The other reviews weren't too solid either. Here's my all time
favorite clueless HC review - the DOD ThrashMaster.

This pedal doesn't fuck around with lots of fancy-schmancy knobs. You
get Level, Gain, and Presence. What the fuck else do you need?
Personally, I don't like having to do math when I'm trying to get good
tone out of my axe. That's why the helpful folks at DOD have removed
numbers from their knob dials, and just use black dots. Why the fuck
should i have to remember "Presence 3, Gain 10, Level 10" when my
little brother's jagoff friends come over and fuck with my shit? When
I plug in my Signature Randy Rhoads Jackson V, I only want to think
about one thing: rocking my ass off. The THRASH MASTER gives me that
hardcore metal edge I want without all the pussy crap. Turn the knobs
and turn it up!
Sound Quality: 10
I wish I could explain it. It's like Kerry King and Scott Ian went
cannibal, killed and ate the members of Diabolic Intent, jacked off
their Diabolic Intent-infested spooge all over the second Type O
album, and played it through my Eddie Van Halen 5150 half-stack at top
volume. This pedal is METAL through and through. Sometimes I have to
stop and slam my head into the wall because I can't believe how
fucking amazing my axe sounds with the Thrash Master. After I regain
consciousness, I can hear this heavy grinding noise through my amp,
and i realize that even when I was knocked out, the Thrash Master KEPT
ON ROCKING WITHOUT ME. That's how good this pedal is.
Reliability: 10
You can beat this thing like a cheap back-alley whore and it'll keep
coming back for more. No matter how EXTREME you think you might be,
the THRASH MASTER can take all you dish out and more. It never stops
pumping out the fist-pounding metal, even if you kick it like some
pussy BUSH fan who showed up at the last Dark Legion show because he
thought it was a D&D tournament.
Customer Support: N/A
Overall Rating: 10
If you don't get the point by now, maybe you never will. The THRASH
MASTER is ready to give massive strokes to all your neighbors and
those people who are unlucky enough to be walking by your home when
you're playing through it. If you want, I will come over and thrash on
my amp on your lawn, and you can install some new windows after you
pound some craters into the walls with your head, because it's just
that intense. And it's only like $59, so it only takes like 5 lawn
mowing jobs before you can buy it.

Well, if this guy was looking for a "Blues" guitar in the "Tom Delonge
Signature Strat", then he's in for a rude awakening...

(snip priceless and classic HC review)
This is why I always get a good chuckle when people here
point others to reviews on Harmony Central.
great Place for reviews if you like yours clueless.
Guitaris Shreddimus
also has no clue that his dad bought a "punk rock guitar" named after
the Blink 182 Tom Delonge! Though he WAS right about the Valen Halen
thing ,but i'm sure he guessed about the sound. I mean, whoever thought
you could get Van Halen out of a single bucker strat? (especially early
Halen). "That guitarist for the Van Halen's" , This guy (if real) is
in bad shape!

If they need quick so be it. But I don't think it's very good info.
Seems to me it's mostly a bunch of kids that rush
home from GC with their new whatever, then, after an hour of use.
They write a glowing review bragging about their new device.
Maybe it's useful to get a quick overview of features, but reading some
of the questions here on aga about effects loops and such, I don't think
I would even trust it for that.
Maybe there isn't any way to get good information quickly.
Quick and dirty? OK.

Ampmedic replies:
Besides the immature kiddie reviews, there ARE reviewers
that do know of what they speak.
Generally, the people that can read and
write clearly and logically.
And they happen to be in the majority.
I'm talking about expensive equipment,
not some half-assed pedal, shit guitar
or crappy amp.
But, reading all the reviews is required.
Then, with that bit of background,
make your own choice.
The problem with our society today
is that it wants this great wisdom
without putting in the time and effort
or continuing to improve on it.
Present company not included, of course.
As soon as I see words like "Heh" ,"yo", and
"mother fucker" it's time to move on.
And surely, so should everyone else
unless you want to be just as
clueless as the reviewer.

Okay, really, is any pedal difficult to use? There's four knobs, and in order
to get this pedal working, all you have to do is start turning them all
clockwise. If you don't like the sound, try turning some counterclockwise. Mix
and match to what you want. If you can't figure it out after all of this, try
plugging it in. Then start rocking out to your Seven Mary Three power chords or
whatever the fuck you're listening to, because you obviously haven't attained
the brain power to properly operate a light switch, must less attempt anything
more complex than a rousing rendition of "Cumbersome."
Sound Quality: 9
You want to know my setup? Damn you're a nosy bitch. 1974 Fender Telecaster
through a Danelectro Fab Tone DD-1 into my Fender M-80 combo. That's it.
Personally, I don't like having to fuck around with 19 pedals when I only have
two feet which are usually reserved for helping me run around the stage and
leap off my amp during the downbeat of "Whole Lotta Rosie" when my band "Rabid
Wolf" rocks out twice a week at the Greenbriar Bowl-A-Rama.
Reliability: 10
You want to know how dependable this pedal is? After I found my little brother
Randy messing with the new chrome rims on my Camaro, I rolled my Fab Tone up in
a towel and beat him like a stepchild on Sunday, and it was still able to carry
me through the solo for Trixter's "Give It To Me Good" without even a hint of
static. This pedal is designed for ASS KICKIN' hard rock, so don't even bother
looking at it in the store unless you're ready to smash some punk in the teeth
when he asks you if you were at the last Sneak Attack show, because that pussy
wouldn't understand Sneak Attack if they were rocking out in his bedroom at
3am. So do both of you a favor and crush his skull with a Danelectro DD-1 Fab
Tone.

If you don't get it by now, you probably never will. This pedal is ROCK rolled
up into a neat little ball, and the people at Danelectro have been kind enough
to let us have a little lick of the rock. This pedal is PUNK ROCK and HARD ROCK
and METAL EDGED and everything else that music should be about -- getting loud,
getting WILD, and getting chicks. Sometimes I'll take my Fab Tone and just wear
it down the front of my pants, because it feels just as good to wear it as it
does to play through it. And if anyone tries to give me crap about it, I'll
grab 'em by the front of their shirt and tell 'em how they just walked into the
jungle...and I'M THE TIGER!

Let get one this straight: the Peavey 5150 is made only for rockers who can
handle balls-swallowing METAL ACTION (or AXE-shun). So if you wearing some
fucking backwards red baseball cap and thinking you're gonna be the next Korn
Against the Bizkit or whatever the fuck you listen to, then you might as well
just take that $5,000 Les Paul your uncle gave you and throw it under the tires
of whatever pussy-ass sport coupe you're driving, because the 5150 doesn't have
TIME for your PUSSY-ASS SHIT!
See, the people at Peavey were smart, because they put like twenty knobs on the
5150. Anyone who knows how to truly rock knows there's only one knobs that
matters -- GAIN. That way, when the salesman sees you plugging in the
Mexico-made Fender strat or whatever other pussy-ass guitar you pick off the
rack, and he sees you start messing with every knob on the board while you
insult the 5150 with your blatantly non-metal licks, he can kick your sorry ass
OFF the chair and beat you like the REO Speedwagon fan you probably are,
because no one who truly understood the 5150 would waste time with knobs when
they could be pumping out some killer Sacrificium tunes on a Signature Randy
Rhoads Jackson V at top volume.
Sound Quality: 10
You know what I use. SIGNATURE Randy Rhoads Jackson V, downtuned to B, with
only my DOD FX-59 THRASHMASTER pedal between it and the 5150 (look up the
THRASHMASTER for my other reviews). Yesterday, I took my 5150 over to my friend
Dino's house, and he opened it up and disconnected every knob except the GAIN
one, and then we busted that knob off so it's permanently stuck at 10, because
that's the only number I need to know when it comes to pumping out my hot n'
tasty licks with my new side project, LETHALICON, when we hit the stage at the
Greenbriar Community Center every Thursday. After Dino and I modded my amp,
every time i hit a low B, it sounds like the members of Hierarchical Punish are
in my basement, beating the members of Civilization Hatred to death with
amplified, unbridled metal brutality. This amp is for PURE, SLUTBANGING METAL,
so don't even touch it unless you're ready to proclaim your dedication to
annihilation!
Reliability: 10
I always say a good amp is like a good woman -- if it lasts through the first
couple beatings, it's yours for life. This baby can take all the kicks and
still pump out the hottest licks. Once, when I caught my little brother looking
at my Signature Randy Rhoads Jackson V, I strapped his head to the 5150 and
hung him out the window by his ankles. He kept squirmin' and hollerin' until
finally I dropped him, but it was okay, because the 5150 was hooked back up in
minutes, and none of the blood or snot stopped it from giving me the hot metal
injection I demand. Let me put it this way: the 5150 will treat you better than
any girlfriend, because it screams louder, it's easier to pick up, and it shuts
up when you take your plug out.
Customer Support: 10
You think I have time to talk to corporate non-rockers about this shit? No
fucking way! Any time I got a problem with anything, my amigo Dino sets me up
just fine. Sometimes, I'll call the customer service number, and when they pick
up the phone, I'll put the receiver down by my amp and crank out "Fool for the
City" by Foghat just to show my appreciation. They're never on the phone when I
finish, but I'm sure they like to hear how at least SOME of us know how to use
their amps for the prep-smacking ROCK they wanna hear.
Overall Rating: 10
I've been playing long enough to know that this amp kicks more ass and gets
more chicks than my band's last bass player. Look, if you're still reading this
review, then you obviously have some sort of cranial damage. If you do, that
means you probably already own a 5150 and a Signature Randy Rhoads Jackson V,
in which case, KEEP ROCKIN'! Because if you didn't already own one of these, by
now you should be at Guitar Center, buying your 5150 head and telling them how
they need to hold a Guitar Center 5150-a-thon, because it's the only amp that
matters anyway.

All right, shit is just getting out of hand here. People keep e-mailing me
wanting to know all about my SIGNATURE Randy Rhoads Jackson V. Like I don't
have anything better to do than sit here and write reviews? Fuck that. When I'm
not pulling double shifts at Walgreens, I'm spending my time the way any true
rocker knows how -- banging HEADS and banging SLUTS, with some quality brew
time with my good buddy Dino on the side. Whether it's shredding out with my
new band SLUTBANGER, or my side project LETHALICON, I always keep the intense
metal mayhem BURNING like the crotch of a Vietnamese whore. You know what I'm
talking about.
Anyways, I'm not going to tell you all that technical bullshit that you don't
want to hear. All that shit about double-locking tremoloes, humbuckers,
strings, and all the stuff that dudes who liked Slayer's "Diabolus In Musica"
better than "South of Heaven" probably care about. If you don't own "South of
Heaven," then give me call so I can come over and beat you senseless with my
SIGNATURE Randy Rhoads Jackson V, because you're about as metal as that kid
whose ass I stomped at the last Insatanity show because he asked me if i liked
the latest GORETICIAN disc. On the other hand, if you didn't know that "South
of Heaven" is a Slayer album, then you should probably call your mom or whoever
it is that kept your crib too close to the microwave and thanks them for
fucking up your BRAIN so much that you're totally ignorant of the most savagely
INTENSE metal album since Blizzard of Ozz.
As for my Signature - you bet your ass - SIGNATURE Randy Rhoads Jackson V, it
used to be all polka dot and shit, but Dino hooked me up with this wicked
artist named Arturo who works down in Romeoville. He did a sweet-ass painting
of a wolf pack hunting at night. Even though I had to stop playing with Rabid
Wolf after that fuckhead Jimmy actually asked me to turn it DOWN one day at
practice, probably because he's what we true metal maniacs like to call "a
pussy assed bitch," it's still a killer wicked paint job that I'm gonna match
on my Camaro hood once I finish up my neighbor's lawn.
Sound: 10
You want to know what the SIGNATURE Randy Rhoads Jackson V sounds like? Let me
introduce you to a little something called UNCAGED METAL DESTRUCTION. When I
first got my V, I went down into my basement, plugged it into my EVH 5150
custom half-stack with a 300-foot cord, and then I climbed up into my attic and
stood in the window, looking over my neighborhood and wondering if they had any
idea that there was about to be a full-frontal metal assault rolling straight
through their homes. As I hit that first power G chord, I felt my house rumble
as the sonic metal INVASION trampled its way through its walls and loosed
itself upon my unsuspecting neighbor, who was stupid enough to come out from
his backyard and ask me what was going on. I mean, by now the neighbors know
that when I'm standing in that attic window, they should watch where they step
because their BALLS are about to be rocked off.
So ANYWAY, there I am, giving my neighbor a good look at what it means to be a
true rocker, and just for fun I start practicing some killer Maiden licks when
he tries to tell me to turn it down or he'd call the police. Do I look like I
have time for his rules?? I'm fucking rocking out, man! I unzipped my pants and
told him what he could do with his police.
Anyway, the point is, the SIGNATURE Randy Rhoads Jackson V, if you're lucky
enough to own one, will grab you by the throat and spit nothing but pure,
UNADULTERATED METAL TONE in your face. Why am I telling you this? If you
haven't heard this guitar by now, then you obviously have no concept of what
true METAL is all about. You've heard what I've said about Mexican
Stratocasters? I bet you play one, don't you, you little bitch? That's what I
thought. The Randy Rhoads V gives you maximum tonal definition while acting as
a massive slut magnet at every show you bring it to. Just keep a rag handy,
because chicks get so wet around this baby, they might end up dripping all over
the EQ knobs, and that can seriously fuck up your electronics
Action, Fit, & Finish: 10
Does this guitar have any flaws? Maybe the fact that you'll have to waste more
time kicking the asses of punks that come over and hang around in your basement
trying to get a look at it. Like when I came home one day from Dino's, and I
heard some totally un-metal, pussy-ass, limp-wristed NON-POWER-CHORDS coming
from my basement. I kicked open the door with my boot and found my fucking
little brother Randy actually trying to PLAY MY FUCKING GUITAR. Now as you
know, this was just one of the many occasions that I found Randy fucking with
my shit. Mom says that I should be nicer to him because he looks up to me. Fuck
that! I was the one who named him Randy (after you-know-who), in the hopes that
he might end up being a brutal demon of speed metal and we could rock out like
true brothers of doom, but instead he's just a snotty little punk who likes to
get his grubby little hands on my shit. So I had to teach him a lesson.
I grabbed that Jackson V out of his hands and twisted the guitar strap around
his neck while it was still on the guitar, and then I put the guitar on his
shoulders, strapped his hands to either end with a couple spare cables I had
lying around, and I pulled off my belt. Man, could he scream! After five or six
whips across the back with my studded Motorhead belt buckle, Mom came down and
started yelling at me. She started unstrapping him from the guitar, and I only
got a couple more licks in across his shoulders before I had to stop my axe
from hitting the ground. That paint job was fucking expensive, you know? Mom
kept screaming and Randy's blowing snot everywhere because he was crying like a
fucking little mama's boy. I mean, if he's not ready to face the lion, then
why'd he walk in the cage? That's what I say. I tried to explain to my mom
that, quite obviously, Randy had not grown up to be as metal as we both had
hoped, but she totally didn't understand. But I'll tell you one thing - it was
a lon time before Randy fucked with any of my shit anymore.
Reliability/Durability: 10
Have you ever grabbed your axe by the neck and clocked some punk in the teeth
with it because he said that "Powerslave" is a better album than "Seventh Son"?
I have, and let me tell you, my SIGNATURE Jackson V split his face without
picking up a scratch. This baby has taken more beatings than Cannibal Corpse's
drum kit on "The Bleeding." As for reliability, do I sound like the kind of
poser who would play anything but the BEST guitar for hours upon hours of
thrashing metal annihilation? Not ONCE has my V let me down, not even when I
got so overwhelmed by its killer tone that I had to climb up on my 5150 half
stack and jump onto my lead singer's back, guitar and all. I mean, sometimes
there's just so much metal pounding through my brain that I just have to let it
out, you know? Anyway, after I started chewing on his ear, he threw me and my
Jackson V on the ground, but the V never once stopped ejaculating its hot metal
love juice all over me.
Customer Support: N/A
Dude, haven't I told you that I NEVER, EVER TALK TO CORPORATE NON-ROCKERS about
my gear? You might as well just buy yourself a pretty little keyboard and start
up some pussy dance pop band, because those are the only people who would
actually call somebody in an OFFICE and ask them how to rock.
Overall Rating: 10
This guitar cost about five times more than my car, but it's worth every penny.
Do you want to get swallowed up by a WHIRLWIND OF BRUTALITY, not to mention by
all those metal sluts who will be dropping to their knees for you when they see
you walking backstage with that alligator-skinned guitar case and a pair of
electric blue spandex pants? If not, then stay on your couch and strum your
Simon and Garfunkel songs on whatever lame acoustic guitar you just found in
your closet. But if you're ready to get sweaty with the hottest metal sluts
this side of Gary, Indiana, then grab your wallet and stop acting like such a
bitch. Once, when I hit a particularly animalistic harmonic on this baby, I
heard this ear-shattering screech. It wasn't coming out of my amp, but from the
alley behind my dad's garage. When I walked out back, I found that my precisely
honed chops, when matched up with the SIGNATURE Jackson V, were enough to
induce seizures into the family of raccoons that live in our dumpster. So don't
buy this guitar if you're someone who only goes halfway, because the SIGNATURE
Randy Rhoads Jackson V will know. So if you try to plug this thing into a
Fender Blues Combo or some other pussy piece of shit amp that isn't ready to
unleash an unrelenting METAL STORM on the world, it will probably just stop
working, or maybe even attempt to choke you to death with the guitar strap.
Don't ask me how. This thing is fucking brutal.

Generally you get pretty informed reviews of expensive equipment but I hate
the guys who review a piece of gear after having borrowed it for a week or
just having played it in a store. I've posted one review on HC and I waited
till I had played at least 40 gigs with my Bogner in many different rooms at
different volumes before doing so...right around 8 months I think. My
review turned out to be extremely long and detailed and I think it would
help most people who where seriously considering purchasing a Bogner
Ecstasy. Of course there is a fellow on there who played one in a store and
came home and reviewed it that said it sounded just like a JCM900. I don't
quite trust his opinion as my JCM900 under the same circumstances as my
Bogner never cut it for me...that's why I sold it and replaced it with the
Bogner to begin with. I guess the lesson here is be wary of the one listen
reviewers. It should be mandatory to disclose whether or not you actually
own the amp, how long you have owned it, and whether or not you've actually
used it outside of the store and your bedroom. This would make filtering
through the crap reviews much easier.

I'd bet that for most of us here it would be fairly easy to sort the chaff.
But I was kind of thinking about the really young, or the guitar newbie.
I wonder how many of those people ignore the well written and valuable
reviews, such as yours likely was, writing them off because they discuss
things that are alien to them, the words too difficult, or the jargon seems
incomprehensible. Folks like that may even place more trust in the lame
"xyz RuLeZ" review because it is written in their "native" style.
Just a thought.

is).

What a laugh!! That must rank up there with Rip Glitter's review of his
Sandoval Randy Rhoads Polka Dot V. Excellent stuff.
