[@techdeathhippie6319]

I use it with my Warhead cab . Actually you saw it in reddit . You got to try it . I then boost with ts9

[@joeylizotte7537]

I found that the lower you're tuned, the higher the Sweep knob needs to be. Since I'm mostly in "drop B", I keep it pretty low.. but I also use the same speakers as the Satan cab.

[@techdeathhippie6319]

@@joeylizotte7537 I have sweep almost all the way up . I play 8 string . What I don’t understand is why the channel volume needs all the way up to be full and sound normal . I wonder if that was a production flaw they notice after manufacturing of the amp

[@doocies]

That amp is much more versatile than most people would think. Even for a non metal player that amp plenty of tones that rival many non metal amps

@@ben156 Yes! The Satan is actually one of the best Chinese built amps but that's because Mike Fortin was on watch during this production.

[@johnsiggers1682]

Brutal stuff dude!

[@Lukasz_KLAT]

The uniqueness of this amp is that it's a middle ground between solidstate and tube amp. It has a character of a tube amp pushed with modified RAT. Imagine a solidstate amp that can actually plays great lead tone and open chords. That's Satan amp. A bass player will love you too, this amps gives a headroom for bass player to fill in and shine. A lot of bedroom players sold it as it's not that bass heavy as dual rectifier and doesn't give that air pump kick in the chest effect, but this amp sounds so good in a mix, especially for 7 string death metal. Test it with passive pickups too, imo this amps sounds so much better with them.

[@andreslefttesticle]

It is also INSANELY tight

[@guitarrilho502]

Good to hear some different riffs being played through a Satan

[@techdeathhippie6319]

Dude I must THANK YOU ! I have a amp head collection . And must Satan seemed so thin . I was selling it the day I saw you post this video and say you read the manual . Learning the channel volume must be at 3 o click or more changed the whole game for this amp and me . I found it thin. Not now . They must have messed up in production and figured it out and kept the odd feature. But I kept the amp lol

[@richardburton7943]

Sounds great

[@Allen7]

oh man...the sound is so f+n amazing and brutal

[@ManuSDP]

I’m the opposite of the commenters that say to play clean and stuff. The thing I don’t like about modern metal tones is the lack of gain. But my styles of tones are 90’s solid state overblown guitars so yeah….to each their own. I just would like to hear the amp with gain on full lol

[@jorge0358]

To be fair tho, the lack of gain can be intentional for stuff that’s more technical and require precise playing, but I agree the more gain the more crushing the tone

[@yurimodin7333]

Dime tone is the only tone.

[@TaylorDanley]

Yeah it’s interesting how the trend seems to be less gain in extreme metal lately. I think like most things there’s probably a balance, but if I had to guess it will swing the other way in a few years where people start going ham on the gain again

[@chambermusicstudios7042]

I am in the exact same boat. Dial back the gain and you supposedly get clarity when in reality you have a guitar sound with less balls

This is a cool channel, you are a great guitarist so that makes it more enjoyable. I've seen a few other channels where the guitarists are playing the same riffs over and over or just chugs, it gets boring.

[@Steadybeheady]

Couple years ago this amp was at the top of my list. The sounds you got out of it here show why lol Any chance of a dirty tree vs pentademon comparison? Fully agree with the artwork preference, especially in the red w/black.

[@TaylorDanley]

Possibly, but they should be exactly the same… I don’t actually know if Shea is going to keep making the pentademon or update it though 🤔

[@Steadybeheady]

@@TaylorDanley this is true, though I saw somewhere a claim that the DT was slightly different and more to the commenters preference. Though, I’ll bet someone will claim active pups with Energizer have rolled highs compared to Duracell. This is a wonder of mine too, especially with the unveiling of the Flesh Rot V2 as of late!

[@TaylorDanley]

@@Steadybeheady 🤣🤣 yeah there’s always going to be those people. Maybe pepers has had revisions since they made it, but I believe the only difference is Pepers has the switch for the tc circuit on the outside, and the pentademons switch is on the inside. I can’t remember for sure though..

Amazing video as usual 🤩🤘🏻 !! I would really love to see you trying for us the Boss IR-200. I just bought one and I am blown away. It has only one high gain amp (Bogner Überschall) but the way it reacts to IRs is just incredible. I have never experienced this with Line6, Ampero, NUX, Neural DSP and others. I have loaded IRs from the Kristian Kohle Rainbows and Chainsaws pack and IRs from STL tones Libra. I am in love with every IR I am playing which is usually not the case. I don't know which magic they used but I feel like I have plenty of usable killer guitar tones with just one head. There is already a demo from Rabea but it would really rock if we would have something from you !!! Keep on Rockin and cheers from Germany !!!

Had this amp when they were everywhere on guitar center for 1500 before Ola blew up on youtube.... preferred the Archon & Savage 120 over it all day without any boosts. Oh yeah that Randall Satan blew a 30 cent capacitor that took out a 450$ transformer... my mesa certified tech replaced it & eliminatd the remaining capacitors that weren't even needed. There were 4, one of which blew... for some reason they are in the design but serve no real purpose. Amp done great after that, then I bought a savage & sent it packing 2 weeks later 🤙

[@imthekeeperofthecheese5579]

Cool shirt.

[@InTheSh8]

Great, is there any Amp you wouldn't switch pedals in front? Just curious. I do it, too.

[@TaylorDanley]

No probably not. I think when people are like “that amp doesn’t need a boost” they don’t understand why you are using a boost… I’m not trying to add gain, I’m adding that aggression you get by hitting the front of an amp with a hot signal. It’s more percussive compressed and aggressive sounding. Typically I’ll actually dial the gain in the amp back to compensate for any gain introduced by the pedal.

What are some good metal/death metal 12in speakers to install in a 4x12 cabinet to go along with a sick amp

[@mattcat5668]

Nice man, consider swapping preamp tubes! I got a 50 watt Diavlo and it's just a monster. I think the tubes in these type of Randall's make a big difference to the gain and tone you get. Mine had some JJs in it when I got it. I swapped out the preamp tubes with some Mullard ax7s and it definitely increases the amount of gain you can dial in with these amps. Enough no boost needed. With the JJs in there it was fizzy and lacked any balls

The (crazy amount of) string buzz audible through this amp reminds me of Sinister's 1995 "Hate" album... which proves, it's not necessarily a bad thing, if used right.

[@TAdamRox]

Hell yeah, it adds a very aggressive texture🤘

[@barrygomez5968]

Im hearing this clicking noise during the palm mutes. Is that what you mean?

[@MiroslawBlazek-Gdansk]

​@@barrygomez5968 No, string buzz is... the buzzing of the the strings, which normally occurs only when you hit the strings too hard or if the truss rod is improperly set up, or if the frets need some grinding. Here, it is audible throughout the whole video (and when boosted, at 7:09 time mark onward, it gets quite extreme), which means that too much of the upper mids and treble from the guitar is getting into the overdriving stages of the preamp. In fact, it's so sharp and distinct that I'm sure this region is heavily boosted in the amp, without any significant low-pass filtering in the high gain channel. Some may like the tone, I'm not a fan of it.

[@paulanderson771]

Yeah, I don't know if his strings are too big for the nut or what's going on with the setup but I definitely hear it and yes, it is a bad thing. lol
