Bogner Helios 50 watt
I love Marshalls. Especially old ones. So does Reinhold Bogner, and here's his love letter to Marshall amps. The Helios. This profile set is of a 50 watt amp that has a built in Variac Switch that we exploit for killer tones. You still need to crank this amp up at home to get the goods, but Pete's Profiles and Kemper have you covered.
microphones used
- MD421 - Sennheiser classic, used on drums and guitar amps. Looks like a phaser from Star Trek!
- PR20+ribbon This signal path is a Focusrite ISA One analog standalone preamp into an MXL Ribbon microphone combined with a Heil PR20.
- sm57 - just about everyone knows what this is. Mine is a Unidyne III USA made model from the late 60s. Yes there is a difference between mine and a new import one.
