I have a couple of Peavey MC212 cabs, which are vertical slant-front jobbies. They sound great, and look bigger than a 412 when 'pushed together to make a good one'. :) On occasion, I have used one of these cabs on its side to spread the sound. This has been handy when I've done a three-piece...

Lurch, I love you. We should jam. I play everything from ambient to rip-your-face-off, and the RK does it. Even the Series I combo. Polls are still fun, though... :)

The first Boogie I ever met was a Rectoverb. The guy in the music shop took the opportunity while the amp was warming up to lay the 'Boogie Schpiel' - you know, the one about how Boogies need to be tweaked, how they need to have a tone 'dialled in', how you had to be patient finding your sound...

So, either all ducks are made of wood, or the cabinet of my RK combo is made of compressed duck... :)

Why? Did you just have it recovered in Tolex? :)

I'm thinking that there will be some international wholesalers stuck with old stock. Might be a good time to hit 'em up for a good deal... :wink:

Looks like it's going fast even when it's sitting still, don't it? :)

The Roadster has the front panel features without the rear panel option anxiety, but as Barry said, once you are set, it's that heaven thing... :D

Yep - Got a Road King... Case closed. :D

I have to agree with all of you... The RK is an incredible machine. I'm running a Series I RK 212 combo, and just keep discovering new things to smile about. I have heard a lot of talk about how hard to 'dial in' Boogies can be, but I've yet to have that problem. I turn it on, turn it up, and...

What Parksy said. I'm using a RK Series 1 combo, and I'm having a ball with even the 'pre-LS' clean sounds. Channel 1 Tweed w/6L6's takes me back to my first 'real' amp, a Fender Super Reverb.

:lol:

Me three. Bummer I didn't think of it... :( We did wind up with a couple of cool posters out of it, after stupidity like this: :) Samples of the posters are on my website. I'd post them here, but that would be way too self-indulgent!

We were actually out for a serious photo shoot, but you know... :)

One thing I have found during my brief personal experience with Boogies is that there will always be an option you've overlooked! :? I think they get a cruel pleasure out of the option anxiety they put us through. If you are playing straight-ahead rock stuff, you'd probably be okay with a...

Thanks for sharing all of that, Ryan - glad you're having fun now! Just so you know you're not alone in the "D'oh!" stakes... Years ago (when I was playing rockstars), I walked onstage at the beginning of a gig, all fired up and ready to go... the intro tape was running, the crowd was going...

My Embalmed Squirrel Agrees... :?

I used some 2x12 cabs to record with back in 1990, and liked them that much I tried them live. I haven't used a quad since. The sound is tighter and more articulate, and there isn't a Boogie on the planet that can't make up for lost bottom end. :D My back is a lot happier too, now that I...

Thanks mate. He's a talented guy, I'll give him that. He ships to the US - eight of his awesome polka-dot Flying Vs are heading to American owners in the new year. :) The favourable exchange rates make them very attractive over your way. :wink:

This is a good point. My focus was on the valves, and whether or not they would shake loose if the combo was placed on its front or back during transport. I have been sitting my RK seriesI combo upright in the back seat of my car (no, I don't have a booster seat-hehe). Being a new owner, it may...
