Sunn Beta Lead for Sale - North West England
« on: September 01, 2011, 02:24:26 am »
HI All,

Found this forum through a mate who posts on here (Jon from the band Conan)

I have a Sunn Beta Lead amp that i am looking to sell. Power switch needs mending as it wont stay on due to a faulty spring, but otherwise its a great amplifier.

I used it on the following albums and it sounds massive: -

http://www.discogs.com/Atavist-Alchemic-Resurrection/master/268229

£250 obo , I would be interested in discussing with people.

Hey, sorry for hijacking the thread, but you're the Atavist guitarist!? wow!

Welcome aboard!

I have to say I'm a big fan, got almost all of the releases...LP/CD...! I dig it!

The tone you've got on those recordings is the tone I drool for! surprised it's actually a beta lead!

You should post your band in the «Bands using Sunn amps» thread then. ;)

good luck for the sale!

cheers!

Thanks very much!

Always nice to hear that people enjoy those albums.

I have a few rarities for sale if you are interested in some choice cuts!

As for the sunn amp, i used a ProCo Vintage RAT pedal in combo with it to get that tone. I also tuned the guitar to drop A tuning and used the following guage strings. 75, 60, 48, 36, 22w, 16

If you are searching for that tone... thats how you will find it

Thanks so much for sharing!

Yeah I would be definitly interested about those choice cuts. Let's get this going via pm...

Cool, I use a Epiphone Lespaul Baritone tune to drop A myself. I have a baritone light string set (62-46-36-36-17-13) with the low B swap for a 70 to maintain the tension.

I've got a Sonic Titan or Meat Head in front of a Model T 1st gen into 4x12+2x15 pretty satisfied but I'll have to try my BYOC Rat clone again I guess, got the LM308 in there...

Using a ProCo Vintage Rat Pedal for totally massive distortion
