He’s a monster player. I’m gonna try to make a trip up there and hear them side by side for myself. I’m curious. I’ll also bring either my Atomica or Aldrich up to compare
He also has a ccv and it’s one of his favorites
The only Fortin amp I ever tried was a Natas and I didn’t care for it. It sounded a bit synthetic to me, too smooth/not enough growl on powerchords and while it was tight, there are many amps out there that are tighter. I was told it was Fortin’s attempt at the Elan Metalhead. It had though a metallic quality to it that I liked
You should do a little amp comparison video. That would be cool to see a Meshuggah, Atomica, CCV, Jubilee, and Aldrich all in one video.
If it’s just an iPhone clip don’t bother. They will all sound the same anyway.
This iPhone clip came out great.

I made another one in response to the Maxwatt. My Aldrich cops that amps tone as well. Let’s hope the Maxwatt is an original design and not a Cameron Aldrich copy.
Just cause you said it I hope it is an exact Cameron Aldrich. Then you and the other handful of people who have them won’t be so exclusive...
Only time will tell if it’s original or another clone. Not everyone can be an original thinker and designer. Imitation is the biggest form of flattery.
Either way it won’t sound like the one in my clip. Mine has a bunch of different features and as you heard, it can go from 80’s to modern just by moving one knob. You should hear it when I re-EQ it.
