go 4 it

go 4 it

Considering it. I was planning to buy an old jmp and send to US but it would cost approximately 4k$ with all the shipping and stuff. I am not sure if they are vastly different

Thanks a lot! The Wizard MTL sounds bigger and more 3D but not as tight as the Folkesson with the metal switch engaged.

Is this a clipper mod or extra tube?

What is the switch on the left ?

Actually I am between a Bogner Snorkler and Folkesson MKV JMP from 1975. I know they are not the same amp but very hyped for Snorkler, also curious about the Folkesson. It seems extremely versatile and sounds great in your videos

I like how many classic sounds are still in the Folkesson. Segeborn has some cool vids that focus on the cleaner and medium gain tones and they sound great.

I've never tried the Bogner but the Folkesson is awesome. Really versatile as well.

Yes it's a screw, I watched it again

I know @ultimatemetalguitartones loves his and it does sound good. But the Mark VI I had was not good. Terrible amp. It’s now a GZ mod instead. He must have fucked mine up

Yeah I remember you mentioning that. Who knows!

It might depend on whether he tunes them for each amp or has made it more assembly line, in that the mod is all pre-built and just gets put in the amp and slapped with a ready to go sticker.
I found the same experience with a Soldano mod. My bandmate had a modded 800 that was amazing and because I was kind of bored and had owned my amp for 10 years, I got Soldano to do the same mod on my ‘78 2203. It wasn’t nearly as good. Softer, less raw and wild.
It may have been just what happens with the different internal voltages from the amp but it was a bummer all the same.
Looking at the internals you could see it was just a prebuilt board installed next to the input side of the original board. I doubt they tweak any values after.
