Break out the ear plugs for some loud Russian gear

[huntingsocal]

I recently dusted off some old gear from my glory days of rock and roll in the 90's as it looks like I'll be making another venture into the studio soon.

I've had a long standing affinity for loud Russian gear even before I was diagnosed with Adult Onset Mosinitis.

For any guitar guys out there who can appreciate a good tube amp, enjoy

The Mosins are all Russian and the Sovtek was also made in Russia.

Rumor has it Sovtek amps were made from mil surp electrical components and some were clones of old Fender amps.

Those are fun to shoot. Yes....they are loud but the sound is awesome.

Don't forget the fireballs (from the M44)!

Nice looking collection.

Nice

I probably have Sovtek 6L6's in one of my amps . I've heard the same thing, some of theirs are like Fenders and some are like Marshall's.

Yep! It was my amp tech that told me about them back in the day. He said he loved working on them and said one of the 50 watt models was a fender bassman clone

Nothing beats those old Sovtek tubes

I love the old Fender amps. Nearly did a DIY Fender Champ kit, but never pulled the trigger on it. My free time these days goes to my guns and reloading more than music. The guitars are mostly expensive wall art now lol

Have yet to try the Mosin's, but I liked my Yugo AK when I had it, and have a soft spot for the M44's

Using the guitar stand here was very clever

Mosins and loud guitar amplifiers. It's like peanut butter and jelly.

Awesome!!! I really like the display, maybe on of the old Soviet trumpet loud speakers to go with it?

Sweet.
