Fortin Demanufacture head !!!!

[Beyond Black]

I love me some Demanufacture tones. Still in my top five favorite tones of all time. Funny, my favorite is the Larry tones on Iced Earth's Something Wicked. Simply badass. Too bad his amps are 2 years and 6k.

Somebody tell me where these tones are for under 2k?

It's a different type of tone but equally as good or better imo if you like these kinds of mids.

Just over $2k, hand made, brand new and we are talking months not years.

Holy fuck that sounds killer!!! I will have one those someday!

If Mike does that I will buy it so fast. That is basically the tone in my head for years and years. I will 100% talk to him about this, if only because that would be an endgame amp for me! ? But seriously, it would be awesome to see what Dino and Mike could come up with that as a starting point! Next level amp would happen!

Drooling as I type this. Also, side note, I don't like red or camo, but Dino handed me his Ormsby awhile ago and I need to sell everything and buy one. Played great, like every Ormsby O have played, sounded great, and MAN, I guess I love red camo now, because I am GASsing like crazy for it!

I’m the “kid” who owns the Metalhead modded Marshall Dino mentions in the video.

The Fortin modded Marshall Dino currently owns is not a copy of my amp, he had that done long before he came in contact with me.

As he mentioned in the video, I didn’t want to sell the amp. Dino asked if I would be willing to let Mike document the circuit so he could have a copy built for himself. I told him I’d help any way I could, he had Mike get a hold of me and we eventually met up so he could check out the amp.

The reason Dino wanted my particular amp documented was because it was the only other Metalhead mod he’s heard that sounded like his original head that was stolen. Both Jerry from FJA (my local tech at the time) as well as Mike confirmed that my circuit has some differences from the usual Metalhead/Elan mods and preamps. I also own an Axis Excalibur EP-1, Elan Dino preamp pedal and have even tried another Metalhead 800... none of them sound anything like this one.

I just saw Jerry yesterday and sold him my Fryette Powerstation. He said he is getting ready to start back up doing mods/tech work. Now that he is local to me it's going to be nice to have someone who can do some out of the box tech work.

Hey guys, just want to clarify something here. This is an amp Mike is doing for Dino. Dino is a longtime friend of Mike's and a friend of mine for awhile too. Absolutely wonderful dude. We haven't discussed a production version at all yet, but the inboxes are blowing up, so just wanted to clarify that as of now, the conversation about a production model with this hasn't been had yet.

I say this though, as someone that has spent years chasing this tone, I 100% want this to happen, and I will be bringing it to Mike and Dino. Just wanted to clarify, as of right now, it is just for Dino. Cheers guys!

Thanks for the info man, at least you give us accurate drooling material. Lol

Let’s hope this thing comes to fruition for us all to enjoy!!!! I am on the wagon already to go, money in hand and all.

I really hope it happens! That tone is just perfect!

Yep, he’s just starting to get back into it. I sent him my Excalibur preamp about a week ago so he could make a few changes and get it closer to the sound of my Marshall. It sucks that I don’t have anybody close by for that kind of work anymore but he made the right move, there’s a lot more opportunity down there than central NY.
