Mike using Randalls was very, very long ago, before Randall was bought by US Music Corp. Mike had a endorsement deal with Randall but after the buyout, Mike didn't like their new line of amps  . On Speed Kills he doesn't actually use the Randalls behind him, but a Lee Jackson modded Marshall JCM 800 that belonged to Doug Marks of Metal Method. Mike preferred amps these days are Marshall JCM 800, JCM 900 and JCM 2000 for lead, Mesa Boogie Rectifiers for rythms and sometimes Framus for Clean. These are all expensive amps (though You might be able to find JCM 900 at good prices used), for new cheap amps I recommend try before buy. Right now I'm looking into this, which I've found new in a local shop, though the were discontinued about 9 Years ago www.leejackson.com/XLA.htm The price is rather good, but the head alone is still more expencive than a Randall Halfstack. |
