Tonight I'm going to get try the New Bones amplifier from Fortin amplification.
As the name implies the BONES amp is just that, a stripped down “bare bones” amplifier. With modern styling and a simple & intuitive front panel layout

Mike Fortin, The Designer and manufacturer of the amp used to live on Long Island but he has since moved to Canada and is now in the process of launching his amp line. Mike is an amazing guitar player and tech who knows tone and he has some serious designs comming out in the near future including a 6 channel head with 46 relays and and all out metal amp called the NATAS :hys: The guy knows his stuff and I think that you will be hearing a lot about him in the years to come!.
This is another guy I know who deserves the best because he is such a good person.

On another note I will be getting to demo the amp with 2 killer guitar player that Mike hooked me up with!! Carl Roa and Joe Nardulli. Not only do I think that you should check out his amps when they are available but I think that you should check out Carl and Joe!! Im psyched for tonight and Im going to get my ass kicked by the amp and 2 killer guitar players!!

I'm interested to hear how that six channel beast sounds... :lol: :LOL:
 
With 46 relays I'd switch a whole nuclear powerplant though :D
(just kidding)
 
Have a great time Ralph! I look forward to hearing your thoughts on his new amps! :rock:
 
Oh man I love that youtube vid of Carl and Ethan at that small gig, fucking that is what music is about!!!! If I was there and saw that I would have been one happy man, proper pain being served that night :rock:

That Bones is pretty loaded if you ask me, has some very cool features and external bias points are always a plus AND you can request other options as well.

To bad Ralph C. is going to demo it and not Gainfreak :no: :emofag: :grim: :hys: :hys:

Power section fused in pairs so you can still play if you lose a tube, that is pretty cool. digging the L/M/H switch as well, should make this amp cover some ground.

WTF is a KT100?!?!?!?!? Holy shit what would the power output be with the amp loaded with those????? Oh man that would rule if they are 88s on roids :rock:
 
Awesome Ralph. It must be good to be the king. :lol: :LOL:

Doesn't Fortin amps post here?

Yup!! Mike used to work for Marshall and he has been in or owned just about every amp you can imagine. The guy is brilliant and has an ear for tone IMHO. The cool thing is that all of his amps will be voiced diferently, so if you don't dig one im pretty sure that you will almost certainly like another!!
