Will you endorse my band? First off, we don't do any full endorsements for anyone. We are however willing to work with hard working bands. There are many factors when considering a band for an endorsement. The biggest is touring. We would expect any unsigned bands to be playing an average of 150 shows per year. If you don't at least tour on a regular basis our products aren't being seen and there is no benifit to us. Other endosement considerations are based on label support and obviously talent and music quality. If you think you may qualify for an endorsement, feel free to send a press kit to us at, 302 5th Ave. S. Strum, WI 54770. All press kits should include releases from the band, past tour dates, upcoming confirmed dates, contact info, and any press clippings and magazine reviews you may have recieved. Please don't contact us asking if we listened to or liked your stuff. All press kits will be reviewed and if we are interested we will contact you.   Will my guitar head power these cabs ok? Yes. I know of people running 50 and 60 watt heads with our 480 watt 4x12 and it sounds great!! Power ratings of guitar heads is a little differant than pro audio applications where you want to try and match your power amp to the speakers. The power amp in a guitar head is all rated before the preamp. Once you add the eq, gain, and everything else into the mix it changes everything. With our cab's high power ratings, it's just a matter of having extra headroom in the cab. Some people like the added "peaking" sound of distorted speakers (better known as speaker break up) in lower wattage cabs, but this is very hard on speakers and will eventually blow them. We like to build high power cabs so you get the true tone out of your head. This also ensures the speaker life. With a high powered cab you wil also get a much tighter punchier sound.   Can you compare the sound of your cabs with any others? I've owned several cabs in my life and I knew what I hated with each one of them. That's obviously why Vader Cabinets was started. I will tell you this though. Most of our cabs are slightly larger than most. By doing this it allows for more capability of low end in your sound. It won't add bass to your sound or "color" it in any way, but it will give you the capability of handling it if you wish. Also since our speakers are a lot higher powered than most, the speakers are tighter. This will give you a punchier tone. This is why alot of the really technical guitar players love our cabs. They can get extremely loud, have a good thick tone, and still have every note being picked come out crystal clear with plenty of defintion.   Will these cabs sound good for other types of music other than metal? Yes. I know of 2 blues players off hand that use these cabs and love 'em!! The 12 inch speakers we use are similar to a modeling speaker, so they are meant to sound good with many differant types of eq settings including clean tones. Again clarity is key...
