The Romesh LumaBullet 412 Vint is an official Artist-Series Release from legendary Producer and Mix Engineer Romesh Dodangoda, inspired by – and captured from – a Mesa Engineering® 4×12 slant cabinet outfitted with a quartet of Celestion® Vintage 30’s.

Attention Tone Heads: There’s mojo at play with this capture! During the capture process we noticed a reference to “Bullet” taped across the top panel of the cab – Romesh subsequently divulged this cab was straight out of Bullet for my Valentine’s backline, secured especially for the capture session at hand. Listening to it, we can see why! It’s relentless, full-bodied and a must-have for anyone treading the heavier side of contemporary guitar sonics.

For players seeking a complex overtones, a warm low-end, an iconic vocal mid-range and crystalline buttery-smooth high’s, the legendary Vintage 30 is the undisputed final destination. Developed to cater for the exacting demands of the contemporary player, it’s been surgically tuned for considerable power handling capability and voiced to complement overdriven tones to perfection. Immediately identifiable via its vibey 3D crunch, the Vintage 30 is a mainstay on countless recordings from legends in the Guitar annals including the likes of Slash, Steve Stevens and Peter Frampton. When retrofitted into a thunderous Mesa® 4×12 slant enclosure, all the power, precision and exemplary dispersion you demand is ripe for the taking.

During the extensive capture process for the “Romesh Dodangoda | Studio Essentials” collection, Romesh painstakingly auditioned every speaker in his cabinet assemblage. The results are – put simply – palpable and a sure-fire guarantee that you’re primed with the Crème de la crème when it comes to studio grade guitar sonics. In the LumaBullet 412 Vint the source cabinet’s top left speaker was selected as the go-to tone for this capture.

Part of the “Romesh Dodangoda | Studio Essentials” collection, the Romesh LumaBullet 412 Vint has been captured with an exquisite selection of studio grade mics and a raft of primo recording peripherals at Longwave Studios. Enacted by Romesh himself, alongside our resident Capture Master (Adam Steel: Hop Pole Studios), expect the pinnacle in studio grade sonics engineered to deliver seamless adaptability from the studio to the stage.
