Fryette Classic XXX

Any other info? These were “only” 100 watts per side?

I’d love to get one, but it’ll be much easier for me to justify if it could power a bass rig too. 100 watts would be a bit light.

I had one of the originals, and I'm pretty sure it was 120 watts per side. Think I still have the manual somewhere.

Weird, I found an online manual and it was 120W (or 105W with both sides simultaneously:

So, perhaps it's not an exact reissue?
 
That SC20 Head sounded pretty nice. Wish he had actually played it at volume rather than just swell up to it on the guitar. Wanted to hear how tight it was. Hard to tell on a power amp on a video. You need to hear how they respond in person because ultimately so much of the tone your hearing is the preamp. Now that I know my recent Mesa Quad acquisition is a keeper wouldn’t mind a PA for it. For now though it sounded incredible using the return on my MK V.
A chrome face VHT would look cool as shit with it.

strategy 400/500 would do the job
 
Skoora I would look at a Strategy 400 or 500 to use with a Mesa Quad Preamp. The Mark amps voice always reminds me of the 6L6 thing. If your not using stereo effects I would just use the Mark V or Tremoverb poweramp. Maybe run both.

I think your right. My MK V has 34’s In it but I still run the T-Verb with 6L6’s. Running the pre into both those heads could be fun. Hopefully I don’t get into ground differential hell though...lol
Then I can bide my time on a good deal on a PA. Realistically I don’t need more than a 50 watt PA, not playing out. The idea of having a Strategy 400 in the basement is pretty funny...and awesome at the same time.
