Randall Head to Head RH200SC and RG100es

Jump to 4:57 for the rg100es
I did not edit this at all like I said I would. Oh well. Just having some fun riffin and showcasing the strength of these old Randall’s. The RH200 is somewhere around 20 years old and the RG is of course in its mid 30’s.
Both boosted with an Ibanez TS9 Reissue, and tightened up with the isp decimator on the noise gate.
Hard to choose a favorite, they both sound incredible to me.

    I was surprised how good the RH sounds, really. But the first 2 seconds of the RG left no questions remaining.

    Yea there is a certain refinement to the old RG. A certain mojo in the voicing, but the rh is no slouch! I think most Randall’s are ready for a fight right outta the gates. Thanks for watching!!

    Both sound amazing. The RG has more of a “classic” top-end brightness to my ear, maybe inspired by the JCM800. The RH’s gain is smoother in the top end and sounds more refined overall with more low-end punch. Are the amps running into separate cabs with different speakers? Both sound awesome regardless.

    Dont get you at all. Got both, tube and ss amps. Same with Randalls, got g2 and g3, g3 uses vacuum tube in preamp. G2 is fully solid. They go on the left channel. On right channel I'm using jcm and 5150 and I got no clue what you mean by sorry tubes. Can you explain me why tube amps seems for you no good for riffs? Maybe I will learn something I don't know about them...

    Just a tubescreamer and a noise gate up front, on the tube screamer I have the gain at 0 and the level and tone maxed out. Pushes the Randall and makes it breathe fire. Different year rg100es kinda sound different too, I have two earlier ones 1984 and an ‘85 you see in the video. Both have black tolex. I think the later 80’s ones had carpet on the outside and I hear they sounded a little different from the black tolex models. Can’t confirm myself tho 🥂

    Hey dude, i've been meaning to ask somebody about tube screamers and solid state amps. I haven't really gotten to try out an actual tube screamer pedal in front of my Randall RG80 combo but i usually use something along the lines of an SD-1 or any similar asymmetrical clipping diode overdrive (primarily a Zoom G1XON but i'd love to look around for some replacements for a real pedal setup one day) to boost my amp to tighten things up in the low end, while retaining the dynamics that you would typically get with solid state amps while retaining that consistent gain structure. I've noticed that with tube screamers in front of my amp, it makes the response of the amp feel kind of flat and sterile in comparison. Have you ever compared the two pedals in front of a solid state amp or noticed anything similar with different overdrives? Both of those amps sound sick btw. It would be really cool to see the two blended together in a mix.

    Actually the only pedal I really have is the ts9 reissue. I do have a silver mxr 6 band that I’ll sometimes use for a second guitar track but without the rest of dimes signal chain the mxr doesn’t add as much girth to the tone. I’d love to hear some other od pedal options in front of these amps. I’ll have to ask around and see if any of my friends have something I could borrow
