Fast or Bulbous?

[The Captain]

Is 'blues' the same as an older grey hammer version?

Maybe There was a transition between the two. The 'Dark Blues' model

So are those of us who've been waiting for one with V&R get the option to choose between the two when are names come up?

Also, just how apparent is the difference between the two models? Any differentiation in gain levels at all?

Yup.

Pretty obvious. Kinda like Show No Mercy versus Seasons in the Abyss. Dark has more of everything.

Sonic Blue Sonic Titan Blues (is that right?)

Cubic Blue

[The Captain]

Is there a distinct way to identify which of the older models are fast or slow?

How they sound See below...

One more question. Is there a lot of low end growl to the dark compared to the Blues?

Yup. I will get some clips or some shit sorted to demonstrate the differences.

I'm assuming dark. since it's a 2008\9

I'm 99.99% the first Dark's would have been from around January 2009.

I'm only using the term 'Dark' as its in use already to state or hint at a certain usage in regards to the Meathead. You might wanna play old school Rock and Blues shit with the Dark Titan. You might wanna play heavy shit with the Blues Model, its still the one I use myself. Its mainly a difference in its core tone.

So its not Dark in tone in general just its a louder, more heavy duty and wider in its frequency response. You could use it for Darker sounds, if you dig.

[The Captain]

Yeah, more low end and thicker sounding, the older one seems to cut a little more.

[molokaio]

Right on captain... everything's super clear now!

[Sk10]

So my may 2008 Hammerite Sonic Titan is supposed to be a 'blues'?

[Jim Goad]

Louder?!
The Darks are going to be popping speakers straight out of people's cabs.

[JP30]

wider in its frequency response.

i think the dark one's for me . . . .

[worldcatalyst]

Sounds good Captain.

Now I really need a Dark now.

[jetofuj]
