Hi Eco1,

I would definitely be pointing towards the Rebel Yell or Holydiver. I would be leaning more towards the Rebel Yell though as it will have a little more mid-range focus whereas the Holydiver will be a little bit darker than the Rebel Yell.

Rebel Yell -

Holydiver -

Once you've had a chance to listen to read up and listen to the sound clips, let me know your thoughts on them.

well i am sold.

My RY pups are already on the way to me \, you guys just shipped.

I was afraid i might not be able to get those sounds with it, hence the questions, but i will just wait, try and i am very sure, enjoy them!
