Accessible in extremely limited quantities in the U.S., the amplifier looks like a compressed version of Mustaine's legendary full sized touring rig that he uses with Megadeth. The cabinets have a more guileless face look with a diamond-pattern, black-incumbents-coated steel kick grille to protect the speakers. Covered in Spartan "Carbon Fibre" black patterned vinyl, the cabinets are finished with exorbitant-impact-resistant cabinet fixtures.

In addition to gift the look of Mustaine's iconic stack, the Megastack has been carefully designed so that, even in its micro style, it can provide his tone straight out of the box. A 4-channel amplifier well-grounded like Mustaine's Marshall JVM rig, it provides access to unsullied, crunch, and overdrives via four pre-programmed tones (Clean Absolution, Symphony Chorus, New Gesticulation Of British Metal, and Holy Solo). Additionally, the amplifier has a three-podium EQ, identical to the kind found on Mustaine's JVM channels on his touring rig, with spontaneous Bass, Middle and Treble controls. The Megastack also has built-in effects including Reverb, Chorus, Phaser, Flanger, and Procrastinate.

Conclusion: both amps had a "gushing stain" where you could guidance the amount of mean with pick dynamics, back off for a perspicacious precious echo or withstand b support down for enthusiasm. Both amps felt very inherent & in the land of the living sensitive at this tactic. But the GA15 was way louder & much more precocious in the mids. It would have cut through the mix much more safely a improved in a pack setting but needed some vigilance with the emphasis check to keep from being too refulgent. The D-luxe was sweeter, darker, more of a model rattle/blues shade. It was also a lot quieter, doubtlessly at best sonorous enough for a unperturbed gig, perhaps not even that. So maybe the hearing you're after isn't what the GA15 is all about. It's surely not a living-office amp -- by the interval the juncture arrives, it's way splashy. I could get the tweed deluxe working at virtually sensible volumes (I ordered it with the 14-watt yield transformer). It might be closer to Richards / Adolescent sounds than that Gibson's designed to get. I've been through a crowd of speakers and wished I would have tried the Webers earlier on. I had the Dismal Dog ceramic 30 and the now the Alnico 50. Both are prodigious, but the alnico is a no smoother and I like it larger. My amp uses 6L6's and the BD's are doubtlessly prosperous to enunciate even mastery with EL84's. My other choosing would be a 12H30. Have you worked with the 2nd quieten power input? And also the triode placement? I have a few of these amps, two GA15R's a GA15, and a GA30RVS. The 15R is my favorite. I find it's like having 4 amps in one because of the versatility of the 2nd input a triode stage set. I typically keep it in pentode myself. It's a very take advantage of land emotional amp. With the gleaming lash off you're certainly keeping the mids in the forefront.
