I got rid of the shiny plate than nobody could read and am using this flat gold. Anyone like these Q parts Gold Vine knobs?

Its got Dual MV (footswitcheable) and a clean volume (footswitcheable)
all three volumes have push pulls. Lead and Crunch have mid and gain boosts for lower volumes and the clean has a hot boost. More gain and treble like a cranked AC30 top boost.

There are two of these now and the third being built this week. Start at $1800 but I usually cut insane deals. I have metro loop available and I do a full blown tube loop as well.

The MV's on the clean and lead can be changed to jose type clipper circuits in a heartbeat if wanted. Im looking for a sales guy somewhere not in CA. Ill sell an amp at basically cost and pay pretty good comissions on sales.

thanks to the best forum on the net..... You guys rock :rock: :rock: :rock:

I'm not a big fan of the knobs, but the rest of it looks really good. It's something I may look into real soon. :rock:
 
Just being totally honest here but I don't dig the knobs and I think that the logo would be better if the X))> was gone. Other than that it looks awesome!

What makes the amp a "Hybrid"? Does that refer to the fact that it is a Cameron/Dyer design or something else? If so, what does that mean? Is it solid state clipping like so many of Mark's amps? Sorry for all the questions!

Mark did the crunch and lead channel. No diodes, it has a different lead boost effect. Hard to explain but if you pm me ill try, if you have some circuit knowledge.. its pretty cool. I think it would actually kick ass with some zener clippage. Number two has a zenner or two.

Both builders have some screws loose, and I'm not talking about the craftsmanship of their products.
 
Looks awesome Jerry, but not a fan of the knobs here either.

Looking forward to some clips.
 
working on a new logo too. anyone know a legit dude?

how bout these pedal knobs. Pete from cornerstone liked em on there.
 
I like the knobs....very Middle Earth of you!! I have a couple logo designers I can put you in contact with, PM me.
 
I like the black knobs.. kind of Bognerish with the colours which is good because the subconcious right away thinks "quality" but at an affordable price! I think the old knobs while interesting, make me think that the amp should come with a Yngwie style pirate shirt or a hat with a plume in it. Ditch them, they are too 17th century. I like the logo but maybe minus the characters at the end as already mentioned. I like what I see though.... judging by your input and advice over at the metro forum I have no doubt that you've got a quality product there. With "vintage" JCM and JMP heads going for 1250+ these days, people would be foolish not to consider your builds with all their tonal options.
 
Jerry...Is this a new model or is this the one you had at James' Amp Fest? Really interested in hearing it. Nice work.

i love the basic look of the amp but yeah the flashy appointments are unnecessary.
black knobs are cool. logo is kinda girly.
