Randall Doom amp...

[Hacken]

So Randall wanna doom out with what looks like a Orange inspired amp.
KT88 power amp with some kind of built in fuzz.
It looks like some tasteless moron designed the whole thing on a beach in the 90´s. http://www.randallamplifiers.com/th_product/eod-88/

I like the BIG master volume knob. Skull graphic is typical Randall hamfisting.

88 watts, do they even know what Doom is?

Edit: I do like the flat face plate aesthetic. Unlike Marshalls and boogies and most amps that hav the chassis, a decorative name protrusion panel and then further recessed control panel. Its clean and fun....except Randall got dumb about it.

Not only is it obviously way too gimmicky for anyone to take serious...The fact that there's only 88watts behind those gaudy douchy graphics, shows that they're totally missing the point and don't have a clue about what doom gear is about.

Needs a weed-related graphic to really succeed IMO. You've already got the skull and what appears to be a Celtic cross, 2 out of 3 ain't bad, but to be both hebby and doomy there needs to be a trifecta. So you can play tritones through your tri-channel amp.
Also, the fuzz should be modulated by an LFO, the tempo of which can be controlled via footswitch. Although it only goes up to 45bpm.
Please consider these changes and re-release the amp accordingly.

I would get that head, if it were used and rather cheap, but the first thing I would be doing is changing the graphic. It looks like shit.

[D.o.S.]

We talked about this in the main thread. I said it was ugly. I stand by what I said.

Marketing meeting: Hey guys!! I just heard eyehategod!! And here's a stupid picture of a skull I drew while high!!

Everyone else: party emoticon!!!

Whenever I see "KT88" it makes me think of Soviet tanks from the 1940s.
So that's p doom I guess.

[univalve]

Guys, ban me, but this is the first amp by randall that i would like to try.

[WayToHip]

I guess this will appeal to the Hot Topic crowd who like Doom.

Well, I tried to find out what it sounds like, and it sounds like a Randall. With an ELEMENT OF DOOM!!!!

[Achtane]

I don't know if Hot Topic people like doom. Aren't they more into, like, Paramore?
I wonder what the weed making machine would do to this.

[doommeow]

What's it cost? And it's it gonna cost when it's blown out by GC/MF/etc 1-3 years from now?

Yes. I want to know, too. Weed Making Machine would make it more brutal.

What's it cost? And it's it gonna cost when it's blown out by GC/MF/etc 1-3 years from now?

That's really the most relevant question. If it sounds decent and is being blown out for next to nothing, I can always fix the ugly with some spraypaint.

EOD88 is at around 4:30 in. It sounds all right but like a generic metal amp. And the fuzz just compresses it wayyy too much in the video.
