Been 2.5 years since I paid for this and it finally arrived after long delay.

It can be used as a standalone 1W head or as a preamp (there's an internal dummy load for the power section I think). Sounds OK as a 1W amp by itself but really comes to life when slaved into a proper power amp.

It's definitely in a familiar ballpark - sounds a lot like my GP3. The Pittbull mode is similar to GP3's channel 3 and the Deliverance mode is similar to GP3's channel 2.

The cab sim is meh, as you would expect from an analog cab sim. It has a bit more tweakability than cab sims on lots of other heads/preamps, so you might be able to get away with it for going direct at gigs. But I wouldn't use it for recording really.

Re-amped from Ola Englund multitracks, taken from the deluxe version of Furor Incarnatus.
 
Sounds gnarly as fuck. I haven't had any amp GAS for like two years but this thing is rattling my chain. I think I'd dig it. You have a nice lineup there and I think this one sounds like it'll hold its own.

HNAD man!
 
Thanks guys!

Yeah VHT/Fryette stuff definitely have a special place in my rig. Nothing quite sound like these.
