Dar FBM seekers…

I had a DAR FBM and Forza and tried a Tuzzia. I wouldn't consider any of them great amps, but just like the shiny poly drenched guitars that many here love, they at least had looks going for them lol and the carbon fiber tolex on the Forza felt really cool

They all sounded a bit synthetic, but not as badly as many other amps. The Forza and Tuzzia sounded sort of like the KSR's to me in some ways, but not as good. The FBM I had sounded bigger, more powerful and modern, but still synthetic and not great tone. I kind of expected that with the FBM, but was hoping it would at least be crazy tight, but it's nowhere near super tight like a Hermansson or Hell Razor, both of which are far superior amps. Fwiw, some say the serial # of the one I had may not have been as good, but none of the 3 I played were imo great amps, but they looked awesome lol. Not as distinctive sounding as I was hoping for either given the looks and innovate designs
I remember the drama about that specific serial #.....Martin should just have an Darfest :love:
 
Someone would wait less for a DAR amp at the moment than they would for a Larry.
Another one I’m shocked hasn’t been cloned. The Satan wasn’t it. Sounded nothing like what I’ve heard from Larry’s. Like the base tone literally nothing alike. Maybe just putting in the hpf and lpf, but that’s it.
 
I liked how he used the different tubes. Plus they looked cool as shit with those giant pieces of glass. Apparently the tubes are fairly cheap and super robust. I don’t know, going from memory. These and the makos were the cats ass for awhile. Then fortin I believe.
 
Imagine thinking your absolutely dumb as shit amp is worth 17 thousand dollars simply because there’s only a few of them. An amp that by all accounts, was a complete and utter flop unlike anything ever seen. An amp that literally 23 people on earth have heard of. What a time to be alive.

Duuuuude but it's RARE. Don't you know RARE things are better because you have it and nobody else does? Psssh, everyone is just jealous that they can't have it! Who cares if you even play it...the 15 other guys on earth who give a shit about it will be impressed, and will be lining up to buy it from me so they can say it's "THE BEST AMP THEY HAVE EVER PLAYED BUT THEY ARE SELLING AFTER 3 DAYS TO MOVE ONTO SOMETHING ELSE BUT TRUST ME ITS THE BEST AND AMAZING" #UsedOnNoRecordingsOfNote
 
I've played Martin's a good bit. It's definitely brutal and unique. I keep telling him to sell it cuz he'll never get it fixed if it breaks. Lol. But it's his most favorite thing in the world. I doubt he'd sell it, even for that price.
He won’t sell it ever . He’s already left to someone in his will
