  • @toriandicapmond161
    @toriandicapmond161 Рік тому +4

    If you want to know the tube compliment in this particular Cobra (these amps are very tube type sensitive) it has a Genelex NOS 12ax7 in the V1 position, and JJ Tesla 12ax7's in the remaining preamp positions. The power amp has JJ Tesla El34's. Sounds incredible!

  • @trevorphilips9484
    @trevorphilips9484 Рік тому +4

    That tone is amazing. I had a Dragon I loved, I wish I never sold it.
    Cobras are absolute kings of tone, I think they still wipe the floor with half of the boutique amp company offerings you get nowadays.
    I'd choose a Framus Cobra over so many modern companies, despite the reliability issues after lengthy single periods of use.

    I agree with the overdrive comments. This needs a decent drive pedal in front of it and a gate. Would be absolutely killer! Also - FYI I have the matching 4x12 cab for sale if you or anyone is interested. Four 25 Watt Greenback Speakers, same metal tarnishes on the grille.

    Everybody always says that Killswitch Engage made these possible. I don't ever remember them playing them, they used Framus Dragon's. Very different sounding head/cab than the Cobra setup. Ken Susi from Unearth used these. He says that they are one of the best sounding amps, but that he never could keep his reliable for touring. He has it in his studio now and says it rocks when stationary. He was constantly having repair issues for it when attempting to tour with it.
    Cobra cabs are awesome too. They come with Celestion Greenbacks instead of the Dragon's v30 speakers.

      @@RobArnoldWorld Thanks for another great video. I always loved your guitar tone/style. It probably subconsciously became a lot of how I play today. I could be wrong on the history of these, but that is how I remember it. At one point for a short while, I had a dragon half stack and even a framus combo. They were both good deals, but I ultimately liked a dirtier gain and were very hard to sell because nobody knew who/what they were. I've always wanted a Cobra though. I've been lucky enough to play some really cool heads however brief.

    I’d kill for a Framus Dragon. Old school Napalm Death. One of my favourite guitar tones ever. Near impossible to find these days. Finding any Framus (at least in North America) is fucking rare.
    But seriously, listen to “Twist the Knife” by Napalm Death. Even if you don’t like grindcore, you can’t tell me that isn’t one of the most beastly guitar tones you’ve ever heard. Especially in the middle at the “unborn suffer the norm” part. I could rewind that all day.

    I own a version 2 cobra, not sure what's different between the versions. But that is the most satisfying and frustrating amp I have owned. I so love watching when people flip the notch on. Lol. It's the reaction everyone has. 🤣 I don't know what they were thinking. The most surprising feature to me is the clean channel, it is so good. I did not expect that when I bought mine about 2 years. A great showing of that amp, sounded killer.

  • @Stretchwreckedem469
    @Stretchwreckedem469 Рік тому +1

    The notch switch i would guess would be really cool if you have a guitar speaker that has more midrange than people would really know what to do with. As an example, i've got a 2x12 cabinet loaded up with Eminence CV-75 speakers, which are notorious for being ridiculously honky. However, with amps that can achieve a mroe scooped sound like my Randall RG80 combo, a Dual Rectifier with the treble cranked slightly, or even this amp with the notch switch, you can really notice that those speakers fill out that scoop in the midrange.

    I had one of these briefly. Did a video of it on my channel as well. Used to belong to Zack from Whitechapel and he sold it to a studio friend here in town and we ended up using it a bit for Straight Line Stitch stuff and I just fell in love with it and then years later I bought it and ended up having some issues with it so I got my money back but one thing you should try.....and research/get some other opinions before doing this of course but I read and then tried really juicing the channel volume and it really does open the amp up and makes it not so thin sounding. I did this and was like woah holy shit lol Sounded so much better but then it started doing weird shit like crackling in and out and i'd tap the top of the head and it'd cut in and out but I think there was just something wrong with it. I don't think it was a symptom of me cranking the channel volume because I read a bunch of people online talking about that being like the cheat code for this amp. Super cool head though.

    • @thombambou
      @thombambou Рік тому +1

      So agree with the tip to be sure to crank the channel volume: since 3/4 it becomes far less fizzy and solid sounding! I have the Fragon and that works great. IMHO, the crunch channel cranked with a TS as a boost is the most insane and brutal sound i can get with this crazy amp!

    • @RobArnoldWorld
      @RobArnoldWorld  Рік тому +2

      Without seeing exactly what you have going on, I can only offer some vague suggestions...
      -Make sure your main rhythm tracks are panned out left and right 100%, and try to make them the ONLY things panned out 100% in your mix.
      -After all is said and done with cutting unwanted frequencies from my guitar sound, I often like to then add a +2db shelf at 6k to brighten things up.
      -tight playing is important, but if guitar tracks are edited too precisely, they lose weight and depth in your mix when combined.

    Killer amp Rob. Sounds like a 50 watt amp head ?. Just love the tone that comes out of it. And with three channels. Your gonna have lots of fun with it. The opening riff that you played is that something new ? My reason for asking is that it would suit a song that I've writtern lyrics to. Got to say that it's a first to see/hear this amp. So cheers for another great video.

    Hey Rob... Have you ever tried dialing an amp by turning all the eq knobs to max and working by reduction? Considering most eq on amps are passive, I can get better results. Maybe a new idea for a video?

  • @Heieneken86

    Had one of these years ago, and certainly is a beast of an amp, but the sound capabilities on this thing is very sensitive to tubes and speakers, at least more than any other amps I've ever owned. I had it with a Mesa 4x12 with V30's and apparently these things really shine with greenbacks, which come standard with the matching Cobra cabinet. Always was something in the tone I couldn't dial out, which ultimately led to be selling it, because I was more attached to my Mesa 4x12 (which I still own).
    The only feature I found these amps lacking was a footswitchable FX loop. But man, do they ever look sharp, with that red glow!

  • @ravensongstudios
    @ravensongstudios Рік тому +1

    I don't know if it's an oddity on my gen1 model, the bass and mids, and the treble and presence seem highly interactive on the lead channel. Pushing the bass up seems to saturate it and move it more into the mids, and the mid knob starts to change the shape of that curve. The presence and treble seem to have a similar effect, push the treble and use the presence to shape it, or push the presence and use the treble to shape it. For recording, I will often time reach for a bass between 9 and 10, mids between 0-2, and treble and presence at 7.5~. This is much more chewy and mid forward sound than the settings would indicate (maybe why they added a notch switch). The channel volume will also affect the top end. I run mine pretty high (7-8) and lower master volume. I tend to think of the effects mix as a gain character knob. At 0 it seems more scratchy, at noon it is hyper aggressive, full it's more smooth. The crunch and clean is more normal but still some interaction.
    Also, cymbal cleaner will oxidize the face plate, and is typically what is done for the black face plates everyone seemed to be doing in the late 2000s.
