    Is there ONE amp that you could get by with as your single amp?

    I want to be a monogamist when it comes to amps. That said; I own 7 or 8 presently! I could be totally happy with just my Morris UK68. Splendid amplifier in every way. The UK68, with its foot switchable boost, and my guitar’s volume knob get me all I really need. I have a Metroplex MKII that...

    Yo. Any Metroplex MKII owners up in here?

    So, my Metro MKII 100 watt arrived! It’s fucking bonkerz good. Screaming, growling, plexi-about-to-blow-up tone. MV, check. Loop, check. 2 channels, check. More to follow.

    Western Electric USA Made 12AX7 Updates

    Sorry if this has been covered but: Does anyone know if it actually makes sense for them to do this? Is the demand big enough? Are the Russian, Chinese etc guys unable to keep up? Or is it a thing where they’d actually charge $100+ for 12ax7s and try to start a “high end” market type deal...

    New Marshalls for Steve Jones

    Me too. I know the Pistols weren’t considered crazy tone-chasers or anything—at least not to my knowledge—but I think those records sound great.

    Morris UK68 Amplifier

    Oh man I’m foaming at the mouth!! The UK68 is so damn good, and while it is definitely plexi/brown sound territory, it has it’s own distinct thing going on. Glen really is on some next level shit. Can’t wait to give the Metro a spin?

    Morris UK68 Amplifier

    Absolutely. I also have a 100 watt Metroplex MKII inbound!! Similar to the UK68. Once the Metro arrives, I’m offloading a bunch of my amps. Between the UK68 and Metro, I should be all set. If anyone is interested in a Friedman Smallbox or BE100 (with 1st channel modded to plexi by Dave F.)...

    Morris UK68 Amplifier

    Ok my UK68 came today!! Played her for about 2 hours. Phenomenal amplifier, in every way. Stellar cranked plexi tone, great touch sensitivity and dynamics, lush harmonic content, cleans up with guitar’s volume beautifully. Ran her through my 412 with GBs and V30s. Put some delay and reverb in...

    Morris UK68 Amplifier

    Glen’s Instagram and facebook have a lot UK67/68 content lately. Seems like there are more of them out in the wild now? I’d love to hear about them!

    Tell me about your experiences with Morris amps

    Ok; I have a Perplex’d 3 Sig at my house right now. Stellar craftsmanship, layout etc. Killer tone. However; I do find it a bit stiff under the fingers, not much “chew.” And it’s a bit nasally or buzzy—-something in the upper mids. But it’s a good 5 years old and I don’t know how well it’s...

    Tell me about your experiences with Morris amps

    That’s awesome! Yeah his knowledge seems vast and unique. Man, if I lived 5 minutes away from him, he’d probably have to get a restraining order because I’d be constantly bugging the shit out of him!!??

    Tell me about your experiences with Morris amps

    Yeah I’ve heard a lot of praise for the Morris MV design over the years. Personally, MV is a tool I use mostly for live shows or rehearsal—so I can sit in that good/sweet spot in the overall mix. I’m not much of a bedroom player. (Actually, I am. But I just forgo the amp in that situation.)...

    Tell me about your experiences with Morris amps

    Not sure. He emailed me the other day and asked what color tolex I wanted, that’s a good sign! I’ll post if/when I have an ETA. Man, I’m so excited about this amp!?

    Negative. I ordered new from Glen. Someone is selling a UK in Mass? On Reverb or something?

    Tell me about your experiences with Morris amps

    Pulled the trigger on a UK68! I’m totally losing my shit. Curiousity, anticipation, excitement and so on—you know how it is!! I’d love to hear any and all thoughts, experiences, opinions etc on the UK68/67—or any other Morris amp that you own/owned or have played, especially his plexi type...

    When you’re not feeling an amp you once loved …

    Really interesting post/question. I gotta say, I had an epiphany a while back and it really struck me: I realized that, when it comes to chasing tone, my mood has a huge impact on what I dig. Seems like a small factor, but IME, for me, it’s impact is massive. I can play a rig and find it...

    Morris UK68 Amplifier

    Glen was just telling me about that Ukrainian teacher that he had back in the day. He was an old school tube guru, so to speak; so Glen got some deep and heavy wisdom from studying with him. Might be safe to say he knows stuff that a lot of other guys might not. Yeah, I’m really stoked and...
