As a fellow Splawn owner, I can totally back Kyle's point that these amps make you play better. Next level note clarity.
My favorite amps of all time! Someone recently said it hits you like a sledgehammer and I agree. The punch and clarity is unreal.
Modded Marshall tone is always music to my ears.
Great video as always Kyle! If I could make a suggestion, I would love to hear a "in-the-room" tone for these amp vids, along with the SM57 setup. I would love to hear how some of these amps "feel" in a room, if that makes sense.
Kyle if you do decide to go this route ^^ you could literally get the behringer rta mic for very cheap, it’s very accurate in response (for price) and is Omni directional. Literally wouldn’t cost you more then like $100 after mic, stand, and xlr hahaha
Rubbish suggestion. It makes it impossible to compare previous amps. Against what We hear on current vids. We mic with the Sure just off the dust cap. Kyle you got it right from the start dude.. That's how we compare... Carry on as is Kyle. Holy shit!!! Are Marshall's just low gain, flubby Splawns?? I see why you love this amp.
@@keolahutchinson7687 the persons idea could easily be implemented without affecting the normal flow of the video with the 57. I wouldn’t just call it rubbish.
@@keolahutchinson7687 I agree - nobody needs the room feel, since that is super subjective.
I agree that Splawn amps demand precise playing. Everytime I have played through a Splawn I felt like a hack guitarist.
Would love to hear that compared to gary Holt modded Marshall
My quickrod sounds better in B tuning than E and it sounds perfect in E.
I can't for the life of me understand why Splawn isn't a better known name.
'He doesn't put much work into promoting the amps...I got a Splawn 100 watt amp and it's the best Hot Rodded JCM800 on the planet, yet everyone wants to buy a Friedman and a Bogner for some strange reason for twice+ the money. People love what others got, especially if they are famous. Splawn hasn't got a Hot Shot like Steve Stevens or Jake E Lee playing the his amps. I am not sure whether he even attends the amp shows anymore.
I’ve been preaching about these amps for like 10yrs now, ever since Karl Sanders (Nile) has been using them as part of his signature tone
Bright, smooth, clear note separation and pick attack with musical midrange 😍. Thanks for showing us this jem! Now i want one 😁
Killer tones! Always wanted a Splawn amp. Note clarity is off the charts without becoming stringy or irritating.
Great as always Kyle
Splawn Quick Rod. Does that Marshall thing better than Marshall does
I need a Splawn in my life. Loving the tone
Super under rated amp. IMO they are not as popular with the "home market' bc of how transparent they are. Very rewarding to a precise strumming hand, punishing to all others.
Just ordered one for myself, in Snakeskin! Thanks for the video!
I’ve got a Quick Rod 50 on order right now. It’s always been a dream amp for me
loved hearing feathers in there :D
For cabinets, the Marshall jvm purple cans with the killer greenback(the 35c) kicks major ass. So does g1265s. Also works great the Jensen neo classics. So damn clear.
Killer video Kyle is was thinking of getting a VHT pittbull cl 100 but to my ears and your demo this Splawn is a kick ass amp I guess you have answered my question really digging your channel thanks for all the killer amp demos.
I had an old Competition KT77 with Heyboer transformer and it did not sound like Quickrod, the frequencies were similar to Quickrod, but response/distortion character was closer to old Nitro with Heyboer, it was meaner, tigher, clearer, while Quickrod was smooth, had more oomph, saturation. I think even Promod was closer to Quickrod than Competition, but maybe that was just some "revision" difference.
BTW. Solo knob can be used to fine tune low end/mid/saturation a little bit even when solo is not engaged, it is a slight change though
Best amp I have ever played in my life.
Hello Kyle, this is a great demo of this amp - thank you for posting this 🙂
Nice video Kyle Iv got the splawn nitro it is unbelievable bro love splawn amps tightest low end amps ever made
Have a 2020 Quickrod 100, fully loaded, and it’s awesome.
that sounds great, I need to check out splawn. There's a supersport combo at a local shop I've been eyeing.
I have that same amp. Sounds great with a boost. I suggest the duality dx.
almost a def Leppard sound with the mid level running high you see you have to line the frequency of each setting up with the last to ride the lightning.startqt zero and build your tone up from zero to ride the lightning so to speak
Also these amps work best with ts9 or even better boutique ratt type pedals as boosts.
This sounds like it's an older model. Later ones have gear 123 plus Od1/od2 for each gear. That's how mine is(kt88 model)
Need more Splawn videos😊!
What speakers in your cab Kyle.. ? killer..I've got a 2007 Quickrod.. The Treble + 0 does open it up quite a bit.. I am having issues with the higher volumes giving me wet blanket effect that only and EQ in the loop can work out.. I may have it looked at.. perhaps a CAP is shot.. ? but it is awesome.. !!!
Well said Kyle and dead on! I have a 2012 quick rod and it is massive! If I'm not mistaken, the 2012's are incredibly aggressive.
I have an 06, the old ones are even more aggressive😊
These amps are different for sure, but once you get used to them they're awesome.
Those are some of the nastiest palm-mutes I've ever heard. 🥲It's so beautiful.
Damn that thing sounds great! It’s crazy, I’ve never heard of Splawn
That’s the perfect modded Marshall sound. Wow.
My favorite after owning 6 different Splawns. 2 Nitro’s, 2 QR’s and 2 Competitions. If you haven’t tried it yet, turn the treble off and dime the mids. It takes on a completely different vibe. Great video!
I have a 2013 Nitro with KT88'S and I absolutely love it, hands down one of the best amps I have ever owned! All the SPLAWNS are amazing.
True!! Long Nitro owner here, also resonance beyond middle for a spongier feeling, and bass turn down for fine tuning. An overdrive for a saggier more easy Marshall vibe maybe.
What's the better 4x12 cab/speaker for Nitro? I hate v30's (too much treble, upper mids) nice with creambacks, g12-65 still too much upper mids. I was thinking on buy an old Marshall jcm800 cab vs orange vs Splawn, EVH... Straight or slant?
I run my Nitro through a orange 4x12 and 2x12 cab 3/4 stack with v30s, plenty of low mids and still sounds nasty.
I just got my quikrod. Best show I've ever played. So easy to dial in
The next amp I want is a Marshall variant. I also am curious about their 412 cabs. I just need a single channel 50 watt variant like this one. Their pricing is excellent too as well🤘
Lyle love that mid crunch of the spawln
that thing sounds incredible !!!!!!!!
Loved splawns since ive learned is Protest the hero’s tone.
Great tones here. I can get my Nitro (which i love) to sound nearly identical to some of them btW
Got my Splawn last month. Great amps.
Great demo, great amp. But personally for your style I preferred the Ceriatone Chupacabra 50. Although those two amps are incredibly similar.
The chupas a monster. I have a Yeti and it's a beast
Used a splawn once in the studio lucky for me i play clean and pick every note no hammerons or at least soft ones the amp was an earthmover ha ha but great amps cheers j watt
Tasty riffs dude
Just got mine in the mail today and all I can say is OMFG….these vids does this amp no justice. I’m playing through a Marshall silver jubilee 4/12 loaded with vintage 30’s. Anyone looking for that GNR tone check out 2nd gear!!!
Damn! Did I just hear you play Leeway (Mark Of The Squealer)! Haven't heard that shit in years. I have a new found respect for you Kyle!
Just ordered a Super Comp 50 directly from Splawn after a year of trying to find a Morin modded 800 or plexi, but no luck. Lead time is currently 8 weeks. Can't wait! Awesome video, Kyle!
Get ready to be happy. I own a SuperSport and a Quickrod. They’ve outlasted Friedmans, Mesas, Marshalls, and Bogners. Just great amps. Unforgiving, but you get why really quickly.
@@LucSulla. What’s the Super Sport?
07:00 badass mid gain crunchy tone
It's basicly a 800 with the extra gain stages
How does this compares with your VHT deliverance series since previously it’s one of your fav top plexi amp?
till now best sound what I heard from your videos ..
I've been using comp 50 mixed with Duel Rec for years now. YEARS
The competition makes your playing like riding on a Rollercoaster. Push it with all the speed you want, you just ram into the rails and your guitar releases percussion galore. You can go to cleanish to brown to modern level saturation with your volume. On second gear. Gear one to me is like a more modern version Ac/DC back in black type tone. Lots more gain but not more fizz. It's like the turbo plexi the 800s were intended to be.
What power tubes are you rocking? The EL34 or KT88?
Kyle,wich do you prefer your QR or competition and why? Thanks
I would love to hear what this would sound like with a HM-2 or LHW. Awesome video though man.
The amp sounds great man ,what about driftwood amps i heard some about them but complaints too as with everything else.
What about the gnr appetite for destruction tone
I like that guitar Kyle very nice man
Can you compare it to Molecular? Are they similar? I have Molecular but i find it to be really dark and Era settings has so much gain, that it's hard to get it to sound tight.
More classic rock, Kyle!
That’s probably the best I think you’ve sounded. You always get good tones but this Splawn sounds like it was just made for you.
I love how raw it is, but it’s still articulate. Just a perfect amp.
Agreed!
@@belligerentamateur thanks for replying! And thanks for covering Splawn so much the last few days. I’ve been wanting one forever.
If you ever get a chance, I’d love to hear how a Landry amp sounds for metal. Bill Landry is a lot like Scott, super nice and makes excellent amps. I’ve just never heard his amps for metal but they seem to get a lot of gain.
Hey Kyle what 2x12 do you like best for live use with the Splawn? I’m looking for something that will keep the chunk and tightness but not lose the low end of my QR without having to use a 4x12.
THANKS!
I want one of these really bad but I just spent 1500 on a Marshall and I can't justify another big amp purchase but God Damn you're making it harder.
Sounds similar to my mesa badlander 50 to me.
Based on your description it sounds like a VHT/Fryette. How would you say they compare? Maybe a video? A deliverance vs nitro and hotrod would be helpful.
That is what I was thinking too. I was going to ask the same question.
Owned a quick rod and have a Pittbull UL. There are definitely similarities in the feel: immediate and not really any bounce or squish, very clear and precise. You flub a note with either....the note just dies. Lol! Tone wise, they are fairly different though. The Fryette/VHT is kind of it's own thing, plus it has the graphic eq. The Splawn is definitely squarely in modded Marshall territory, tonality wise. Actually, another amp I have owned that you could throw in that camp is the Wizard MC2. The Splawn has some similarities there as well, from what I remember.
I'm about to pull the trigger on a new quickrod and I'm torn between el34 and 6550 tubes. I figured you would be the guy to ask given your experience with Splawns.
little squishier with the 34's, tighter with the 6550's
You got me hooked on splawns and honestly now I can’t imagine life without my quickrod. Love that thing. Thanks for changing my life Kyle haha.
Dude you have to find a Hermansson and a wizard . They imo are best super Marshall’s . Not that this video don’t sound good , it does . This video sounds amazing
Sounds killer
i am waiting the Splawn with any Legendary Mod!
Wow, really amazing tones from that Splawn! 🤘🤘
When are we gonna see some Hughes&Kettner stuff? 😉
WOW!!! JUST WOW!!!
Now I wonder what it would sound like with the Mr scary mod 🤔
Great video my friend
11:07 LEEWAY fuck yes
Sounds pretty .... perfect to me !
Absolutely killer
Dang man, gain on full blast gear 1 with that Alice Cooper riff was AWESOMEEEEEE. How do you like the nitro compared to the quickrod??? I first heard of these in 08/09 when killswitch started touring em
He did a whole video on the nitro. He wasnt huge on it.
@@dametalone thanks, I guess I should do more research haha
Holy shit that tone is so articulate
Great video
Thanks!
I have the pro stock - its this, but 100 watts - i absolutely love it, but I have to sell it. cant do the 100 watts anymore.
Gear one sounded like my ideal imagination of a modded plexi almost too gooey but still has definition anymore and it would’ve fell apart sounds like.
First.
And Splawn kicks ass!
Trying to trade one of my Nitro’s for a Quick Rod of any form.
I have one of these on my wishlist. I don't need a clean so my choices are narrowed down to 50 watt or 100 watt
Do you know if Splawn would build a 100 watt Competition????
@@benpotter4905 email them. I think they will
Oh fcuk, the quest to get this has begun.
What's the riff you play at 9:07
Goddamn that amp sound good.
Holy shit balls! Sounds amazing!
Agreed!
I borrowed a 50w Splawn Competition head single channel w/ 3 stage overdrive. It was a 2006...I believe it was the first production run Scott Splawn made. Meanest amp ever! No cleans, not much headroom on this amp...searing distortion with clarity and articulation.
Splawn+Boss OD-1=ECSTACY
Love that amp. Is there a pedal that comes close? I can’t quite afford that amp nor do I play in a band or in front of others. Any advice is welcome.
Instant stank face 2 seconds into the video lol
try out the Fender 25R amp . . . . .before you buy . . .
Ah...caught ya, you snuck in a "classic rock" lead lick in there. ha ha always jokin'
Don’t know if I missed it but what power tubes are in this amp?
EL34B
Thanks. I was looking at their web site and they have multiple options. I was surprised how much I really liked the amp. I’m seriously looking at getting one.
How can I order an amp from Splawn? I want a Competition 50, with EL-84s. I've looked at their site, and it looks like a 90s video game... You got a legitimate number to get in touch with them?
Go to their website .
@@MrCleitus Did you read what I said????
I agree…website is lame
Called myself
He’s very nice guy
When I think of metal amps I don't think of Marshall. I believe you though so I guessi don't know shit lol.
