The shelves are overfull. I must cull. All prices are shipped CONUS, but don't include fees. Happy for you to use G+S, just add 3%.
Wizard MCII KT-75 - $4k
Very clean 2024 Wizard MC-II KT-75. Classic MC-II tone, but even more hi-fi. I dig this, but I dig my MTL more and it scratches enough of the wizard itch. Comes with a 1-button footswitch.
Deliverance 120 II - $1600
A stouter version of its younger sibling the Deliverance 60. Plays in the same ballpark as the wizards, but there’s just a little more vintage to the sound and vibe. But it’s thick enough to hang with the MTL. If I didn’t really love that damn MTL I’d sell the wizards and keep this and save a crapload of money. Comes with a 2-button footswitch.
JPTR Titan - $3000
One of the first ever made. Astonishingly, frighteningly loud (250 watts, though switchable to 50 or 15). A clean channel that its a perfect pedal platform. Usually when people say that, they just mean… it doesn’t suck with pedals. In this case, it’s more that the channel has massive headroom to take on the gnarliest pedals and a flexible but musical EQ that leans a bit dark. The drive channel is lower gain than you expect, it’s British-leaning but kinda unique. Tube-driven boost works on both channels and will pump some fire but still has enough in the tank for a boost out front. EQ offers a modern switch to slide the mids lower and both channels have fat/bright pulls. I will miss this one, though I think I have some things going to fill the gap. Comes with a 2-button footswitch.
Blackhawk Modded VTM 120 - $1200
This is a Peavey VTM 120 that has been extensively modified by Brooks from Blackhawk Amps. The modifications include:
* Removal of molex connectors for heaters, replace with 18 AWG
* Electrolytics replaced
* Resonance Control Added
* Blocking caps replaced with Orange Drop and Mallory
* Tone stack frequency control (left -> doom, right -> death)
* Brooks' custom values for all response modifications
* Choke added
* Bias Control Added
* KT77s installed
This thing is truly a beast. Loves to be boosted.

Trade list is... really small. Would have to be a killer deal. Nonetheless looking for:
* Something in the modern metal guitar family (Mayones, Aristides, Skervesen, Hapas, RIP, even ESP, etc.) Key is that it is 6 strings, single scale, no trerm, and has a neck that isn't really thin (ideally .8-.88 or bigger).
* Pretty full up on amps. if you got something unique send it over, but generally it's getting harder and harder to decide what must go. One weird call-out, I want a fender prosonic. Otherwise, maybe a Carsten's Grace or Empire?
* G12-65s, Eminence Swamp Thangs, Jensen Nighthawk or Electric Lightning. Maybe other cool speakers for high gain? 8 ohm please.
