- The Schecter Synyster Gates Custom Head: This is the flagship of the pack. Based on Synyster’s signature amp, this model is designed for high-gain clarity. Unlike many modern metal amps that rely on wall-shaking low-end fizz, this amp offers a tight mid-range response. It handles complex chords without turning to mud and offers a "singing" quality for leads that cuts through a dense mix instantly.
- The Fryette GP3: A studio staple for high-gain tones, the Fryette GP3 is included to cover the more aggressive, compressed rhythm tones. It provides the saturation needed for the band’s heavier breakdowns and works as an excellent platform for palm-muted riffing.
