If I get a chance tomorrow, definitely. It can get pretty dark and saturated or pretty tight with that snappy marshall mid bite. Im still figuring it out in my rig but im really enjoying it. The amp is pretty damn quiet too.
I can't wait to try mine. I haven't been this excited for an amp in a while. I've got an Uber Ultra that's been my go-to high gain amp for the last 6 months or so but I'm psyched to try something different. Your description has me even more excited man...

Got mine a few days ago and I'm very impressed with the amp. It's got a lot of range! It reminds me of several SK mods Shea's done in this one amp.
 
The heavy is all rumble and peaky top end to me. Not feeling it on any single note stuff. Rock settings sound over filtered and too tight. Doesn’t breath. Makes sense with what Jason said at the end about the design in relation to dumping bass in the front end. I like some squish and give and take with picking attack, so designs like this where all the low end comes at the end are not my cup of tea. Need that low end affecting the way the amp saturates. Definitely a very modern sound. I like my heavy a lot more vintage.
I believe I may be getting one for some demos… since we all dial stuff differently I’m interested to hear what it sounds like with my shit playing! Lol.

How does it compare to the SK? Different enough to merit owning both...don't care about the cleans
 
Not a fan of the cream 90 but, the amp sounds really cool 👍
My buddy has a 8ohm single cab with a creamback Alnico. It sounds like this. He had his EVH 50w 6L6 hooked up to it. Mind you, I have the EVH 50w Combo with Greenbacks...It was so different. His was way tighter and brighter. Wasn't bad at all, just very present.

Completely different from the SK's. You can dial it to get some of the the signature SK tones but right now with the setup I have been playing with it's Got a more modern feel and voice to it. It reminds me very close to the Vintage Modern mod Shea did. It's like that amp plus his normal production Sk's have been melded into this.
