FORTIN's Evil Pumpkin – Made in China?

[novosibir]

How much for and how do I get one of those Larry preamps though?

If you're seriously interested getting such a preamp built, then come via my email for further details.

Just to let you know up front:
CLEAN = a Fender Blackface-ish clean sound
CREAM = a Fender Bassman-ish or a Marshall JTM45-ish (by your choice) clean/crunch sound
BRITISH = the crunch/crush mode of my DINO's British channel (not the 'Jon Schaffer' HotRod mode)
SCREAM = the Scream channel of my DINO's Scream channel and only in this channel the Bite & Punch controls are active
The preamp is supplied with a stereo parallel/serial FX loop, of corse tube based

Will chopping off dicks and death threats hurt his lawsuit chances?

One of them being: #1 AND #2 combined. Larry supporters who genuinely think he may have had his intellectual property stolen and also think Larry is mentally unstable.

I think Larry was naive and too trusting. I'm willing to believe that Fortin products might share similar designs with Larry's, and perhaps other designers. The bigger question is to what extent, and by what means. Using an internet forum for making those determinations is just absurd. All it amounts to here is theatrics. Wake me when we have a civil verdict or a settlement.

from most accounts and efforts on amp and pedal clone forums they pretty much spot on copies. The topologies are usually spot on, and changes are typically replacing a pot with a resisitor or vice versa. Sometime removing a control, or replacing a value of a component with another with a value to fall within the natural 10-20% tolerances.

Larry got to ask. Engl was alive in Germany 88-89 did see those circuits. I had a straight 100 head and was a good amp also hard to find now/ different animal than Engl now.

A one rack space 2 channel shared EQ preamp, clean and scream, with a foot switchable on/off krull mode (overdrive-boost) would be my favorite.

Garry WINO? Made China?

Couldn't find a Garry WINO (Larry DINO) preamp, but I found this:

Here's a 2 channel independent EQ's and 3 voices. Pure Evil channel is basically in crunch/crush mode and if boosted (tube stage added) it's the well known Jon Schaffer sound. Comes with additional input jack on the rear side, FX loop only for the Pure Bliss with Send & Return level controls and 2 transformer buffered outputs, to avoid ground loops:

Holy mother of preamps Larry!!! More than I could imagine. I'm drooling!

If he stole your work that would be enough for me to try to sue, if you have all that proof. On top of that what really makes me shake my head is that Fortin sent an attorney after a very small pedal maker for cloning and selling the Fortin 33. Which BTW was stolen from TC electronics.

Which pedal builder was that? I was hesitant on making the clones that I did. I always mentioned they were Integrated Pre clones when I built them for a handful of people.

Charvel Dan always posts in the same manner. I caught him several times.
Starts out decent. Then his true colors shows and gets tossed out.
Haven’t sensed him around in a while.

Can't you, as a moderator, see what IPs people are posting from? Like if a certain crazy someone were to come back or to even check if one person is posting on two different accounts?

Main guy can. Not us. Psycom is the one

So from what I have read there are 3 camps:

1 - Larry supporters who genuinely think he may have had his intellectual property stolen

2 - People who think Larry is mentally unstable and ranting with no objectivity

3 - Shitposters who probably have Kempers

To me having your IP stolen is absolutely something that should be brought up. It's like learning guitar for 10 years then someone just downloading your skills and going out to make money. I'm surprised to see people tell him to stop being a baby about. I'd be rightfully furious! Unsure to what the logic is there?

I don't really care too much for either side as it seems this 'feud' has brought out the worst of both sides

love you for it man!

#BoobCamp here! Plus I like Larry and his posts. Interesting comments, not a PC kind of guy, I like it. Plus I want one of those pre-amps.
