New Fryette Deliverance Series II

I couldn't find it on their website..

I'd like a closeup of the faceplate..

They’re being advertised by various retailers. I’m sure it will be an awesome amp, but I wouldn’t shell out the $2,499 price I have seen. I’ll stick with my $700 used Deliverance I.

 

[skullfxr]

Fryette is great and all, but that is not enough bang for the buck IMO at that price. I love my sig x, and some day will get an UL, or maybe a D120 I, but I would not pay over $1k

 

[tubortski]

I really dug the D120. Would do again if the updated one is available used.

So, with these features you have IMO a 3 channel amp. Less mode, with a boost pedal for rhythm and with the boost off you can EASILY dial a nice clean in by dropping your guitar volume. The best amp IMO that cleans up like that, by far. Then, foot switch to more and you are in heavier territory, and hit a pedal for more if needed. Everything anyone ever wanted in that amp as far as improvements; Fryette did them. Very cool.

Cool, but will the Deliverance 412 ever be available with Fanes as they show on their site?

I’m with Krull, they seem to have serious supply line issues.

The D 120 is a killer amp, and this new revision takes it to another level.
The new selling price of $2499 is actually good value for a high end amp compared to some of the other options available in the retail market.
And make no mistake, Fryette amps are definitely high end amps. Build quality and circuit design are top drawer. They sound phenomenal!
The problem for Fryette is that their amps don't command a high $$ on the used market, and this really skews the perception of their amps.
If original D-120's are selling for a grand, I get why people would be reluctant to pony up for this new one.
It's an unfortunate situation for Fryette, but anyone who's owned one of these amps knows that an original D-120 for anything less than $1500 is a freakin' steal!
Hands down one of the best values available for an absolutely devastating amp.
I hope the new D-120 does well.....I need more info, but I'm interested........

Well said. When you compare what a new BE or SS or JJ go for, close to 4K with tax, while these are different tone wise they have at least the same if not better note articulation/clarity, these are a good value at 2400. Yes used they go for 50% of what they were new, but isn't that normal for any amp? Honestly the original D60 can be had for 700, I'd guess these may show up at 1200? Tone for tone I put the Deliverance right up there with the best amps I've owned..Wizard, C+, SLO, Cameron modded Marshalls, D60/120. Fantastic amps.

Never tried a Deliverance. I had a Sigx for a while, which I thought was supposed to be the 3 channel version of the Deliverance. The Sig had a lot more features than this new one and the used prices are very fair.

I owned a newer series one D120. I thought there was to much of a volume difference from less to more to be usable and that I didn’t like the feel of less filtering with no choke and 420v plate voltage. Cool sounding amp not my thing.

This is very well stated IMO. For whatever reason these amps just seem to not have caught on like some other higher dollar amp brands but IMHO are every bit as good tonally speaking. As far as build quality they look pretty solid I guess. I'm no expert but I've been in the two I've owned and they seem solid enough.

As far as tone goes, I think they are right up there with the Wizard(s) I own(d). SUPER articulate, dynamic and punchy. I owned a D60 with factory loop and it came as close as anything to being able to hold its own side by side with the MCII, not quite the monster the Wizard is but as close as anything else I've had. The Quick rod was another that was pretty close, but that's another topic. They all share the same attributes: Clarity, depth, punch, a less compressed & more open gain structure.

Just grabbed a CL50 and over one month in it's still blowing my mind how good this amp is; like exceptionally good. Such a responsive, articulate organic gain structure. Not near the low end the D60 has but still gets it when you wind it up & has this aggressive authoritative bark to it that the D60 did not have. Sounds REALLY good at lower volumes for when the ears need a break. I finally have an UL on the way after all these years of wanting try one & am very curious what it will bring to the table.

New value on the Fryette stuff IMHO is on par with other higher priced amps, but the used value is insanely good if not one of the best values; if your into the unique feel and gain structure these amps exhibit of course.

I'd like to demo one of these. I played a Deliverance 60 years and years ago. And I remember liking how it sounded but it didn't have a loop and that is a deal breaker for me.

 

[skullfxr]

The loop is a deal breaker for me to. Massive tones though.

I love fryette though so underrated, just like Rivera is underrated massive amps up there with the big boys popping in at under $1k used. Just flat out good tone and not a whole lot of press. I dunno.

 

[stephen sawall]

Im looking forward to checking it out.

Ditto. For me? I trust in Steve's wares - blindly. I may not go ape and buy the thing saying it's my end all be all, but typically? His amps are dope, and his tone is "his". His amps roar.

The Sig had a lot more features than this new one and the used prices are very fair.

A little bit 'too' fair when I was selling mine.
I had to let it go for chump change, since there were almost no takers.
A great amp with great features, but some parts of it could be better. If the Lead channel was something Engl/Soldano-ish and the clean channel more Mesa Mark clean, it would have stayed. Rhythm channel is the bomb on that amp and the fx-loop design is great; in serial mode the blend knob works as a 2nd master volume, which is footswitchable. Put no fx in the loop and crank the mix knob above 3 o' clock and you've got yourself a solo boost.

That is the same thing with Splawn. They are so cheap used, it's hard to beat the tone and quality of a Splawn for the dollar, just as fryette. Makes them appear to be bottom drawer, but they are not.

Personally I could never justify the cost of a Friedman, bogner, etc at $4k. That is just me though. But at $1k Splawn and fryette are no less of an amp. The $4k is almost just the bit of exclusivity.
