Road King I & II - Video Samples

[Bruceta]

Hi friends!
Here are some samples of myself playing RK I & RK II

Some of you may have already seen a couple of those, but I added some live on stage with Vodu, my band www.voduband.com


I used in all the videos only the amplifier gain.
In all videos but the last, I hooked up the RK to a Boss GT-8 via 4-cable connection.

Thank you guys!

so what do you think between the two, do the distortion channels sound the same? Which do you like better?

I like the RK II better.

Ch3 and Ch4 are similar on both RK I and RK II. Ch4 is a little darker on RK II though.

Ch1 and Ch2 sound way better and louder on the RK II.

Hi Bruceta,

Is the Road King better than the Stiletto?

sir

PS: your song "Final Conflict" rocks!

 

[Bruceta]

Hi sir!
Thank you for the compliment!

I prefer the Road King over the Stiletto. I think it is more versatile and has a much more beautiful overdriven sound. It weights a ton though...

RK's sound awesome. Nice playing too!

Lonestar vs RKII cleans. Are they really that different?

Thank you very much, MetalMatt!

Ls and RK II cleans are very comparable. I don't feel they are exactly the same, however for a high gain amp those RK II cleans are unbeatable.

I'll be brutally honest...I sold my RK II Combo to buy a LSC Head & Cab...and have to say that the LSC cleans on the RK II sound better to me than the actual LSC itself..........

I am truly missing the versatility of the RK II -- especially Chan 1 Tweed Mode.
I should have bought the RK II Head/Cab vs the combo

On the RK II I never had the "too much bass" issue as I am dealing with on the LSC...

Yes, I am convinced that the RK II cleans are actually better than the LSC it emulates :shock:
