Cali-Lead

[kylendm]

Just got a Cali-Lead and this is definitely a super versitle module. Put the boost on low gain and roll back the volume and you can get very clean tones. Turn the gain up and volume and you can get some excellent bluesy/rock tones. Turn the boost on, switch to bridge and you can get extreme metal. Super tight, Dry, just like my old UL. Love this thing. Might do a playthrough video to show off what it can do. Anyone interested in that?

Until then, here's some metal/heavy rock clips. No EQing other than a lowpass filter to get rid of some 12k fizz and up.

These clips are far from perfect as I recorded them in like an hour but I didn't see many clips on it so here you go.

Signal chain was RGD7321 + SD Pegaus -> Cali-Lead-> H&K 4x12 (G12 Blackback) -> SM57 -> Saffire Pro24 -> Daw

Glad you like it...pretty killer heavy / lead tones from that thing!

 

[kylendm]

Thanks again! This thing is absolutely killer. Now I just have to put my KT88s in this thing and make it really VHT like.

 

[JKD]

Man, I love KT-88s...especially the Gold Lions!

One of my favorites as well.

Finally, a video on the JF UL !!!! Thank so much, absiloutely awesome!!!

 

[kylendm]

Thanks man. I'm going to try and make another one tomorrow on it and replace this one with that. Make it a little shorter and show off some tones better.

The module sounds great, i can imagine with some KT88's it really have that VHT vibe. It definitely has that dry, punchy VHT feel, but in this video the gain was mainly at 12 o'clock, and it was extreme! (Yes, i'm aware there was a TS9 boost from 7:00 onwards). I'm wondering will it still be so clear at around 3/4o'clock....
It'll be good to see some settings on it, instead of mainly around noon. Cant wait for the next video!

 

[kylendm]

Here's a clip I did with deep mode engaged. All settings were noon. Tomorrow I plan on reamping one of the riffs and making the other video I was talking. I'll go through all the settings and toggles but hopefully this video won't be nearly as long.

Awesome video, really showed all the dynamics of this excellent module. I was think of getting Rob to do me a custom Delvierance module, but i honestly doubt it can get any better than this.

Yeah this module is really killer. Been using it like crazy lately. I'm hoping to use it on my bands next EP.
