Nice metal tone man! Those stealth amps are so much fun to play. Was this 6L6, EL34, Blue or Red channel?

Thanks man. Yeah, they really are fun to play. Tons of chunk and gain. It’s the Blue channel on the 6L6 version.
 
That sounds killer! Nice heavy, chunky tone. I’m liking the Blade in your clip. Not a fan of the Grind or 33. They over tighten and sound thin. Is the Blade much different than those?

Thanks man. The Stealth isn’t an amp I typically boost, so I was taken aback when I discovered how well they go together.

The Fortin DNA is still prevalent in the Blade, so it’s closer to the Grind and 33 than to a tubescreamer for example; however, it’s also different enough where I could see one liking it while not being into the Grind and 33. I find the Blade to have a different mid range voicing and overall be a bit more open and explosive with how it hits the amp.
