They just recovered the MN-100

I really wanted to get by and check that amp out but Peavey was not on the main NAMM floor this year and the booth was a pain in the ass to get to. That and I was busy as hell...However, I did talk to Alex about it and I will be going to see him play next week and he is going to let me check it out if there is time. Hopefully there will be.

This amp sounds killer wonder if it is identical to Sig model.





After seeing the pics above and seeing Alex rock this thing in your vid, I am guessing that it is indeed one in the same.

Love the covers he plays at 2:15! Alex rocking some Round and Round and Godzilla!
 
Makes sense , he played the MN100 on That Metal Show. He makes that amp sound great
 
I have this half stack, is a great amp I wonder how many they are out there?
 
Badass guitarist and that amp does his playing justice.
 
Holy cow, this thread is old enough to get “escorted” to a swank uptown party.
 
Yes, look only but is not, I open the amp to see also if peavey had something from them inside and nothing is peavey all is Budda made very high-quality stuff.


Budda is Peavey, been that way for years
 
Have any of you looked at a Marshall that's a fkn ugly amp always has been. Amongst others. Throw the fuckin amp in a roadcase n play. Who stares at it anyway ?

What is a good looking amp anyway?
This is.

Sounds damn good too.

Fwiw myself I think if they had went with black or black chrome knurled knobs, single pinstripe, and a smaller AS badge or simple smallish signature plaque the Budda would look pretty good. It's already a busy amp with all the knobs, and that would all help it look much less so.

Anyone ever play one?
The cleans are amazing the gain is like a superdrive from budda, and the high gain channel sounds pretty american not british, very mesa style in my opinion, very high quality the sounds just like budda amps, the pots feel great the amps is very well built and has options that I have never seen in other high end amps, like individual FX loop per channels that can be activated by footswitch, also the reverb is top notch.
 
In case someone is interested im selling the alex skolnick halfstack, in mint condition.
