The SHG
The SHG is a serious high gain amp. It has 2 more gain stages compared to the hot side of the Storm. I was after the '80's hair metal sounds, and gain levels, without having to use a pedal. Its not as harsh and metallic as a lot of high gain amps, it still retains the "old" tone, but adds a ton of gain to that old tone. It also has a very effective master volume for playing at reasonable levels. The SHG is not a lifeless, mid scooped modern day noise maker, it still retains mids, and character. The amp now comes standard with an effects loop and power scaling.
It can run any 8 pin power tube. I have run kt88's to give it more bass and percussive thump, KT66's give it a really cool jtm45 with a couple of pedals in front, and el34's sound like a great 70's Marshall, but with a drive and distortion pedal pushing it.
The SHG is built with the same high quality and attention to detail as the rest of the amps in the Reinhardt line.

I recorded a very quick clip with a video camera, and lifted just the audio off of it. This is no effects, no editing etc, ust the audio from the track. This was also played at a pretty low volume, not a whisper, but pretty reasonable.
I will try to get more clips up soon, and some pics.

Here are a couple of clips of the SHG. These were
recorded straight in with an Audix I5 mic. The Blues clip is on the low side of the amp.
