fortin evil pumpkin, seems like a really good deal (ie price

Oh and furthermore, about 100% of the amps in your signature are also based off something else, so if you need to look up the word "hypocrisy", might I recommend the following purchase?

Oh yeah, because we didn't have it pinned to the top of our social medias who was building them for 6 months and have it listed on the website and answer hundreds of questions about it as well. That's right. I suppose every company on the planet should email every prospective customer on the planet to let them know that 2 guys, both incredibly well-respected in the amp-building world, are building the 100+ hand-wired amps instead of 1 guy in his his basement.

Not the prospective ones... just the customers that pre-paid in advance for an amp thinking it was going to be custom built in Cana-Duh... by the Fartin Fuhrer himself... only to find it was ghost-built from a diy amp kit in Michigan, USA by Metro-Amps. And the advertised specs were not even correct.

Those are deceitful business practices plain and simple. Spin-that. Or more accurate, sit and spin on it.

Keep digging.

So will the new Fartin amps come with masks or will you guys wait until after the viral outbreak to ship them from China? Just want to know... so I can set up the EVO Suit and Oxygen Tent in my studio before it arrives. Can't be too careful.

 

[engage757]

Right, because a very quickly caught typo on the website is such a conspiracy. Would you have preferred we shipped everything into Canada, charged double the price and George and Mike built them in Mike's basement? It seems your only actual argument is you don't like the roof it was built under. It was built by Mike and one other guy. How horrendously deceitful. It was literally posted all over our socials too. Maybe next time we should have Mike run on down to the local automotive school and snag a few guys to pay $7.85 an hour to solder with him, would you prefer that or will you need background checks for those as well?

Might be time to take your meds friend. It's truly getting embarrassing now.

Also, no matter how often you claim they are being made in China, they are made in the U.K., and I get it, you don't know much about production or amps, so I know you will continue grasping at straws. Thank you for this entertainment though! Remember to take you Bean-O, you seem to have a flatulence problem. Nice of you to ignore all the actual points I am making that you have no response for, you do realize that you are doing nothing but keeping these threads bumped up and getting people to DM me and hit me up on socials mocking you and asking for amp info right? Please do, continue. You are really helping us out quite a bit!

Also Larry, per the norm, you are wrong ???

I haven't specified my former comment to someone, but simply spoke in general.
I even can't speak about someone specific, as long as I don't know about the respective company's business internals.
But...
... by looking at the Pumpkin's price once again I even guess, that it isn't a revised NATAS, but rather a revised and renamed Satan?

The two gain channels are based on some modded Marshalls, namely the Evil Pumpkin for Jason and the Killer Kali mods. The clean channel idk but it sounds pretty great from Kevin's vid (Backroom Studios bro). My guess is it's based on a Twin but idk.

You know, the "Fartin" thing was funny at first, now it's just old and tired. Try to find some new material, it's just getting embarrassing now.

Here, let me feed you some, try this, then you won't sound like a broken record so often.

Hmm... not only the circuit is adopted of my DINO, but even the Power & Standby switches, the front grill is adopted of Bernd Stephan's Stevens Pound Cake.
What's MF's brain work at all? The name plate?

Why not be honest and upfront and let the customer decide. Why lie? Tell customers upfront that it is a Fartin copied design from XXX builder and built by a 3rd party in YYY. It's called the truth.

Maybe next time we should have Mike run on down to the local automotive school and snag a few guys to pay $7.85 an hour to solder with him

That sounds like something the Fartin Fuhrer would do. Cheaper, the better. Why not hire 1 or 2 helpers, teach them how to do things the right way like Soldano, Bogner, Fryette, KSR, and most every other amp company does it. The right way. The honest way. I know this is a foreign concept to y'all.

Also, no matter how often you claim they are being made in China, they are made in the U.K.,

By whom???? Marshall, Orange, HiWatt? Why not name this mystery super secret 3rd party ghost builder. Post it in the description. Why the cloak and dagger bs? Sound familiar kids. Where are the transformers coming from? There are only about 10 or so well known large scale manufacturers, not 100. And save the bs that they are hand-wound, custom, special, blah, blah, blah... or are they some no-name knock-off from China with shiny end-caps? Like the amp... Chinese pcbs, chassis, sockets, pots, and parts... assembled in the UK by Space Ghost and friends... and sold to unwitting people who paid in-advance. No lube included.

That sounds a lot more accurate. Honesty. Google it.

Presumably it's Dan Gower, a Marshall modder located in the U.K. who's assembling the pre assembled units to amps?

At least MF also has handed my circuit designs to him, so that he can mod Marshalls also based on my intellectual properties.

And yes - I've also had a Gower modded Marshall already on my bench, have assembled it with NOS Tungsram's and have accomplished still some minor tweaks after my current technical level, to make it sound right

It is called "your truth" fella. Not "the truth". You really need to take your meds. Seriously, I am embarrassed for you man. I might be more inclined to take you seriously if I wasn't laughing as hard as I am, in a plane at 30,000 feet. I might just have a drink and let this keep going. I can't believe how many people your nonsense is driving to us right now. I truly appreciate it!

The absolute lack of knowledge and pure speculation is astounding. ??? I only have about 2 more hours of this flight and this is far more entertaining than this "Maleficient" movie they are showing, so please do continue!

Maybe because it isn't any of your business and you would have no idea why another ghost builder might not want to announce whom they are building for, and I am not breaking an NDA, ( which, if you knew anything about any of this, which you do not, you would know that is about as standard as it gets), and getting sued so I can try to make a forumite that has nothing better to do than troll, happy, and feed him more information to spin to fit his own absolutely ignorant narrative. ?

 

[engage757]

Also, note, above, Mike is ripping off a videogame called Fortnite too.



You guys are just too much, that's it, I'm having a drink. It's 5 o'clock somewhere and it doesn't count when you are flying.

Big difference in an amp that is ‘based on’ vs a straight up clone, with inferior parts and a small number of value changes, no?
I think yes.
I mean, cmon... who out there wouldn’t be pissed if someone you shared your creation with, suddenly started up a company shortly after selling YOUR DESIGN????

I can’t imagine this being ok with most on this forum.

Right. Playa. Answer the questions I posted above then.

Who is ghost-building the amp in "the UK"? What transformers are in it?

If business was booming, you'd wouldn't be here doing damage control and trying to salvage sales. I love your poor deflection skills and refusing to answer basic questions customers will have about Fartin's products.

The 33 pedal was an "original design" too... right. Keep on shoveling. It's about up to your waist now. What design will we rip-off next!!!

That's a possibility. As well as the newly reformed "HiWatt" company or some have mentioned a new company called Dover amps. Whoever it is, it speaks volumes as to why the Fartin A$$ Amps team wants to treat it's customers like mushrooms about their products...

feed them sh!t and keep them in the dark... until it is too late... I mean take delivery of said product.

 

[engage757]

I don't have to do damage control or salvage anything. There are only a couple shittalkers, and no one takes them seriously, kind of like you, which is evidenced by absolutely no one coming to your defense outside of the same three people. I've been answering customer questions all day thanks to you!

Also, not a "Playa" thing, sorry to disappoint, in this decade, air travel is a relatively inexpensive form of travel, albeit a bit boring, so I appreciate the entertainment.

Meanwhile, we have sold out of the SIGIL first run! I better get to "salvaging those sales" because some guy with intestinal problems hiding behind a screen name on a forum is concerned about our well-being! Whatever shall we do? *Screams in horror and runs to hide*

Just so you realize it, for the hundredth time, I'm only engaging with you for some cheap laughs at this point, you aren't getting anywhere or helping yourself at all. Back to responding to emails and messages from actual customers now!

 

[engage757]

Since we are getting a bunch of views thanks to ol' Wizard trying so hard up there, here's a video of Teemu from Wintersun playing the EVIL PUMPKIN at NAMM! Enjoy guys! Super shredder!

 

[Wizard of Ozz]

I can't do damage control or salvage anything. Man I suck. Thought selling this ripped off gear would be easy. There are a bunch of shittalkers now, and people are starting to take them seriously, I better ask Fartin for a raise. I've been talking sh!t and lying to customer questions all day thanks to you! You suck!

Also, not a "Playa" thing, sorry to disappoint, in this decade, air travel is a relatively inexpensive form of travel, albeit a bit boring, so I appreciate the entertainment. Everyone likes to talk about flying and drinking in an amp forum. It was the best I could come up with okay! This job is hard. I drink to forget!

Meanwhile, we have sold out of the SIGIL first run! Suckers! Reminder to self: transfer that money to the Swiss account. I better get to "salvaging those sales" because if we don't sell out this first-run... I don't get paid.

Just so you realize it, for the hundredth time, I'm only engaging with you for some cheap laughs... yeah, yeah... that's the ticket. Deflect, lie, deflect. People will buy it. Yeah. Back to more lying deceitful emails and messages to actual customers now! I need some time to think up more bs to feed them thanks to you!

Fixed.

PLEASE do the Fortnite.

I think I read something about the game's world being sucked into a black hole or something? Not a gamer, hoping I got that right. The Fortnite Black Hole has a nice ring to it!
