Great secret of the M60 is running the bias all the way up in 15 watt 220v B+ mode. It’s Van Halen all day at recording volume.

I had a KR55 with the headmaster midi controller, but I ended up selling it and just keeping my KII because I've had the KII for so long I'm more familiar with it and the midi controller for the KR55 is a little overcomplicated and huge.

Fryette need to either release something new-ish or do what everyone else is doing and make a lunch box or small 50 watt.

Fryette is making stuff and doing a lot with the reactive loads and IR Loader and things like that. He seems to be updating his older stuff as well. He updated the Deliverance amps and is working on the new Ultra Lead. He hit supply chain issues like everybody else and is also responsible for the Sound City line and working with Synergy on various things. He is a small shop and BIG on his covid bullshit so any time he sneezes he is in quarantine and "vaxxed up" and fully boosted and always masked up. As much of a genius as he is he is yet to figure out it is all that shit that is making him continually sick. Regardless, he is putting out products and I sure as hell hope he doesn't make a lunchbox amp. We have way too many of those damn things around already IMO. YMMV

Knucklehead 2x12 combo a local-ish band was using years ago was one of the best live hard rock tones I've ever heard.


Lusted after one ever since but I've still never gotten one

Once the master is opened up, it’s on.

Didn't you get the midi controller with it?

No foot controller with the one I got.

Butcher cab, but yeah same thing

Did someone here win that black M100 on Reverb? I actually put an offer on it and got a decline that it was already sold.

 

[Emg77]

Here is quick clip of channel two with some various boost. This thing is is awesome and can transform into many killer tones. Thick and fat.

I had a Butcher cab back in the day. Heavy as hell but sounded great. Does it have the 65 watters or the CL 80’s?

G12K85s. Same as the newer G12K100s

Mixing 16 ohm V30’s and K85’s is fucking BRUTAL.

I haven't tried that yet. It currently has two G12K85s and two Scumback M75s

Throw the V30's up top and prepare your anus.

 

[ZEEGLER]

I have a couple V30s, but they're 8 ohm unfortunately

Ran one of my m100 through my Mesa Recto 4x12(280w), and dimed it a few years back.
Amazing sounding on both channels. Ch.1 had it's "modded Marshall-esque" thing going on, and Ch.2
sounded like a Super Reverb on steroids.
But, so loud.(as expected)
The m100 is seriously underrated amp.

Very tube dependent and so many controls you need a degree to dial it in.

The manual has so many presets. That’s the way!
