Hey guys


I caught flack for posting about this amp, but I am the first one getting a Fortin Meathead and I thought I would post a progress pic of the amp.

YES of course it's an Overkill type of amp, but I am an Overkill type of guy *not the band* hahaha

here it is guys!




The amp is going to look KILLER when it's done and I can't wait!

it's not for everyone thats for sure! but it sure as fuck is for me so that is all that matters! hahaha


Peace

Is this like, a build it yourself kind of thing? What's it like 3 individual sets of controls with two channels each? Something like that?

Awsome. Im considering buying a marshall and having him mod it for me.

Looks very versatile. What power tubes are you planning on putting in it?

I hope he doesn't skimp on the relays since there is 42 of them in the design if they start sticking it could be a headache to fix hehe.

Are the channels 3 completely different voicings? That looks like it could give a Diezel VH4 or any multi-channel amp a run for its money. How much? If you don't mind me asking.

At $4995 and SIX channels, it'd BETTER give the Diezel a run for its money! Looks pretty amazing...

They have a 2 channel metal amp coming out next year called the NATAS. I wonder how much that will be?

Nice colour. I'm a fan of green. It definitely sounds like it will be a total kick ass amp. A little too much my my preferences, but cool nontheless. Personally, I like things simple. A good clean channel, a good overdrive channel(with separate EQ sections), and a footswitchable lead boost is all I really need.

I checked the website and clips on youtube. The thing sounds pretty amazing!!! Congratulations!!!! Keep the progress pics coming.

It's actually slightly Cheaper for me than a Herbert or a VH4 here where I live! and it does more!
And I got custom tolex and custom panels which you can't do with Diezel!

As I've said before I had the prototype at my house for a week and was just floored and I use to own a Diezel Herbert.

I am the second in line for the Natas as well hahahaha I must have that amp to go with the collection!


I will add progress pics as long as Mike send them to me!
