...is TWO Fortin amps!! :rawk: \:D/ :clap: :2thumbsup: :worship:

Custom Cali ++ has landed and it is fucking killer. Been wanking away this morning and it is fucking ridiculous. Between my two Fortins, I have zero amp gas and am completely happy. This amp is so versatile it's unreal. So far I have dialed in total brutality, stock 2203, and crystal clean sounds with ease. Haven't even used the clipping/sat circuit and probably never will. Not needed at all. This amp is fucking sick, plain and simple. Mike Fortin continues to blow me away with his awesome amplifiers and overall badassness. No one does it beter. Clips to come...

EDIT: Wanted to give you guys some details about the amp. This Cali ++ is a one of a kind custom amp. This is a total rebuild and not a mod. It has the standard Cali mod plus and added 4th foot switchable tube gain stage, full clean channel, sweepable mid control with range selector for two completely different types of sweepable mids (one marshall-ish and one more modern), feel control, sweepable depth control, and a glass control which changes the sound and feel of the power section. It also has a tube fx loop with foot switchable bypass, and 2nd master volume that is also foot switchable.

wow, looks so nice too!!!! Love the Orange.

I need to start saving. Would love to try a Fortin.

I do have a question for you. And Im a Fortin noob so forgive me.

This was a Marshall amp that he modded for you? If so wouldnt it be cheaper to just buy a similar Fortin stock?
 
Killer! :rock: You know, ever since Mike modded my VTM, I have had ZERO desire for another amp. Sure there are some amps I would love to play(like both of yours) and at some point I will have a use for another but I can get every sound I want with what I have. I rarely touch the knobs. It has a clipping circuit switch and a power section grind type switch that are both super cool sounding and yet I only occasionally play with them. The straight in tone is just killer. And that's just a mod to a VTM. His ground up builds........well fuck. You know. :lol: :LOL: Can't wait for the clips.

I have had the orange one for 2 years. The new one is the one on the bottom. Both amps are complete rebuilds, not really mods. The only things left that are original are basically the transformers. Everything else has been replaced and added on.
 
Inbound 2 channel Cali coming for me too....the Fortin fetish continues :thumbsup:
 
Mike knows how to deliver incredible knock, kerrang and BITE!!

One of these days, I'll simply just have to have....a few :D

CONGRATS!!! Kill it for the rest of the day, go apeshit till yer fingers are sore, then think about us clip starved cats when you can :lol: :LOL:

Serious props and congrats though, wicked buy!!

Awesome Jas! Can't wait to hear it. Honestly, the clean channel is a necessity. I love my two channel Cali.
 
Sweet! I've been waiting to hear a clip from this one since you first posted about it :D
 
Officially on my GAS list :thumbsup:

One of those amp companies I just haven't tried for some reason. Looking forward to the clips!

Killer Jason, glad you are digging the amp! Welcome home and great talking with you :rock:
