This Hiwatt is one I’ve been interested to try. Clips I’ve heard sound really great. Seems like the EQ is dialed in just about perfectly. Need to try one some day.

Apparently the circuit is pretty Larry-ish. Takes a lot of ideas from the Larry layout.

How is the loop on the amp, if you’ve tried it? I want to say it’s a passive, not active design.

Oh shit now youve done it. Larry calling Larry Come in Larry :unsure:

Glad to see this amp getting some attention again! I’ve had the Super-Hi since Oct 2018 and am still very pleased with it.

Thanks for the comments on the posted video
(I am the guy on the left). As Bram576 said, for Death Atlas we blended the Super-Hi and a 6505. For our new record we again used the Super-Hi but this time went with a 6534 mixed in. In my opinion the overall guitar tones are more aggressive this time around. To be sure, there are other elements (bass tone and mixing choices) in play to bolster that impression, but to me everything just sounds angrier.

Welcome and thanks for the input. ?
 
Get on some Mississippi Queen...,
-if you know what I mean??-

I wondered about those bad boys also.
-And the Fuzz pedal they had,
but it never got released.
I bet a BigMuff sounds rad through that amp!
Congrats and let it rip.
