Fortin Sigil

[psychodave]

Just my opinion but there’s no way Fortin would waste time and money on a production release of a one-off orange amp that almost no one knows or cares about.
He’s already got the Sigil and Hex drive confirmed for NAMM. That’s a ton of work and planning just for those two products alone.

It sounds like your opinion is wrong, they’ve all but confirmed it’s happening. And I’m sure it’ll sell

Doesn’t make business sense to me, but I’ll gladly be wrong.
Many more people would be interested in a Natas/Satan, don’t know if the Sigil is that or if it’s own variation on the circuit.

Sure it does. When you run out of ideas you just redo what you’ve already done. Trust me, it happens all of the time. Take your same design, make a few tweaks and call it something else. Ta daaaa!

But, but, but... Mark Fartin would NEVER do that. He is an honest, upfront, trustworthy builder? Right... oh... wait a mintue. I thought we were talking about someone else. LOL!

Is MetroAmps still building this thing and the evil pumpkin or do we have a new proxy builder in the mix?

 

[cardinal]

it looks awful but I suppose that doesn't really matter. What is it supposed to sound like? What kind of circuit is in there?

Metro only built the later Meshuggahs.

Not sure who is doing the newer amps, but the address on the current Calis is listed as Babylon NY. Build quality on the Cali looked decent from the gut shots I saw.

Whered you find a cali gutshot? Ive been trying to find one to no avail. Link?

 

[LunatiBSW]

I can assure you the Cali is built meticulously and heavy duty.
Very clean and robust.

Just bought a Hex Drive from his web site, it’s up now.
Sigil not available yet, wish it wasn’t 6V6.
Also there are cab descriptions in the online store as well for a 4x12, 2X12, and 1x12!

Looking forward to hearing this. Just heard a phone clip of the evil pumpkin and it sounds amazing.

 

[crankyrayhanky]

I wish the Sigil had big glass like the MT PRS lunchbox or Marshall offerings. Could still be cool though...

 

[maddnotez]

That price is great. Wondering how 20w of Fortin would hang with a band.
