The eagle has landed.
Only had time to unpack it.
It’s gorgeous!
Can’t wait to fire it up after work tonight.
Opinions to follow!!! :rock:

*****Updated: *****
Had a client cancel this am, so got to run upstairs and get a quick clip.
Not warmed up haha, but it shows how awesome this amp is.
Here’s a clip: it’s pumping through the Avatar cab. Perfect match.

Congrats! Can't wait to hear your review....

I'm gassing for the HiWatt Fortin, really dug those clips of 46-2....I did have 2 Cali modded Marshalls, one from Mike and the other from Dan Gower. Killer tone.
 
Dude it is such a sick amp. Nice to see Round 2 already sold out.
 
Whoa, that's a sweet lookin' amp :rock:

Congrats!!

Anxiously awaiting the review........
 
Somebody throw me some Jiff because I’m all jelly over here!
 
Dang dude i'm jealous! Mine won't be delivered til the end of the day next Monday :doh: So is the serial number the same as the reference number on the Fedex email? If so then i'm Cali #7 :rock:
 
Congrats! Had a modded marshall Cali from Fortin while back, very cool amp.
 
Looks awesome. Now that the wait is over, I wish I had ordered one. Lol
 
... I sense a head-to-head, Canadian vs Canadian comparison coming... eh?

:yes: :lol: :LOL:

Yeah, I’ve heard cool things about his modded Marshall’s. I think these production ones are supposed to be even better :rock:
I got to play it real low volume last night, and it’s a instant love affair. Let’s just say I’ll prob be offloading a few amps soon haha.

They are selling like hot cakes!
This thing is living up to the hype, the 5 min I’ve had with it were pure Ecstacy.

I’ve been wanting an actual fortin amp for a while. Not a modded one, but these production ones are special.

It fucking rips.
Your gonna love it. The attack is nuts and it’s stupid tight.
Hopefully that fuels your gas for the weekend :lol: :LOL: :lol: :LOL: :lol: :LOL: :D :thumbsup:
That’s correct on the number.
I had such a bitch of a time getting one. So many people crashing the server. Mike put this one aside for me, before the smoke cleared, def wanted to be in the first run of these :rock:
I remember we were chatting on Facebook. You got through pretty early in, if I remember right.

Thanks dude!
I know those Marshall mods can vary greatly. I know he’s making these new production versions to be a metal machine. It delivers. I’ve only had a few min with it.cant wait to dive in deeper.
It’s a beast!

We need clips!!

Thanks bud!
I took a super low volume clip last night, that actually sounds great. But.....
I’ll see if I can get a higher volume clip today during my break.

:rock: Should be a fire breather!

It’s blowing away my expectations so far...... It’s kinda what I’ve been looking for, for a while, it seems. (So far) hahaha :lol: :LOL:

Your gonna want one of these my friend.
Don’t hesitate. It’s easily climbing to the top already.
 
Here’s a clip:
I know there’s not much out. So wanted to get something up ASAP:

 
Goddamn that sounds good, that might be my favourite clip so far from you man. Just so much growl, and clarity.

P.s wtf did you do to your Slax??? Getting new tolex?
 
The Cali should sound badass mixed with with the Wizard - which I plan to experiment with.
I just picked up Cali #3 and will experiment with throwing it into a recorded mix with my MC2 and +/- the JP2C and JJ100.
It sounds like it will have some frequencies the others are not so pronounced in.
