those back a few years. The stock 8" speaker makes it sound like shit. I had a broken marshall mg combo and ended up taking the kh and retrofitting it into the marshall combo shell to give it a 12" speaker to go through. Overall not a bad amp.

[@jimmychesteen6559]

I had an rg20 wth the Proco rat running into the front end, I would put it up on the couch with the back of the amp up against the back of the seat... it was an open back amp and it would thump like a 4×12, sold the amp and pedal for 50 bucks,...regrets...

[@bolerkins]

Now this amp just doubled in price !!

[@JohanSegeborn]

;-)

[@aaaargl]

Is there a possibility to hook it up to a 4x12? The little Speaker is most often the limiting factor to these little ones. Would be great so see/hear

[@JohanSegeborn]

Thanks brother, it’s a half step down now but would indeed benefit from lower tuning. Cheers

[@riffafrank]

Wait till you tried the KH75, it's one hell of an amp.

[@JF-em6hr]

Box of bee's. Too much fizz, not enought growl. Thanks though. I wish they came out with a "tremolo"/distortion pedal where you could change the time rate of the clean/distortion coming through. The "tremolo" part would swell the distortion in and out without affecting the overall volume. I guess it would have to be a fast "tremolo", to make it sound like it's actually effecting the rate of the clipping. I want to get a "slow gargle" sound out of the distortion. (No fizz).

[@JohanSegeborn]

I actually like the sound to be a bit “fizzy”, it comes through better in the mix then. You can use the amp EQ to take away

[@JF-em6hr]

@@JohanSegeborn Yep, I understand. To each his own. I figured that since you like Kiss.

[@JMPJackGuitar]

I love Randall amps. I have an old '87 RG100ES. Check it out: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nKXdppybn8aDZ6c You should try the old RG series if you find one. They're a killer amps!

Dear Johan, as a huge Metallica fan I have to say: Great video and interesting amp-cab-combination. As a fan of yours I have to ask: Can it sound like a plexi? 😉 Have great weekend! 🤘😁
