Question:

Does anyone own a Randall RG100 stack or halfstack, and how does it sound? Can the distortion on it get very heavy and similar to metallica or pantera? What guitars do you use on it too btw.  Thanks to anyone who can help.

Response:

I like mine a lot, it sounds very much like an early metallica or maiden sound. Plenty of gain/sustain for me but if you want dimebag you’ll need more front end. I use mainly Les Pauls and Flying V’s…

I have an older RG100ES head running into a celestion equiped, closed back 4X12 cabinet and I have never had a problem getting Metallica sounding results.  I also use a Boss GE-7 running through the effects loop.  I have used the amp with a Gibson SG, Flying V, Les Paul and a Hamer California Custom.  All of them have had nice heavy results through the amp.   – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text – > Does anyone own a Randall RG100 stack or halfstack, and how does it sound? > Can the distortion on it get very heavy and similar to metallica or pantera? > What guitars do you use on it too btw.  Thanks to anyone who can help.
